TVAM Xmas Tape 1983

Merry Christmas VT!
Welcome to the opening feature of our Christmas double bill.
In it you will see what Chris Tarrant, Dudley Moore, Roland Rat, Anne Diamond and a whole host of other stars lighten the mood in what was a turbulent time for the company.
Contains strong language. Well, it wouldn't be as much fun without it.

Really summarises the situation that TV a.m. at that time trying to get the audiences in and they were working really hard on that the lack of investment in news that’s the satire here

I’m guessing whoever made the Christmas tape was sacked few days later? Management probably wasn’t too happy…….

Memories of great times. I'd wanted to hear that By the Seaside song again all these years. Does anyone know the artist or writers?

Try doing a search for it using Shazam and see what comes up.
