Eighties pop star Marilyn pays a visit to Maidstone, and pops into No. 73 for a chat with Dawn Lodge. Pookiesnackenburger are in the cellar. The horizontal lines on screen during the band number, is a phenomenon called 'microphony', a video artefact common in older TV cameras. Today's cameras use CCD sensors to produce the image, but prior to CCDs, vacuum tubes performed this task. Loud noises in the studio, such as rock bands or gunshot sounds would cause the tubes to vibrate. This would produce a characteristic and undesirable horizontal banding in the image. CCDs are not susceptible to this problem.

Despite the fact Anne Bancroft had won the Tony Award for Best Performance by a Leading Actress in a Play for her performance in the Broadway production, United Artists executives wanted a bigger name cast as Anne Sullivan in the film adaptation. They offered to budget the film at $5 million if Elizabeth Taylor was cast but only $500000 if director Arthur Penn insisted on using Bancroft. Penn, who had directed the stage production, remained loyal to his star. The move paid off, and Bancroft won an Oscar for her role in the film. Also despite the fact that Patty Duke had played Helen Keller ...

Transformers? Overrated. Okay, not really, but that's what Tonka wanted you to think! This 1987 shmup is a fine example of the 80's TV show cash-in game. Leader-1 would be proud. And that is sarcasm.
