A new look, a new feature, but mainly the same old nonsense from Steve and Julian as they dissect the UK singles chart of 18 March 1988. There’s a load of hits you never hear anymore, three tracks from a hit album of the week and the top five singles in full, plus a look at the day’s news, TV listings and gigs.
