Young Ones Neil on Countdown, 1985 p.1 incl. Hole in my Shoe

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 1 includes him performing (miming) his hit single "Hole In My Shoe" (a cover of the Traffic song from the 1960s).

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

(During the 1980s) I find Nigel Planer/any of his characters, weirdly good looking.

He really says "arse" on this version, instead of miming the word while the soundtrack plays "clothes".

By the way, the opening segment does look like the British Countdown set.
