I would imagine most of us have seen this Iconic TV show at some point in our lives since it first aired in the 60's.

If you were in charge of making a celebration show what 12 acts and songs would you choose.

1.Hotel California..The Eagles

2.I fought the Law...The Clash

3.Woman..John Lennon

4.Its a kind of Magic...Queen

5.Thriller....Michael Jackson

6.Breakfast in America...Supertramp

7.Wonderwall...Oasis

8.Love will tear us apart...Joy Division

9.The bitterest pill...The Jam

10.Umbrella...Rhianna

11.Ashes to Ashes...David Bowie

12.20th Century boy....T REX

Star man by David Bowie was an iconic moment on totp

So was Sparks singing "this town ain't big enough for the both of us" while Ron (or was it Russell) wore a silk kimono and pulled a gun out and started shooting.

Madness first appearance singing "one step beyond" while they all wore fezes.

Bob Geldof using a candelabra to simulate playing a sax during "rat trap"
