I have sympathy with Colin Baker, Nicola Bryant and Anthony Ainley all of whom, presumably, were asked specifically by JNT to take part.

What bemuses me slightly is the pre-eminence given to Faith Brown in all the publicity (presumably at JNT's behest) who I had not heard of at the time, and haven't since, compared to members of Bucks Fizz and Ultravox who I was aware of.

But yes, sympathy for regular cast members aside. It makes everyone who participated entirely voluntarily look silly.
