As mentioned in this post for 100 Greatest Scary Moments – Between 2003 and 2005 Jimmy was often chosen to present C4 shows in the series “100 Greatest…”. Viewers were asked to vote, in whichever category had been chosen, and the results were counted down in a clips show. Various “talking heads” were brought in to deliver a soundbite and add fuel to the fire of family arguments as to whether a clip deserved to be higher or lower in the chart.
This show was The 100 Greatest Pop Videos and was broadcast by C4 on February 6th 2005. All 4 hours and 10 minutes of it.
I think this historseye list is the real thing (the results of the show’s poll) as it has Prince Charming at 46 (see below). Personally, I would have had Peter Gabriel’s Sledgehammer at number 1 – but that’s only because I’ve loved his music for many years and appreciate how long that video took to make.
But that’s music and comedy for you – if we all liked the same thing it would be boring!
The only other links I could find was this rather good review of some of the videos, from CustardTV, and this video pulling out number 46 – Adam Ant / Prince Charming.
