A fascinating book where the girls tell their stories Babs,Cherry,Dee Dee,Louise,Ruth and Flick Colby. Crammed full of facts and photos. A must for any of us who enjoyed the artistry of their dancing
i read this book earlier in the year, it's fantastic, lovely photos and very interesting, a few of the girls have died, andi rutherford, ruth pearson, louise clarke and the choreographer flick colby, dee dee is very much alive as are the rest of them, cherry gillespie, sue menhenick, babs powell(lord) mary corpe and lee ward, i love them, they were the sexiest, prettiest girls i've ever seen! i disagree about them being the only reason to watch top of the pops though, whilst pans were definitely the highlight that era was a golden age of pop music which i recall very fondly, also loved legs and co whom sue menhenick ex pans would join
The group after Legs and Co was called Zoo. The group between Pans People and Legs and Co was a mixed male/female group called Ruby Flipper. They only lasted a few months in 1976. For some Reason, I thought Hot Gossip was involved with TOTP. They were actually featured in the early 80s on the Kenny Everett show.
Pans People, beautiful girls I loved to copy them dancing.

I bought the book .Would have liked more details about the girls lives before and after PP . Also hardly anything in there about Andi Rutherford .
