The new that Dick Clark died last week wasn't a big deal on this side of the Atlantic. It was a big deal in the US, however, because of Clark's long-standing association with American Bandstand. This little piece details some of the highlights (and lowlights) of his long career, including interviews and performances from the likes of Madonna, Devo, Run DMC, The Beach Boys and more. However, it's mostly of interest for an absolutely jaw-dropping 10 minutes of Clark trying to corral a recalcitrant Metal Box-era Public Image Ltd. Even though it's over 30 years old, it's as much must-see TV as this week's episode of Homeland.
