It's Easter 1985 on this week's Off The Chart podcast, so as well as the usual look at the UK singles chart, the news headlines and the TV, radio and gig highlights, this week your hollow, chocolate-flavoured podcast also contains Julian's Brian Cox anecdote, Steve's non-racist Chinese accent and Julian's Ed Sheeran song.

Your hosts have gone to great lengths to ensure this week's Off The Chart podcast goes ahead as normal - about ten miles, in fact, but they're still here to guide you through the UK singles chart from forty years ago, dodging technical problems and rediscovering ancient forgotten concepts such as "sport" and "concerts" along the way.

No need to leave the house, the latest Off The Chart podcast is here! Steve and Julian examine the UK singles chart of 24 March 1984 and how it fits into the patchwork of history. Along the way they discuss songs you can't sing anymore, the famous pop star Ian Lightningseeds and pirates panic buying non-existent cigarettes. It'll make sense if you listen.

Steve and Julian look at the UK singles chart from 17 March 1989 and attempt to place it in the context of what else was happening that day without getting sidetracked by Professor Brian Cox's music career, the time the entire island of Tiree made a record, or Gloria Estefan's magnetic wheelchair.

Another trip and stumble down Memory Lane as Steve and Julian examine the UK singles chart and surrounding events of 10 March 1983, and end up discussing songs named after biscuits, the TV show that got no viewers at all, and why members of prog bands keep writing songs for Bucks Fizz.

Steve and Julian return to pick over the bones of the UK singles chart from 3 March 1987. Along the way they discuss deja vu, the worrying amount of old music in the chart, the reason Frankie Goes To Hollywood didn't give away a free condom with their last single, and deja vu.

The Off The Chart podcast lands in 1981! Join Steve and Julian as they examine the UK singles and albums charts from this day, and discuss how climate change could have been halted decades ago if everyone hadn't been watching the British Rock and Pop Awards.

This week Steve and Julian start out examining the singles chart of 18 February 1986 and end up creating a children's cartoon. Join us for the adventures of Ralph, Pooch, Chubby, Butch and Tiny.

It's the second edition of the Off The Chart podcast! This week Steve and Julian examine the UK singles chart of the 11th of February 1982, pausing along the way to look at the day's news headlines, TV & radio highlights and gigs, as well as looking over your shoulder at the LP chart and the Italian top 10 from the same week.

Steve and Julian take a slightly askew look at this day in 1988, including an examination of the UK singles chart, a look at the day's news, TV & radio highlights, the gigs you might have been to, and the first edition of "Official Charts Website Screw-up Of The Week".
