Name That Show

There was a programme in Britain in the 80s, I think on Saturday evenings, bout 6ish, that had Kiki Dee's 'Star' as a theme-tune (you know the one: Star/ That's what they call you/ How long you've waited to get where you are./ Star/ That's what you wanted/ This week hot shot, a video star).
What the fuck was it??? It feels like I'll never properly relax until I know it.

Perhaps this thread could be used for similar pleas for the torture to end.

if memory serves me correctly, which it doesn't often are you not talking about one of those god awful talent shows. Vague threads of memory stretching to the Beeb's 80's version of Opportunity Knocks.

And never mind helping with our own torture thanks to you now Smoothly I now have that bloody song playing in my head, cheers.

Hmmm. I hadn't considered that this is likely to spread more torture than it cures. Sorry mate.
I've got a talent show in mind too Adam, but I'm not sure that that's not a false association based on the words of the song.

I can almost see the titles.....primary colours....an ITV feel about it....the Jim'll Fix It slot.....Aaaggggghhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!

Bizunth says 'Bob says Opportunity Knocks'.
Look under O here for evidence.

Bizunth! That's the one.
That feels like 10 tonnes of dog shit being lifted from my shoulders.
You're a star-ah-ahh-ah...
