This was a new programme, with Annie looking back on her life and attitude to music.  She only talked about Bowie, T-Rex and King Crimson by name for the early seventies before her punk section, but Mike makes it into a photo montage at the end of the programme - at 57.27 on the iPlayer.  It's him and Annie together in a home studio, maybe around TBII time.  I think he's wearing an LA Raiders T-shirt.

I remember that Mike had tons of interviews with her around the 90s for his autobiography...not what has become Changeling.

Ah, the perils of posting in haste.  Some other essential details.  It was shown on Friday, 3rd June as part of a themed evening on BBC4.  Two of Annie's Old Grey Whistle Tests were also shown - an Ian Dury concert, and an excellent edition of her following the The Police around from Japan to Greece.  All programmes were shown twice, with a repeat inbetween of the Prog Britannia show that featured Mike in interview.  As her show made her feelings about most prog quite clear, it was a more incongruous choice of scheduling!  I thought I saw the photo first time round then mistimed changing channels later on, so no recording. :/

Thanks, Tati.  My expertise ended there - others may recognise particular details such as hair length, or which house it is.


And parabéns, that woman! :)  :)  :)

It's on its way again; BBC4 this Friday, the 23rd of September, unless any EPG you may use considers the broadcast time of 00.05 to be Saturday!  This time it's part of an Old Grey Whistle Test themed line-up, but I think the photo of Mike is as much as you'll get :/

In 1989 Annie interviewed Mike for tv purposes. The session was called "One to one" and recorded on VHS. Between Mike's answers there were a couple of video clips like "Blue Peter" and "Innocent".
