The KLF’s Bill Drummond - Interview on The Other Side of Midnight (with Tony Wilson): Episode 37. Broadcast by Granada Television in the UK on the 23rd of February 1989.

In the wake of the success of ‘Doctorin’ The Tardis’ as The Timelords, The KLF’s Bill Drummond and Jimmy Cauty penned ‘The Manual (How To Have A Number One The Easy Way)’, a tongue-in-cheek guide to hitting the top of the charts. To promote the book, Drummond appeared on Factory Records head honcho Tony Wilson’s TV show ‘The Other Side Of Midnight’ wearing a moustache drawn on paper with a felt-tip pen, as he felt “the real iconic figures have based their status on their ‘tache”. Drummond later admitted his error, “Afterwards I just thought, what a fucking arsehole I was to do that”.
