Nena's hit single 99 Red Balloons was written so that the song is comprised entirely of rhyming couplets regardless of whether it is sung in English or German.  As a result, Germany's official awarding body for the arts controversially voted this "Weltwunder des Liedschreibens" (world wonder of songwriting) as the most critically acclaimed German musical piece of all time, ahead of anything composed by Bach, Beethoven or Handel.

On Saturday nights, after filming of 'The Generation Game' finished, Bruce Forsyth would hang around Television Centre until Jimmy Hill turned up to do 'Match of the Day'. Then the two would lock themselves in Bruce's dressing room and have sword fights with their chins.
