Off The Chart: 7 January 1988

Off The Chart: 7 January 1988

A new year, a new jingle, a new feature (because we’ve run out of films) but lots of old records as usual on Off The Chart as we go back to the first chart of 1988! Steve and Julian play some of the week’s less remembered hits, three tracks from the week’s featured album and the top five in full. How did Oliver Reed get stitched up by a vet? Why has Good Morning Britain relocated to Australia? And why is Rick Astley showing off his B-side? Click PLAY to find out!
