Hosted by former Wack-a-day co-presenter Michaela Strachan and one third of the 80s UK pop production trio, Pete Waterman of SAW, The Hit-man and Her was a late night clubbing show, shown during the early hours of Saturday till Sunday morning in Britain during the late 80s.
The format for this programme was that Michela and Pete would tour the regions of Britain for various dance clubs and thus, clubbers would appear on the show-often looking worse for wear- and prance about to the beat of the music and thus, showing off their dance moves. There were also fun and games with numerous dance competitions taking place, for example.
The Hit-man and her also helped propel and establish the pop careers of Kylie Minogue, Sonia Evans and The London Boys to name to chart success, after their initial appearances on the programme. Although in truth, this was a PWL-led promotional vehicle for many of its acts, courtesy of Pete himself.
Overall, a good clubbing show that deserves a return to our TV screens, for sure
