- SUPER RARE !!!
Here's 9 minutes of highlights (music videos edited out) from THE SHOW with Bananarama (our Jacquie was still fairly new at this point) and a delightfully well-mannered Leigh Bowery!
Worth a peek!

Enjoy!

Leigh was at a club and did his thing next to one of the Rolling Stones who said: "Fuck off freak!" Leigh instantly shot back: "Fuck off fossil!"
Siobhan Fahey (who left the Nanas to form Shakespear's Sister in 1988) was born in Ireland to Irish parents but moved to England by age two. Her mate Jacquie O'Sullivan [in the video)] took Siobhan's place for a few years before Keren & Sara carried on as a duo (1992).
Bananarama: And for our next video, the Pet Shop Boys with "WHAT HAVE I DONE TO DESERVE THIS?"
Leigh: That's what I was about to ask you.
The man was way ahead of his time. For 2011, we still have not caught up to him...yet...
Jacquie wasn't allowed to speak! She was allowed to sing most of the vocals though ...
This is truly charming. They seem to dig each other.
"I'd love to be on a macrobiotic diet all the time, but when you've only got roadside cafes..." HAHA! This is brilliant. Surreal and subtely camp!
I just found this Bowery's work today, and its very awesome. Very creative personality indeed, he'll be missed much.
This is fantastic! My sisters were really into Banarama when I was growing up and I can remember them watching this show in the late 80s. Great stuff.
thanks for putting this online. its a real treat.
FABULOUS -- thank you for posting this video of Leigh!
By the power of Banarama's charisma!
Oh, there isn't any!
The girls are no great shakes as presenters, but Leigh was brill, he is sorely missed.
i saw this guy in a club once on regent street bout 13 years ago. he was a freak then too lol.
loved it.
@hattersuffa i can only assume you are not british, as you dont "get" the humour. Bananarama were friends of leigh bowery
if there only had been a 'Leigh Bowery Show' on MTV back then.
It's Leigh's voice too. He was a complete one off. There should be paintings of him hanging in the best galleries!
Are there already?
Jax had a bit of fun and moved on. She is doing just fine these days and is very happy.
That actually is pretty cool...and a nice use of the 'Bowery Barb' that we know is lurking behind that deceptively sweet demeanour he adopted whilst in conversation with Bananarama...
He cracks me up!!
he is a genious!!!!god bless
I agree with Bunny. Sarah and Jacquie's body language says they adore him. Its just the format of the show which is super lite. He doesnt belong on this piece of mere merchandising yet here he is anyway. That speaks volumes about either the show's producers or Bananarama, and Leigh. I would love to know who's programming decision it was to have him on.
fantastic bunny ,keep up the good work.
bananarama me encanta bowery heras marabilloso
How are they treating him? It's just a silly show ...
Leigh is just charming most visual artists for some reason or another take the bitchy queen route , and this is proof that bitchy is not better
hahahaha Absolutely!!! she seems really fed up (and I think that it is especially with Keren).
Oh, I'm a BIG Bananarama fan tho, luv Keren...
well that was just Gorgeous... err... ehm, what's next?
@hattersuffa It was a video show AND chat show ... and the hosts were pop stars & celebs each week. The awkwardness was part of the fun. I think you're over-analysing it a bit. Bananarama were the huge stars then -- not Leigh Bowery (who was virtually unknown until well after his death).
Such an intelligent man...
Right ... I don't disagree with any of that. They needed a third member to make it into the record books (as a group instead of a duo) -- Jacquie was chosen by Karen & Sara but Siobhan as well. Indeed, Siobhan & Jacquie are still friends to this day and have an intertwining circle of friends in Soho and in the industry.
Well, I said I don't disagree ... I do disagree with the assertion that I need to do some Nana research. I am up for a Nana Trivia throwdown any time, Sir!
Jacquie seems really fun.. shame she left in 92. Keren seems like a right moody cow.
Yeah -- she got it all from Jacquie ..
Who's Ken?
wow this was back when MTV was still hip and cool, too bad emptyTV sucks these days.
@juancamex They are much more vivid & open nowadays, as they approach 50! :-)
Kirk says "Girls I love you but honestly what where you thinking of? I concur Leigh Bowery was the most professional of the whole affair. Who'd have thought?"
EXACTLY.
@juancamex Guess that's why they're not talk show hosts! :-)
so much like Barry Humphries (both from Melbourne)
Sadly there are few who still know about Leigh Bowery, his legacy is fading... On the other hand, thank heavens that bananarama's has already.. What a dull bunch of women... Leigh held this together, their questions were droll...
that's cool
@bunnytube LOL I guess you're right. I like them though.
KIDDING! :-)
Who's the raging queen in sparkling PJ's? Never heard of him/her/it/????
@vidman04 See Leigh Bowery dot net.
Leigh bowery holding it together..bananarana dull wooden yawn
in the beautiful days before Lady Gaga's contrived half-witted outfits...
poor jacquie never seemed to fit in
This is boring, these girls are very boring. I like em singing.
They were so wooden..!
@bunnytube: Is this for real? I've never seen such. To each their own I guess.... Sorry, I didn't mean to offend anyone, it's just.....just..... so ridiculous....
no1 cares lol Richard Ian Tracy
I love the fact that they fell so flart on their arses as interviewers, Leigh had to take over
