We've already seen a low-quality version of this Legs & Co. routine, dancing to Rush's Spirit of Radio: but Suefan has sent me this much better version. It's much easier to see that the TOTP boffins were running wild with their super hi-tech video tools: freeze-frame effects, groovy psychedelic solarisation, chroma key and picture-in-picture.
Thanks to Suefan for this much-improved clip.

A pleasing rather avant-garde little dance this one and Sue is doing much of the leg work while the others make faces, drink tea and drive around the place.
I like this too and the great track by Rush helps. The freeze frames were common on TOTP from 1980 to 1982 especially early 1981 although they look dated now.
Although not much of a fan of screen tricky Sue's silhouette is most pleasing. As I think I mentioned some light years ago, enough inspiration to embark upon a thousand starships to please such a fair maid.
A well made and very substantial dance routine by the lovely Legs and Co. Love the different sequences to the clip. Which cleverly connects to the songs lyrics. A great song but difficult to dance too, Legs and Co make it look so simple though with their sheer expertise. Sue Menhenick is very much the star of the show in this dance. Benja :-)
Excellent as the dancers are lets not overlook Flick's creative vision as well.
