At dinner at a pleasant French restaurant last night, we discovered that we all had, by some coincidence, watched Tony Blackburn’s 1970s video selections on TMF (free-to-air digital music channel) at the weekend.

Thanks to YouTube, you can decide for yourself:
Baccarat are still performing – at least, they were on Russian TV a couple of years ago and wearing well, still singing yes sir….
Like Boney M and Smokie, they are one of those acts that remain popular in the former USSR
