Dolly Dots

Dolly Dots were a popular Dutch girl band in the 1980s whose members were Angela Groothuizen, Angéla Kramers, Anita Heilker, Esther Oosterbeek, Patty Zomer and Ria Brieffies. Despite recording almost excluively in English, the group never had a hit in the UK. (read more on Wikipedia..)

Peel met the group while filming for the Top of the Pops European chart feature for the 23 June 1983 (TOTP) show. He introduced them as "a kind of double Bananarama with a cherry on the top" and a short clip of their video for the single "Money Lover” was shown. He was then filmed sitting outside with the all-girl group and described them as "six innocent fawn-like creatures in search of a father figure". The girls then gave the Dutch chart top ten rundown.
