This takes me back ... a LONG way.

A good friend (and fellow writer) is a keen Style Council fan and he found the split-second-blink-and-you'll-miss-me moment when I filled the screen on The Tube in November 1983. 28 years ago. I was totally starstruck, not by the band, but by meeting Jools Holland, Paula Yates and Paul Young back-stage. Little did I know that the Dawn French and Jennifer Saunders who were pretending to be fans would become so famous.
