The problem with watching the world's fastest rock show is that you can't even pop out to put the kettle on without missing miles of music and mirth.
So in the No Limits 'Happy Hour' tonight, Tony Baker and Jenny Powell serve up the usual selection of rock cocktails with the added incentive of highlights from the first eight shows of the series. But this heady brew won't get in the way of a sober look at this week's
British and American charts.

No Limits for Erasure
Everyone knows Erasure - don't they? So, what band was Vince Clarke in? Where's Yazoo? What's Assembly doing? And who is Andy Bell anyway?
All questions answered as Jenny Powell takes the No Limits cameras for a Bank Holiday burst of Brighton rock with Erasure live on stage at the Brighton Dome.

BOB ANDERSON will be there and everyone in the darts world will be wondering whether ERIC BRISTOW , deposed 'king of the oche', will be able to make it his third title! But don't leave out the current holder
JOCKY WILSON who has now moved to the north east and will have a huge following.
The championship has now moved up to top gear with a possible 13 sets to go, three legs per set, with BBCtv outside broadcast cameras giving live coverage of the whole of the final.

A Man Escaped (Un condamne à mort s'estechappe) starring
Francois Leterrier
Condemned to death by the Nazis, Fontaine, a young Resistance fighter, begins to engineer an escape. His progress is achingly slow, and no one has ever succeeded in escaping from the Fort de Montluc.
