THE bobbing heads of the pogo-ing masses were greying at the temples and the banter between songs had more to do with babysitters, gardening and parking charges than sex, drugs and rock n' roll.

However, there's no doubt that Breamore thoroughly enjoyed rolling back the years in the company of some of the biggest chart acts of the 80s.

Saturday night saw Breamore Proms, staged in the grounds of the Elizabethan manor house, successfully recreate the decade of big hair and power ballads.

Altered Images, Toyah, Paul Young, Belinda Carlisle, Kim Wilde, Bananarama and Kid Creole and the Coconuts made up an impressive line-up.
