Summer's here, and so are we! This episode sees us roll back the clock to 1977, the year Elvis ate his last hamburger.
Jeremy adorns Union Jack shorts and waves a patriotic flag as he remembers the street parties and other celebrations for Her Maj the Queen's Silver Jubilee, and muses on the transition from anarchic punk to flamboyant disco.
Our UK number 1 is 'Seven Tears' by The Goombay Dance Band, which rather bafflingly topped the hit parade for three weeks in the spring of 1982.
Vince munches on eye-watering overpriced popcorn and sings tunelessly along to the ba ba ba ba ba ba ba paba ba Pearl and Dean advert as he reminisces about going to the cinema as a boy, enjoying Roger Moore vs Jaws, Godzilla vs Giant Flying Monsters, and Captain Kirk vs A Whole Lot of Nothing Much Happening Very Slowly.
