If it makes you feel any better, he also appeared on Christmas morning BBC 1 in the same year doing the children's ward hospital visits - hard to believe in hindsight.

Aye, crazy how they hid it, I always liked Rolf too, Saville tho, he was always a creep

[George 1978]

I thought I would mention that Pick of the Pops on Radio 2 did the chart for the week I was born on 31st August - I think that it was the first time that they had done 1978 for that particular week. Three Times a Lady by the Commodores was played as scheduled.

Listened to it in Wales when I had my birthday break.

Oh, that's fun! I just checked mine, and it turns out my number 1 was "Bohemian Rhapsody" by Queen! Now, that’s a classic! Can’t beat a bit of Freddie Mercury magic to kick off your life, right?

I love the idea of finding out what tune topped the charts on your birthday—it’s a great conversation starter! If you’re into music, or just curious about nostalgia like me, it’s worth diving into some of those classic hits from the past. Speaking of which, if you want to stream those tunes or discover more hits from back in the day, you might want to check out an IPTV UK service. You can access tons of live music channels, old performances, and even music documentaries to really get a blast from the past!

What was yours, by the way? Carl Douglas' "Kung Fu Fighting" is a funky one!
