Hit Factory Xmas Party Vids!
A sled load of 1980s Christmas and Stock Aitken & Waterman hits to get you in the yuletide party mood, with Sara Cox joined by hit-maker Pete Waterman and singer Sonia.
Watch a sled load of 1980s Christmas and Stock Aitken & Waterman videos to get you in the yuletime party mood, with Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Radio 2's Sara Cox who is joined by the hit-maker Pete Waterman and singer Sonia.
There's a heavenly host of 80s friends, with Hit Factory videos from Donna Summer, Kylie and Jason, and Rick Astley, as well as some Christmas party tunes to watch including Modern Romance and The Human League.
Pete Waterman and Sonia chat with Sara by the Christmas trees about how they started out in Liverpool, and reminisce about heading out on the road in the late 1980s with their Hit Factory buddies. Find out the truth about how the hit duet Especially For You by Kylie Minogue and Jason came about, and dig deep into the making of the Stock Aitken and Waterman version of Do They Know Its Christmas with the Band Aid II.
Ken Bruce and Jeremy Vine pop in to exchange some classic 1980s presents with Sara and pick their favourite Christmas songs from the decade.
Plus catch the Top 5 Megamix, featuring a specially chosen set of video clips from some equally brilliant and awful Christmas novelty performances from the 80s, including Paul McCartney with The Frog Chorus and We All Stand Together.
