Great show @mwrdarren.bsky.social , and a cool head under pressure 🙂 #deeper80s

Away this week in the bit of England closest to France. FM radio is providing a service From The North.

Divine's vocal stylings aren't to Samantha's taste! #deeper80s

13 shows today at Faversham Fringe, of which "42" is 1. favershamfringe.co.uk/whats-on

Welcome back @richardpulsford.bsky.social to Faversham Fringe, for your ??th visit! favershamfringe.co.uk/whats-on

These are 2 of the 33 (count 'em!) shows on weekend 3 of Faversham Fringe, this Fri Sat Sun. Something for everyone.

Just catching up #deeper80s 300th. @mwrdarren.bsky.social gets Kate Bush and Kate Kestrel mixed up. We've all done it Darren 😁

Weekend 2 of the Faversham Fringe is approaching... favershamfringe.co.uk Pleased to announce I have at last found my Fringe badges (paging @iantuckerbell.bsky.social and @orangeworks.bsky.social , I still gottem!)

Richard, welcome back to Faversham Fringe! Which starts today of course. favershamfringe.co.uk

It's October so it must be Faversham Fringe month! Here's a highlight on the 10th.

The Winning Streak track was actually released by theme music genius Alan Hawkshaw, under the name of Miami Vice. #deeper80s

Faversham Fringe is 3rd to 26th October. The best month of the year in the town. Any more Fav Fringe acts on here?

Every Darren edition needs a Miharu Koshi track! #deeper80s

Walked past this today. Now I like Sad Cafe, but they'd be surprised to find themselves mentioned in such exalted company.

Proud and happy to be part of the successful counter-protests against the far right in Faversham today. Disbelief at the number of radicalised family units on their side: the parents raging with anger and grievance, and the children trained in vile chants and slogans.

Fully expecting Samsunspor (a) as a joke for older #cpfc supporters.

RIP Gerry Harrison. Childhood visits to relatives in Mildenhall were made bearable by watching him anchor Anglia's football coverage, although sometimes he did a freelance turn on Thames Sport.

Heard "Bang Zoom" recently and was amazed by how far it stands out from everything else in '86. RIP Howie Tee.

Blimey. 50 years ago today, my first #cpfc match. The Kent County Challenge Cup (yes really) v Charlton. The only goal scored by Derek Hales, watched by 7000 sitting on the terraces wilting in the heat.

Evening to the #gimwr gang. Rob there will be a couple of new requests via DM shortly

Thanks as always Rob, I shall have my usual Wednesday morning #gimwr catchup (for the second hour) tomorrow.

I'm very much here for the John Foxx banter 😀 #deeper80s

Pirate stations would regularly play Casiopea tracks back in the day, probably because they had forked out £50 for a Japanese import #deeper80s

Departing now but will catchup the second hour of #gimwr tomorrow, thanks Rob

I didn't know The Wasps' place in MWR history. Jesse is still performing I think. #gimwr

Sandy Gall (RIP) only indirectly involved in this extract from the Jeff Bernard bio, but it still makes me laugh.

The first edition of #deeper80s that I heard was on 17/06/20 - #maidstone - so as I approach my fifth anniversary, many thanks to Darren and Samantha for what is still one of the best shows around.

Thanks Darren. Two of my favourite Squeeze singles (both from 1984) aren't really Squeeze singles at all! #deeper80s

Thanks Rob. One of Halifax's finest. Not that Halifax though. #gimwr

Thanks Rob. New favourite band, but not so new! #gimwr

Babes in the Woodentops

Talked to big bruv last night, his first #cpfc match was in 1964, he says the biggest thing Palace won before yesterday was Quiz Ball. And having checked, even that's wrong (we were runners-up).

Catching up Big Match Revisited. Insurance merger mania of 84/85 results in harassed-looking signwriting on a spare hoarding at Maine Road.

Very close to the first #eurovision riot there

Two minutes to save #eurovision

And here come the votes of all those people who haven't even watched the show. #eurovision

Sophie Ellis-Bextor missed her soapbox opportunity to complain about the OCC still failing to refer correctly to "theaudience" #eurovision

Still waiting for someone to dedicate this first major trophy for #cpfc to the 3744 of us who stood in the pissing rain on 1st February 1986 to see that 1-1 draw v Carlisle. #GrumpyOldSod

The FA Cup Final (men's) is on both BBC and ITV. That's very 70s / 80s. First time for a long time surely?

Some great singles and a Top Ten album - but never quite hit the big time sadly #deeper80s

Hugely talented but Jankel's solo career would have benefitted from guest vocalists. #deeper80s

Goodbye to SEN provision, libraries, trading standards, cooperation for EES.

More evidence today that, for most of the news media, provincial England = the UK.

Thanks Rob. Discovered this recently. Sounds very familiar, similar to Bob Mould's Sugar I think. #gimwr

As the final frame commenced, BBC 1 attempted to entice 18.5 million viewers back, with Mrs Oily Hollingsworth herself.

Thanks Samantha! More #DeeperX requests to follow 🙂

As a #cpfc fan I'm delighted but Lineker banging on about "164 years of history" is doing my head in. If you can say we were formed in 1861, on that basis I will advertise my house as an early Victorian mansion.

Thanks Samantha. Discovered this recently. Early Anne Dudley production. #Deeper80s

According to HMHB, Yate is the sort of town referees come from. On the Big Match Revisited now, Ray Lewis stakes his claim.

Good cover this. I wonder how the vinyl sales chart is compiled for Record Store Day. There must be dozens of releases all tied on 1000 sales #gimwr
