The Roxy - Episode 5 (July 7, 1987)
From the producers of Channel 4's "The Tube" comes what is supposed to be ITV's answer to "Top of the Pops". It's the hottest new (and most continually evolving) nightclub on the telly, The Roxy! Presented by David "Kid" Jensen and Kevin Sharkey, this series used a weekly chart distributed by Satellite Media Services, produced by Capital Radio and compiled by the Media Research Information Bureau (MRIB). You could hear "Kid" count them down every Sunday afternoon from 5pm, in competition with BBC Radio 1's own chart show.

Deborah Leng, Mandy Smith & Alexa Singer provide backing vocals for Bryan's performance of 'Kiss and Tell' on Tyne Tee's 'The Roxy' music show, 23 February 1988.

Get Fresh opening + advert for The Roxy - 80s Saturday and Sunday morning tv
Opening to the Sunday morning children's show Get Fresh, hosted by Gaz Top and Charlotte Hindle. Watch them introduce the Wuzzles!
I left the advert on for The Roxy (a pop show I don't remember) because you can't beat it for 80s-ness.

The Roxy - Episode 27 (December 8, 1987)
The Roxy is still closed to the public, but Kid and Kevin are still inside. Again, not sure whether this "industrial dispute" is limited to Newcastle, but I'm pretty sure it wasn't affecting the rival show on the Beeb.
Presented by David "Kid" Jensen and Kevin Sharkey, this series used a weekly chart distributed by Satellite Media Services, produced by Capital Radio and compiled by the Media Research Information Bureau (MRIB).

Notes:
* Anybody besides me find Kevin's introduction to Scarlet Fantastic unhearable? Same with the Young Ones segment. Somebody at Tyne Tees needed better audio mixing.
* Cor blimey, Tyne Tees! Here we go with an entry outside the Top 40. What do I know? I'm an American.
* Saturday rebroadcast, Style Council and Rick Astley get new entries in the next show.
* Hey, I found another reason why The Roxy didn't do so well. Everyone was watching on Saturday instead of Tuesday because that's when "Kid" handed out chart spoilers.

* At #43, Then Jericho with "The Motive". At #43, why should I care about this act? Is Tyne Tees picking up acts off the street?
* At #18, Sinitta and "Toy Boy".
* We have a music video for Prince and Sheena Easton's "U Got the Look", debuting at #33.
* At #30, Pseudo Echo and "Funkytown". Now, this is something I can get behind.
* Tyne Tees replays a performance of Def Leppard's "Animal", at #8 this week.
* Live at #4, New Order and "True Faith".
* Boogie Box High drops to #12. Boogie Box High is an English pop supergroup formed musical project headed by Andros Georgiou in the late 1980s that featured a range of collaborators, including Georgiou's second cousin George Michael, guitarist Nick Heyward (of Haircut One Hundred), keyboardist Mick Talbot (of The Style Council), guitarist–songwriter David Austin, bassist Deon Estus, and others. So yes, it was George Michael and "friends". The whole "mystery act" thing doesn't work very well, except for possibly Donny Osmond.
* Stock Aitken and Waterman become an act themselves, charting at #10.
* #1 second week running: "La Bamba", with a music video this time.
* The Roxy stage becomes a cinema screen once more.
* This is from a Saturday broadcast, but this time, Tyne Tees doesn't have "The Kid" talking over himself. God is good!
I find that if you take it seriously, you may end up frustrated. This show should be approached as a musical portrait of 1987-88, imperfect as it is. Still won't stop me from pointing out faults, though.

From the producers of Channel 4's "The Tube" comes what is supposed to be ITV's answer to "Top of the Pops". It's the hottest new (and most continually evolving) nightclub on the telly, The Roxy! Presented by David "Kid" Jensen and Kevin Sharkey, this series used a weekly chart distributed by Satellite Media Services, produced by Capital Radio and compiled by the Media Research Information Bureau (MRIB).

Considering the show never had a fixed network timeslot, it makes you wonder why they didn't just air the show Saturday nights after 3-2-1 or something.)
This week:
* No Alan Freeman this week, "The Kid" kicks us off
* New Entry this week by Bananarama, "I Heard a Rumour"
* "The Kid" clears up a rumor regarding "Mel" Appleby of Mel and Kim, thanks to sister Kim
* "F.L.M." comes in at #36 (first showing of the video anywhere in the world, only finished the morning of the broadcast)
* Highest chart entry is Black's "Sweetest Smile" at #15
* George's video for "I Want Your Sex" has only been banned in Great Britain
* Highest climber is Atlantic Starr at #12
* At #50, Hue & Cry with "Labour of Love"; brothers from Glasgow (Greg likes fast cars, Patrick likes the public library)
* An encore of "Wishing Well" (#4) by Terence Trent D'Arby
* David Bowie with a music video, "Time Will Crawl" (#29 on the network chart; the video is actually directed by Tim Pope, not Julian Temple as earlier reported)
* Brand new #1: Pet Shop Boys with "It's a Sin", taking us into the credits

* Wet Wet Wet at #43 with "Sweet Little Mystery".
* Errol Brown gives the #34 spot his "Personal Touch".
* At #14, Hue and Cry's "Labour of Love". A recycled performance. Smart but lazy. Did they get away with this on The Tube?
* "True Faith" by New Order debuts at #38 with a video.
* Samantha Fox --- excuse me, Sam Fox -- at #25, "I Surrender".
* Anita Dobson escapes EastEnders and visits The Roxy. I guess divorcing Dirty Den has its benefits, because she seems to have a blonde boy toy next to her.
* Madonna holds at #1 with "Who's That Girl?". Here's the music video again.
* "Animal" by Def Leppard debuts at #32. Their album Hysteria cost over one million pounds to produce. That's enough to cover three series of "The Roxy" and then some.
* The credits are scrolling from right to left horizontally this time. Same problem as last time, "The Kid" talks over himself.
I want to love this show, really I do. As an American, though, this show lacks a lot of polish. It's a diamond in the rough, and they don't come any rougher. It's like that girl who had a curl on her forehead. When "The Roxy" is good, it's very, very good. When it's bad, it's just horrid.

From the producers of Channel 4's "The Tube" comes what is supposed to be ITV's answer to "Top of the Pops". It's the hottest new nightclub on the telly, The Roxy! Initially presented by David "Kid" Jensen and Kevin Sharkey, this series used a weekly chart distributed by Satellite Media Services, produced by Capital Radio and compiled by the Media Research Information Bureau (MRIB). You could hear "Kid" count them down every Sunday afternoon from 5pm, in competition with BBC Radio 1's own chart show.
This week:
* The Kane Gang takes us to "Motortown" (#66)
* Broken English are "Comin' On Strong" at #16
* "The Kid" talks to Morten Harket
* a-ha debuts the music video to "The Living Daylights" (one of my favorites, #20)
* Liverpool-based band Black comes in at #37 with "[The] Sweetest Smile"
* The Cure comes in at #36 with "Catch"
* Pet Shop Boys move to #2 with "It's a Sin"...
* But "Star Trekkin'" holds at #1
* Shakin' Stevens with his 27th hit single and his group of shirtless male dancers with "A Little Boogie Woogie" (#34)
* Atlantic Starr moves up to #12 next week, and we'll see more of Black at #15.
* Apparently, the voice of The Roxy is Alan Freeman.

Opening to the Sunday morning children's show Get Fresh, hosted by Gaz Top and Charlotte Hindle. Watch them introduce the Wuzzles!
I left the advert on for The Roxy (a pop show I don't remember) because you can't beat it for 80s-ness.

The Roxy is still closed to the public, but Kid and Kevin are still inside. Again, not sure whether this "industrial dispute" is limited to Newcastle, but I'm pretty sure it wasn't affecting the rival show on the Beeb.
Presented by David "Kid" Jensen and Kevin Sharkey, this series used a weekly chart distributed by Satellite Media Services, produced by Capital Radio and compiled by the Media Research Information Bureau (MRIB).
