The Roxy - Episode 28 (December 15, 1987)

Presented by David "Kid" Jensen and Kevin Sharkey, this series used a weekly chart distributed by Satellite Media Services, produced by Capital Radio and compiled by the Media Research Information Bureau (MRIB). You could hear "Kid" count them down every Sunday afternoon from 5pm, in competition with BBC Radio 1's own chart show.
This week, it's an all-video edition. They ran out of pre-recorded live performances. How long do these industrial actions go on?
Videos:
Wet Wet Wet - "Angel Eyes (Home and Away)" [#26]
New Order - "Touched By the Hand of God" [#25, highest new entry]
Simply Red - "Every Time We Say Goodbye" [#20]
Belinda Carlisle - "Heaven Is A Place on Earth" [#30]
Pogues & Kirsty McColl - "Fairytale of New York" [#9]
Level 42 - "Children Say" [#23]
Rick Astley - "When I Fall In Love" [New #1]
Notes:
* I can only assume that next week is the year-end show. Unfortunately, it's not available in Matt's folder, so this is the last episode we have featuring David "The Kid" Jensen. This is also (in our video records) the last episode featuring the original title of The Roxy. Thankfully, it's also the last episode with that ugly logo.

The "Best of 1987" episode is unavailable from my source. So yes, this is the last episode of 1987 in this set.
