1987 revisited

When the Beastie Boys arrived on British shores in 1987 for their first UK tour, car crime figures shot through the roof. Kids across the nation copied the band's style by stealing badges from Volkswagens to wear around their necks. If you're too young to remember the fashion epidemic caused by the hip hopsters, or you'd just like to relive some golden moments, then tune in to 1987 on Saturday night (BBC2, 9.05pm). The programme will cover the impact of the BBs, and will also take a look at the phenomenon of shell suits along with cult movie Withnail and I.
