Off The Chart: 11 March 1985

It’s our 50th show! Join in the celebrations as we revisit this week in 1985, playing some lesser known hits from the UK singles chart, reviewing the day’s news and featuring three tracks from the album of the week. Who died today, nine months after a punch-up with Ronald Reagan? Which famously sweary comedian has made a children’s record? And who invented txt spk years before text messaging existed? Click PLAY to find out!
