So Top Of The Pops is finishing on the 30th of June after setting standards in the early stages for dance fashion and interesting music, (I think).
They say that music T.V has dropped them down from 16 million viewrers to only 2 million, so that there is now no scope for the program.
It will be missed as it was the only real form of pop music on terestral television in the UK.
It has been fun, sometimes tacky, but a major part of UK Pop history.But I guess that its time to move on down.
( end tital, roll music, CCS way down inside and cut) By T.O.T.P. has this not happend before when it was saved at the last minute.
