Ruby Flipper - Heaven Must Be Missing An Angel

Ruby Flipper's second appearance on TOTP for 15 July 1976 is a sweetness explosion: they dance to Tavares' Heaven Must Be Missing An Angel in the cutest little angel costumes, with tiny tinsel-and-card wings, and pipe-cleaner halos. Feel your heart melt as they suffer wild attacks from the boys in devil outfits. Cheer them on as they repel those attacks.

With such a barrage of heavy duty cuteness, I find it difficult to work out who's the sweetest: Lulu I think, but Cherry's tearful mime is a pretty close contender, and Sue & Patti are not at all uncute themselves. Don't they bring out the chivalrous Knight Protector in you?

Ruby Flipper - Tubular Bells

Ruby Flipper in the Blue Peter Garden, dance to Tubular Bells by The Champ's Boys Orchestra. Top of the Pops 8 July 1976. Whats the biggest Faux pas a disc jockey could possibly make? I reckon mixing up the artist name with the song title sets off my useless showbiz zombie alert. Watch Tony Blandbairn's introduction and decide fr yourself.

Pan's People - Le Plus Difficile

Andere frühes clip tôt Les Personnes de la Casserole, tanzend zu de Jacques Dutronc französischen de chanteur au «Le Plus Difficile». Comme le clip tôt précédent j'ai signalé, ich denke bekannt de Beat-Club allemand d'exposition de Popfernsehshow.

Apologies for the Freuche (or Dençais perhaps?). I thought "Les Personnes de la Casserole" was pretty good. More 1968 pre-TOTP dancing, this time from Ruth, Babs and Louise. Quality isn't great, but I guess we're lucky to get anything at all. Seulement für die fanatiques, ich suppose.
