Broadcast date: 11 February 1983, UK.
BBC1 - Breakfast Time.
Hosted by Michael Smith.
Breakfast Time was British television's first national breakfast television programme, broadcast from 17 January 1983 until 29 September 1989 on BBC1 across the United Kingdom. It was broadcast for the first time just over two weeks before TV-am, the commercial breakfast television station, started its service with the programme Good Morning Britain. It mixed hard news with accessible features, creating a cosy feel, with sofas and bright colours. Regular length 120-150 min, starting at 06:30. The presenters typically wore casual clothes instead of formal suits, in contrast to the regular news broadcasts. Pop music review hosted by Mike Smith. On 2 October 1989 the show became Breakfast News.

Both nick and limhal’s hairstyles 😍 im sorry but I would wear both of those hairstyles in a heartbeat lol

[@ianmangham4570]

You're a girl right

[@luz9979]

They are so lovely and modest. And so lovely English.....

[@christinacampbell5952]

I like them, too

[@tatzybatzy1286]

This is what I love about the eighties everyone was unique and original! The punks, the mods, the goths the new romantics, you name it! Now I see the self professed influencers on instagram and everyone looks exactly the friggin same!

[@emmetdonnelly2072]

You are so correct. We are so boring now. The 80s were electric, colourful, exciting and magical. In the 80s the 2000s were seen as the exciting future but we are more backward than ever now in present day.

[@SpookyElectric319]

Agreed. Many have become carbon copies, heavily negatively influenced by social media.

[@Dubliner812]

Ravers and the Later 80s had Indie, Madchester and the Ravers. Long live the 80s.

[@stairsandflowers]

It’s the TikTok effect. It’s popular to dress in all black and white amongst people my age and everyone wants to be like the biggest creators on there. There are other true eighties goths but they aren’t as popular unfortunately

[@JulieRushworth]

My favourite 80s band, was in love with Chris, recently saw Nick Beggs with Howard Jones which was amazing

[@GarryMiller-vc7my]

Where were Nick Beggs and Howard Jones playing. ?

[@JanetteStiberova]

Limahl❤❤❤🥰🥰🥰

[@seegucker0147]

Funny! Looking at it today, Limahl and Nick look kind of normal for someone working in the pop music "industry". But when you look at the two BBC guys and hear their questions about hairstyles and their looks, you realise that Kajagoogoo were just ahead of their time.

[@magnoliasilva6744]

Limahl ❤❤❤

[@angeladominiklimahl4051]

Limahl Love it ❤️☺️😘🇭🇺

[@dallasj244]

Nick Beggs and Andrew Ridgely had such beautiful skin. I eventually sided with crushing on Andrew since they became massive LOL, but what beautful smile Nick has, and he's soft spoken like Andrew is. And Limahl, he will always be known for inspiring millions to have his hair, and his 2 big hits will be played forever!

[@Matt73_]

you are so real for this. Nick and Andrew are beauties

[@michaelb.42112]

"We have been together for 17 months". Imagine a startup business going from zero to hero in 17 months. That is incredibly fast. Most companies take 30 years to reach those limits.

[@eightiesmusic1984]

Wrong.

[@vicmigue]

Limahl ❤

[@RetroReminiscing]

Superb thank you !👌

[@StratsRUs]

Great music.

[@ivuska63]

Thank you.

[@cresshead]

My girlfriend and I saw them in Leicester and H2O were supporting them must have been 1983 tour.

[@eightiesmusic1984]

What were H20 like? I really like Dream To Sleep and Blue Diamond ( not a hit but garnered a lot of radio play in 1987).

[@cresshead]

they were a good live band, their single dream to sleep is excellent.@@eightiesmusic1984

[@eightiesmusic1984]

I cannot believe how the camera could not pan smoothly across the studio to the other person. Very poor.

[@arissalevitt5948]

Yeah, sad 😂

[@tylerbish8938]

Lol funny name for a band

What a tremendous song it is. If I were a rapper I'd love to sample that bassline.

[@user-fk7lg7fg7q]

Hola. Jola

[@kennethpace9887]

What if you're a one hit wonder? 😂

[@suzannezoubeck5216]

Kewl!❤☮🌎

[@delorispoindexter5663]

I was 23 in 1983 I wanted to get my hair done like lamal

[@bIuebitten4675]

Don't lie, if you were 23 in 83, you could at least get your grammar correct.....

[@j0s3phXO]

​​@@bIuebitten4675I think he can be forgiven misspelling limahl since it's not a real name

[@bIuebitten4675]

@@j0s3phXO Not to mention that it's literally spelt out in the title...🙄

[@nicholasbradley-zq4fw]

How rehearsed & wooden is this interview.

[@TheAlien1974]

I thought nick was a woman

[@ebbhead20]

Nick Beggs was so goodlooking you thought you couldn't improve on his looks. But then you saw the US video to Turn.. and later the Shouldn't Do That video from Kaja. Thats the Kaja i miss, the very skilled and insanely well dressed gods they became for a while. And those mixes. Damn they where good. Real grown up funk mixed with Nicks insane voice. Never got the intrest in Limahl. He seems to be focused on what 10 year old girls liked. Nick was a real musician that made grown up records. And deep lyrics too. The closest Limahl got to that was The Waiting Game. But he tended to stick to nonsense stuff.. Nothing deep there.. 😕
