Does anyone remember the name of the programme on channel 4
mid 80's i think
where popstars were interviewd by a computer and had multiple
choice questions on the screen and at the end got to play there video
or whatever they were punting
i thought i was part of the max headroom show but not sure
any one know
it's causing grief in the works canteen !!!
Max Headroom
Maybe
Spin off from a post-apocalypse film of the same name
Max Headroom would sound about right.
Or was it something with Muriel Grey and one of her more extreme hair accessories?
oh, I remember that - wasn't Max Headroom though I don't think.
I remember it- you blaggard - you've brain locked me - arrrghhh
The Chart Show (sheesh, how did I remember that?)
no, not the Chart Show - that was on ITV on Saturday lunchtime.
The Tube?
Yep, the chart show was sat lunch time ITV, mid-90s. Used to be during ht elunch break at my saturday job.
It did have a computer asking questions in it though...
Wasn't the the computer called HUD or something its really going to annoy me!!!! AGGHHHH
Star Chamber? or something with Star in it?
Star Test is the one I am thinking of - thanks!
🙂When it started, the show was unique in that it had no presenters computer-generated displays took their place. The "pop-up" information snippets were represented as "windows" in a mock-up graphical user interface called HUD. In 1987 this was replaced with the more familiar display which featured a "mouse-pointer" and "icons" generated on an Amiga computer. Although commonplace nowadays, such interfaces were relatively cutting-edge at the time. The look of the icons was updated on the move to ITV in January 1989, and again upon the show's relaunch on December 7, 1991. However, this update only lasted one show and the previous 1989 icons returned the following week and lasted until May 1996 when the show's look and production was completely overhauled and was replaced with an animated text banner at the bottom of the screen.
ah, thank you!
thank you so much
Bastards. I spend half an hour trawling through intertnets, then finally chance upon S[b]tar Test[/b], return to the thread all smug and excited only to find some bugger's already done it. 😡
However, every cloud and that; I'd completely forgotten about the little-known gem that was [b]Murun Buchstansangur![/b]
