Big Country - Look Away snippet in 1987 UK Drama "The Life and Loves of a She-Devil"

From the 1987 UK tele drama "The Life and Loves of a She-Devil"
Particularly interesting is the fact the children really are holding (and likely playing) an actual copy of the Look Away single and are seemingly reading the credits on the back of the sleeve as they're dancing, giving us a "Yay! Big Country!" followed by "Robin Millar! Yay!" and rounding of with "Stuart!"
After being witness to the cheering on of Robin Millar, the man in the chair gets up in disgust and leaves. This is clearly Dave Bates who's had enough of Robin's crisp, clear production of the 7" single, heading off to pour himself another glass of 'Turbitt's Reverb.'
One for the archives.
Stay Alive!

Such a small thing but that made my day haha. It's like that feeling I get grocery shopping on a Sunday morning when a Big country song comes on in the store.:)

It’s always a treat when that happens! 😀

While we are on the subject of snippets, I'd just like to mention that the opening chords of "Tall ships go" were used in the 1980's. The music was accompanying a high speed downhill skier and I think the program showing this was Tomorrow's World. If not that then either World of Sport or Grandstand. Also Blue Peter used "In a Big Country", but I can't remember when this was. Hope you have some luck in finding these 👍

Oh that’s very cool! I have an insider from Grandstand and he's never mentioned that one. I wonder. (If you see some of my Grandstand clips featuring BC in the channel they are courtesy of him) I do like a hunting challenge, I’d love to find that skiing one especially! Thanks for the tip!

@@BC1000Stars No problem mate. It's things like these that you never forget. Pretty sure it's Tomorrow's World then 👍

At least the kids liked it!

Thank you for finding this. I remembered there was a BC reference in this from when it was first on, (showing my age) and tried to find it myself a while ago but didn't really know where it was and it was a needle in a haystack. I obviously didn't look hard enough. Yay, Big Country!
