Anyone watching 90s TOTP/Take That on BBC2?

I'm having fun reminiscing 😁

Yes, we are too!

I am. Don’t know this song.

I think 1993 was the best year musically! Really diverse. I am biased as I was 13 and had the Now tape.

That's what the TOTP shows remind me of Misty! My parents didn't buy me music so I listened to my friend's Now tapes religiously! I was 11 in '93!

Loved dance music, pop music and Britpop

Yes we watched it, brought back a lot of memories from my childhood. I was Googling what they are all up to these days and apparently Jason Orange has completely gone off grid - has anyone seen him since 2014?

There's more discussion here!

I have really enjoyed the TOTP shows. I always wonder looking back - do you think the audience were on drugs? I mean in the 90s...

Does anyone know anyone who got tickets? How did you get tickets?

I used to go around 99/00 when I was in the sixth form! I don't know how my friend got tickets. Can't remember if you applied or turned up early and the first however many got in.

I went to TOTP with my friend because my dad knew someone who worked in the production team. My friend and I were only about 13, I think? It was great fun-we saw Pulp and Simply Red on the night we were there.

Oh so jealous! I always thought it was something Londoners did (I was just outside the M25).

They have been replaying TOTP on BBC4 in the early hours. We record it. We have worked through from the mid eighties to 1993 I think. Brings back memories.

We've watched some of these. We get sucked in....didn't see this week's though.

(I get a bit upset with the where is Jason- he's had enough of being famous so should be left alone...his choice.)

We were outside the M25 too but by that time it was filming in Elstree (I don't know if it used to film in White City? I'm sure it was in Elstree from at least the mid90s as I remember some girls bunking off school to try to meet Take That 😂 which must've been around 95.

I flicked this over by accident on Saturday. It was enthralling. Every song was a banger. I was only a baby back then so no memories of what it was like at the time but so much variety and quality in the charts compared to the last 10 years or so
