Kat plays the biggest 80s hits and Kool (& the gang) tells the story of Get Down On It

With Wham!, Toyah, Bronski Beat, the top 3 from 1989, a rock track from Queen, two tracks from 'the boss', and a one-hit-wonder from Stan Ridgway you won't have heard since ... the 80s! Plus The Eurythmics, Mari Wilson, Air Supply, Kim Wilde and two very different songs with the same title - "Hold Me Now" from Johnny Logan and The Thompson Twins.
