C4 The Chart Show

The show plays fewer clips than normal due to the dispute between broadcasters and the British Phonographic Industry over the use of music in promo clips.

From Music week 7th June 1986 'Record companies are carrying out their threat not to supply video clips to ITV and Channel 4 in a wrangle over payments. But the BBC, including Top Of The Pops, will continue to receive the promo videos while talks continue. The BPI is asking for a screening fee of approximately £500 per clip. The back up threat of action also came from the Musician's Union and Phonographic Performance Limited relating to the music soundtracks.'

From Music Week 21st June 1986. 'The Chart Show was putting together (a show) consisting of material from non-BPI members with a few peripheral items such as Queen's Friends Will Be Friends. Queen claim to own the rights to their video, but investigations are understood to be taking place with who hold the rights to the sound recording. IRS had withdrawn its support from the BPI’s stand, but had not resigned over the issue. Island had supplied clips for the 6th June 1986 show and although it supports the BPI action it didn't support the way it had gone about it.’

Yorkshire Music Box

The cable music channel broadcasts between 12:00 pm - 6:00 am

From Music Week 5th July 1986. 'Both Tyne Tees and BBC have signed agreements with the BPI ending their involvement in the row over payments over clips on TV'. Tyne Tees was the first ITV company to sign the agreement with Yorkshire following suit the following week, so they could proceed with the experiment with Music Box. Both BBC and Tyne Tees agreements were annual fee payments, not a 'per clip' payment. The BBC eventually paid £150,000 per annum.

C4 The Chart Show

Show reinstated following an agreement between the show's producers and the BPI.

From Music Week 23rd August 1986. 'TV clip war over. Conditions secret. Producer (of The Chart Show) Jill Sinclair expresses relief. I'm glad to be in a job still. After six weeks I thought we might be off the air for good. We rather naively thought that shows like ours were being a service to the music industry and it was horrible to find we were Public Enemy Number One'. Jill Sinclair would leave The Chart Show in December.
