After 3 amazing years, it’s time for me to bring this chapter to a close.
It’s been an absolute blast! I’ve had so much fun chatting about the BEST DECADE EVER, sharing memories, talking music, films and TV, and meeting some fantastic guests along the way.
A massive THANK YOU to everyone who has listened, watched, supported me, joined me on the podcast or simply shared the love of the 80s.
Three years of memories I’ll never forget.
It’s not goodbye to the 80s, though… THE 80s WILL LIVE ON! 💗💛

🎙️ Revisit & React – An Audience with Joan Rivers (1984) | Part 2
Welcome to Part 2 of my Revisit & React series, where we continue looking back at the classic 1984 television special An Audience with Joan Rivers.
Joan Rivers was one of the quickest, sharpest, and most fearless comedians of the 1980s. In this second part, I react to even more of her unforgettable one-liners, audience interaction, and the no-holds-barred comedy that made her a true comedy icon.
We'll chat about:
⭐ Joan's razor-sharp wit and impeccable timing.
⭐ The celebrity audience and their reactions.
⭐ The jokes that still land today—and those that are very much of their time.
⭐ Why Joan Rivers was such a groundbreaking performer and remains one of the most influential comedians ever.
Originally broadcast on 17 March 1984 as part of the long-running An Audience With... series, the show perfectly captures Joan at the height of her powers.
If you love classic comedy and everything 80s, this is one you won't want to miss!

🎙️ Revisit & React – An Audience with Joan Rivers (1984)
Welcome back to Revisit & React – the show where we dust off the biggest moments from the 80s and see if they're still as brilliant today!
Today we're travelling back to 1984 to revisit An Audience with Joan Rivers.
If you weren't around in the 80s, An Audience with... was one of ITV's most popular entertainment shows. A huge audience of celebrities and fans would gather to watch some of the biggest names in music, comedy and television perform before answering questions from the audience.
In 1984, one of the biggest names in comedy took centre stage – the fearless, fast-talking and razor-sharp Joan Rivers.
Joan Rivers was already a huge star in America thanks to her stand-up comedy and appearances on television with Johnny Carson. Her style was unlike anything many British viewers had seen. She was loud, quick-witted, fearless and didn't hold back.
From the moment she walked onto the stage, she had the audience laughing. Her comedy covered everything from marriage and relationships to celebrities, fashion, ageing and everyday life. Nobody was off limits—including herself! One of Joan's greatest strengths was her willingness to make herself the butt of the joke before anyone else could.
Watching it today, it's amazing how fast her delivery was. There was barely a pause between punchlines. She fired jokes out one after another, and her timing was absolutely incredible.
Of course, comedy has changed over the years. Some of Joan Rivers' material reflects the attitudes of the 1980s, and a few jokes may feel dated or more provocative to modern audiences. But that's also part of revisiting classic television—seeing how entertainment has evolved while appreciating the performers who helped shape it.
The audience Q&A section is a real highlight. Joan's off-the-cuff answers are just as funny as her prepared material, showing why she was regarded as one of the quickest minds in comedy.
What also stands out is her confidence. At a time when stand-up comedy was dominated by men, Joan Rivers carved out her own place and became one of the most successful female comedians in the world. She inspired generations of comics who followed.
For me, yes. While a few jokes belong firmly in the 80s, Joan's energy, confidence, storytelling and razor-sharp wit are timeless. You can see why she became such a legendary performer.
