If you're young you won't remember The Hitman and Her (and if you ever went out on a Saturday night, you won't have seen it), Michaela Strachan and Pete Waterman filming late night shows from actual clubs. The show ran from 1988 to 1992, which is amazing really when you consider it just featured groups of pissed people dancing badly in clubs. Take That appeared on one show, also Kylie and Guru 'Bloody' Josh. Until 1992 they usually filmed in cheesy clubs in Bradford or Blackpool, where the people got hammered on Bacardi and Coke and danced around their bags. Clubs and clubbing were changing around them though. Rave was really taking off in the clubs, as were pills (twenty five quid a pop, but they'd last for hours), suddenly this whole Pete and Michaela in da club stuff didn't seem such a good idea. Suddenly it looked naive, aswell as naff.
I really wish they'd revisit this idea now. On ITV. After Extreme Cops With Guns and Dogs on The Streets At War
