"Don't leave me this way" - The Communards
Second week at number one, and a new studio performance, here Jimmy starts on the same stage as Richard and Sarah-Jane.
The big brass section get their moment in the spotlight, and there's a lovely lighting effect during the "aaaaaaah" - all the neon freezes on and the lights stop flashing.

Fresh from #ImACelebrity, Rev Richard Coles told #TheLastLeg that his brother Andy was a #spycops officer but hasn't told him anything about it & so he's learning about it in the public inquiry. But it sounds like Richard's not telling the full truth π§΅

In the runup to the election, Rockβs Backpages turns to the March 1996 edition of Q magazine to resurrect an oral history of Red Wedge, the political initiative set up by the likes of Billy Bragg, Paul Weller and Tom Robinson 30 years ago
We're always delighted to have the Rev Richard Coles return for a visit (even if he didn't bring the dogs with him!)
