Off The Chart: 4 March 1980

We’re going back further than ever before this week on Off The Chart as we haul ourselves all the way back to 1980 and find ourselves in the middle of a Mod revival. In an unpredictable show Steve and Julian look at what was in the UK Singles Chart on 4 March 1980, regale you with three tracks from an unexpected featured album, and play the top five singles in full. Which horror film had a theme song by Cliff Richard? Which legendary pop star’s wife is having her own hit this week? And why has Noel Edmonds caused an outbreak of poetry? Click PLAY to find out!
