Notes: Paul and Linda were guests on Noel Edmund`s BBC talk show "The Late Late Breakfast Show" in a hastily arranged interview after "Top of The Pops" refused to play
the promo video for "Say Say Say" due to their policy of not playing anything lower than #20 on the charts which was the chart placing for the song at that time.
Reportedly Paul was very upset and quick negotiations were needed to calm him down hence their appearance on Edmund`s show and the airing of the promo video.
Happily this all paid off as "Say Say Say" then stormed up the charts to the #2 position.
"Top of The Pops" then played the clip... typical.
