Pete Burns and Toyah!!!!! Love this and gotta love his Vivienne Westwood suit with the black eyes

[@bunjijumper5345]

Pete has the most beautiful eyes, never realized how beautiful he was before he went to the extreme with too much plastic surgery. Simply gorgeous.

[@AmosAmerica]

I think he is wearing black contacts here.

[@MeathookCinema]

I’m only here for Pete Burns

[@leesaunders8193]

Cannonball was only ever a No. 40 hit and yet here it is on a pop quiz a year later. We love to see it.

[@gogosegaga]

Everyone looks so innocent in the 90s haha

[@JasmineSurrealVideos]

There can never be enough Pete, I wish he'd been every contestant in different wigs and outfits! Miles Hunt ridiculing Morrissey slightly rankled me, as he's an exemplary lyricist, (and was a friend of Petes), I mean this from someone who sang about problems " the size of a cow", he's one to talk.

[@DeepScreenAnalysis]

Morrissey deserves to be ridiculed.

Nice to see this, pity how much content is "censored" - I mean many of these songs are widely available on You Tube, why not here??

KZbin has a very strict and archaic copyright system when it comes to copyrighted music.

Have you got the one with Tony Hadley and Sarah Cracknell in that low-cut dress ?

Was this before Pete had his lips done??

[@EzraTheBlueKnight]

He had already had work done to his lips here, but the failed augmentation didn't happen until 2004.

[@ljc6535]

Have no memory of him hosting tho by this time was too past it ..80s was the better time.

which date was this in 1994?

@stefanandseywanofficialyt There's a huge clue in the video desrciption title...

[@fergussaint-john2535]

lol...those dudes ragging on Kylie and in 2023 she's the megastar and they're like where?

[@dirty_laundry]

i heard this was the final show of the season?

[@escaton74]

the last of seven shows in the 90s

[@jamesconraadtucker]

Still a good show, though I preferred the original Pop Quiz. Toya always cute. Too bad the ridiculous scensoring of music clips takes place....ok editing this. I know all about the reasoning for copyright protection. I have copy written works myself (feel free to check my channel). My only point here is that taking the clips and sound bytes away is simpky too bad. Enjoy the show, peeps!

[@IThinkYouLookLarvely]

I agree, I was very young in the Mike Read era, but remember it well. I needed the KZbin "nudge" to remember this version!

[@simonrichmond4935]

It was ridiculous having clips with the sound turned down.

[@RihannaBritney]

@@simonrichmond4935if the sound wasn’t turned down then you wouldn’t see this video. KZbin would’ve taken it down they’re incredibly strict on copyright

[@RihannaBritney]

The censoring is due to copyright claims. If they weren’t censored this video wouldn’t be able to be viewed. KZbin would’ve taken it down

[@RihannaBritney]

@@simonrichmond4935if KZbin weren’t so strict on pulling videos for copyright then these songs wouldn’t be censored. Look up any other Pop Quiz or similar, a lot of the music is cut due to copyright

[@eacleversley7868]

How old was Pete here?

[@hydra4678]

About 33

[@mickfizz1]

34 or almost 35

[@nervousheadache]

[@candykane4665]

Miles Hunt was thought of by other bands as an arrogant, pathetic idiot and non talent which he was. Morrissey had more imagination than Hunt could even dream of which is probably why nobody remembers his crap band but they do remember 'The Smiths'.

[@RihannaBritney]

Miles calling Manic Street Preachers ‘drivel’ when The Wonder Stuff were a One Hit Wonder. Wonder being the operative word!
