Wet Blanket, despite being featured in The Chills live set since 1982, had not been recorded in a studio at the time this was filmed, despite having obvious strong commercial potential. It was first recorded in December 1985 for a John Peel session in London, England (although this version was never intended to be released), and was finally recorded during the Brave Words album sessions of June - July 1987 at Point Studios in London, England, and appeared on the final album and also as a slightly remixed 7" single.

This concert was filmed by Bob Sutton on a Panasonic video camera, the same video camera that was used to film the Doublehappys "Needles and Plastic" video the following month. This was digitised from the original master tape in December 2010.

The Chills lineup at this point was Martin Phillipps (guitars/vocals), Terry Moore (bass/vocals), Peter Allison (keyboards/vocals), Alan Haig (drums).
