      Heidi and Bobby had the sense to recognise that holiday camps would be the main source of income, and Heidi is clearly a smart business operator. The egomaniac wouldn’t accept it. DVD is possibly the most repulsive “celeb” I’m aware of. A self made parody of showbiz and now politics. Narcissistic sociopath.

      The thing is - what does it matter WHO owns the name of a band, if they AREN'T in it? How can it be Bucks Fizz WITHOUT Cheryl and Jay, anyway?
      It's like a Tribute group, but without admitting that's what it is?

    27:00 "I felt we were in the boob age". Can't help but always chuckle at that but to be honest he was absolutely right as the old 80s act was rooted in the 50s with the long skirts and with the Lads' Mag culture of the '90s, ripping the tops off instead was the logical way to move it forward. The problem seemed to be that Bobby Gee had a traditional view of the act and David wanted it to evolve. Two strong characters with very opposing ideas, no wonder it all hit the rocks.

To be fair though at least DVD seemed to have enjoyed the 'riches' of being a pop star, drinking, who knows what else and you can imagine the sheer volume of suburban tarts who were lucky enough to have spent an evening with him......Luke Haines brilliantly describes this doc in his latest book 'Freaks Out' and superbly describes Bobby G and Heidi as David St Hubbins and Jeanine

      5+ top 10's. Bucks Fizz probably hit number 1 a fair few times. They genuinely were pretty popular, when record sales actually mattered more importantly. Cheesy, lowest common denominator, yes. But definitely "legends" to at least some people.
