このコンテンツについて

We're Luke & John, two mates who've been working behind the scenes in television for nearly fifty years between us, trying to crack its secret. We're on a mission to create the dream schedule for our very own TV station, Cracking TV.

In each episode we'll be talking about classic shows from a particular genre, picking one to fill a slot in our schedule. We're going to find the ultimate programmes for the ultimate TV channel.

We'll take it in turns to be the commissioner and the pitcher; the pitcher will bring a number of shows in the hope of scoring that big commission. However, the commissioner's already got a first-rate show in mind. Will the pitcher successfully get one of his shows commissioned, or will he fail and suffer the embarrassment of being thrown out of the commissioner’s office in disgrace?

    Top of the Pops - 00s Crash
    2025/12/16

    Who killed Top of the Pops?

    We leap into the 21st century… as TOTP is heads towards its doom.

    John will pitch the Chris Cowey, Andi Peters and Mark Cooper eras.

    And Luke must choose the best era of all.

    John has nine chances to win — surely he can’t fail this time?


    Cracking TV is produced and presented by Luke Sluman and John Furlong.

    Our rather marvellous theme tune was written and performed by Simon McInerney.

    Top of the Pops - 90s Hangover
    2025/12/02

    The 90s are dawning, and Top of the Pops is on a comedown after the excesses of the 80s. Paul Ciani tries to keep the party going, but before long Stanley Appel decides a Year Zero approach is needed. That doesn't last either, and Ric Blaxill is charged with saving the show.

    Can John convince Luke that any of these eras bear comparison with the glory days of old?

    There's no shortage of exciting music - from grunge to techno, Britpop to Girl Power - and there are even some genuinely funny hosts. But with viewing figures hitting an all-time low, it's going to be a tricky set of pitches.

  • Top of the Pops - 80s Party

    Top of the Pops - 80s Party
    2025/11/18

    We move into the 80s, and Luke's favourite era of Top of the Pops: the Michael Hurll years.

    It's a massive party, with balloons, lasers, and cheerleaders. There's even a roundabout.

    Great presenters like Kid Jenson, Janice Long, and John Peel. Amazing performances from Culture Club, Shalamar, and Dexys Midnight Runners. And let's say a 'memorable' outing for New Order.

    Enjoy it, or Hurll will come running down from the gallery very annoyed.
