More Mike Oldfield on Blue Peter (1979 & 1980)
Blue Peter mentioned Mike Oldfield twice more after the film of him re-recording their theme.
On the 1st March 1979 they announced his rearrangement of their closing music, and on 14th January 1980 they explained about the new ending to the single (which at that point was at number 19 in the charts) and then Legs & Co danced a routine for it.
Unfortunately, the re-recorded ending didn't give the single any further boost. The following week it had dropped to 24, then 32, and the week after that it was out of the top 40.
Recorded off-air to U-matic, later dubbed to S-VHS and finally digital.
