Every Tuesday at 9pm Off The Chart takes a sideways look at the UK singles chart from the corresponding week in a particular ’80s year. A trip down Memory Lane that takes a detour down Don’t Remember This One Avenue and gets you lost in What The Hell’s This? Cul-De-Sac.

Looking for a retro chart show that doesn’t just play the familiar hits? You’ve found it.

2 June 1980

Off The Chart: 2 June 1980

Were you frightened? Were you scared? Were you thrown into confusion? Yeah, we get that a lot on Off The Chart, but it wasn't an illusion, oh no, we really do have two hours of obscure, forgotten and neglected hits from today in 1980! Join us and we'll even throw in a mix of hits from other charts, some of the day's news stories, TV and radio highlights, the gig guide, a track from one of today's Peel sessions, a hit from the New Zealand chart and the top five in full, no doubt about it.
