Poll Winners Show 

This was the Fourth year that the Smash Hits Poll Winners Party took place.

 

The event was from London Arena - Docklands in London and was broadcast by BBC TV in association with Proset Music Cards.

 

The Director was Terry Jervis. The Producer was Sharon Ali

 

The party was on Sunday 27th October 1990 and was broadcast on BBC1 at 3.30 pm and Radio 1.

Phillip Schofield presented the show.

 

The event was notorious for the incident in 1991 involving Phillip Schofield and Carter USM, when the band's performance was cut short, causing them to trash up the stage.

 

Following this, when Schofield made a remark about the band's behavior, their guitarist Les "Fruitbat" Carter rugby tackled Schofield. The band was temporarily banned from performing on television, but its ticket sales for its tour soared.
