    Who are these contestants? They must be British celebs. They’re acting too confident on camera to be Joe Public. I can’t believe they don’t know who Mike is!! Even after seeing the music video clip. Am I missing something? Are they supposed to get the answer wrong to win? Poor Mike…I wonder if that bruised his ego. Would they have known Mark if he had been on instead?

    In 1989 Level 42 appeared as the “house-band” behind The Prince’s Trust Concert held at the NEC in Birmingham. They played with Alexander O’Neal! It’s unbelievable.

    Lol are you kidding me? How the heck did they not know who Mike was? He looks almost exactly the same in the LIL video as he did on that show!

    I don’t know that the contestants actually got to SEE the video, if you watch, they just cut away to it. But since I’m US, I never saw the actual show, so I don’t know for sure. But you’d think that if they actually see the video, they’d KNOW to look at all the people in it for a mental picture. That just makes me think the video was only shown to the viewers.

    As well, by 2002, Level 42 weren’t all that fashionable with the general public. I know Phil Jupitus did stuff with people like Billy Bragg, not exactly the same musical circles as Level 42. Though if I remember, he’s from Isle of Wight… so you’d think.

    Hi everyone.
    Already posted on this one twice (not mentioning all my other posts, eek!), so have been watching and hoping that someone would answer a few of the questions posted, alas, no one has yet so apologies for those utterly fed up of me by now for the following post :)
    Firstly, thank you so much level42rdabest for posting this on youtube, its brilliant, and to Morgan for putting the link on here, I owe you both!!
    Um, it’s difficult to explain Never Mind The Buzzcocks, the point isn’t to lose, but it’s not really to win either! It’s just about having fun answering the questions, there is no incentive to win on this show, it’s just good fun. As for the celebs on the team being pants, I stand by this, but to give Phil his due, it looks like he knew who Mike was but got roped into going with his teams answer as part of the joke..hard to tell without watching the whole episode. Lol, Mikes ego, what ego?! I don’t think Mike was offended in the slightest, he is far too lovely to take that to heart.
    And finally, no, they don’t see the clip, so they wouldn’t have seen Mike in Lessons In Love, this is just shown to the viewers at home only.
    Hope thats helped.
    Love to all LevelHeads as always.
