Sara chats to former Bucks Fizz members Cheryl Baker, Jay Aston and Mike Nolan about their experiences of pop stardom in the 80s - including their Eurovision win in 1981 and their triumphant comeback this year with new band The Fizz!
Bucks Fizz became one of the top-selling groups of the 1980s, selling over 15 million records worldwide, with three No.1 singles - "Making Your Mind Up" (1981), "The Land of Make Believe" (1981) and "My Camera Never Lies" (1982). They also had UK Top 10 hits with "Now Those Days Are Gone" (1982), "If You Can't Stand the Heat" (1982), "When We Were Young" (1983) and "New Beginning (Mamba Seyra)" (1986).
Following a falling out and a legal battle with Bobby G (who owns the rights to the Bucks Fizz name), the other three members Cheryl Baker, Mike Nolan and Jay Aston, have joined with another 80s singing survivor - Bobby McVay. The Fizz released their debut album "The F-Z of Pop" this September. The album, produced by pop supremo Mike Stock (of Stock, Aitkin and Waterman hit-factory fame) contains three reimagined Bucks Fizz tracks (The Camera Never Lies, Piece Of Action and The Land Of Make Believe 2017) as well as other new music, some co-written by the band. The group are also on tour this Autumn.
As well as watching Sara chat to pop's national treasures, you can also enjoy videos from Madness, Nena, Mel & Kim, King, and Billy Joel, to name a few! Press the red button on your TV remote to join in the fun from 10.30pm.
Plus the Megamix lands in 1981 - what was number this week back then?
