did you know that during the height of their fame in the 1980s the band Duran Duran had it written into their "rider" for gigs/tv appearances etc that there should be in their dressing room bowls of orange smarties only

Other bands asked for drugs, girls,Elton John like requests for certain drinks etc

Duran Duran ask for Orange smarties

One saturday morning as a young lad I was in the audience for BBC1's saturday morning kids show, and thousands of kids had sent in tubes of orange smarties only

It was there that I got my first crush on the TV presenter Sarah greene, a lingering thought of which persists to this day

[Junior Senior]

Sarah Greene - hmmmmmmmmmmm! - hubba hubba

I thought I was the only one to have my first stirrings to the lovely Sarah.

[Heid]

I never had any stirrings at Sarah Greene - I didn't knwo about orange smarties either - AND I just had a smarties brownie as part of my super healthy lunch

[TightEnd]

No, she followed Maggie Philbin

That undoubtedly contributed to teenage angst about Sarah, lovely Sarah , because the thought of anyone being able to sleep with Cheggers certainly put off my puberty by a good two years

Oh no - the (now legendary) Blue Peter episode about female underwear through the ages (with Sarah & Janet Ellis in basques & suspenders) will never be forgotten
