Editing Pan's People (section)

==Life after ''TOTP''==
Even after their departure from ''Top of the Pops'' Pan's People were much in demand for personal appearances. Dee Dee Wilde continued to dance with and manage a new group of girls under the name `New Pan's People`: Pauline Crawford, Abigail Higgins, Patricia McSherry, Francesca Whitburn and Sarah Woollett. Also members for a short time during this period were the future Hot Gossip dancers Sarah Brightman and Carol Fletcher. In 1979, the troupe released another single ''Magic Man''/''Club Lido'' in New Zealand on the RTC label.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.discogs.com/release/6242034-Magic-Magic-Magic-Man-Club-Lido|title=Magic, Magic – Magic Man / Club Lido (1979, Vinyl)|access-date=23 October 2021|website=Discogs.com}}</ref> ''Club Lido'' was subsequently released in the UK on the GM label. It failed to chart, and was correctly predicted to be a 'miss' when it was reviewed by the panel on an edition of ''[[Juke Box Jury]]'' broadcast on 18 August 1979 on BBC1, when the group appeared as a surprise to the panel of [[Showaddywaddy|Dave Bartram]], [[Keith Chegwin]], [[Dana Rosemary Scallon|Dana]] and [[Bonnie Tyler]].<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.discogs.com/release/3146024-Pans-People-Club-Lido|title=Pan's People – Club Lido (1979, Vinyl)|access-date=23 October 2021|website=Discogs.com}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|url=https://genome.ch.bbc.co.uk/216be6d921fa47d68c2ac02eff9e8d42|title=Broadcast - BBC Programme Index|website=Genome.ch.bbc.co.uk|access-date=23 October 2021}}</ref>
