Young Ones Neil on Countdown, 1985 p.4

Neil from the Young Ones (the 1980s British comedy show, played by Nigel Planer) hosting Countdown (Australia's main chart show during the 1970s and 1980s), on 15 december 1985.

Part 4: Nigel stays in character as Neil throughout the show, which leads to Molly asking him about his experience, in a way that suggests the format of the Young Ones to be like reality TV of this era. Odd.

The guest hosting gig looks to be part of his tour of Australia for the "Heavy Concept Album".

Oh yes, no, I knew that. By "odd" I meant that it is odd that we are in an era where that scenario described has come to be.
