Since I posted this on QZ's facebook page, I thought I would share it here too. It is John and Roger being interviewed on the 1000th Edition of Top Of The Pops broadcast on 5th May 1983.
Unfortunately it is only a pic that I got from a screen grab off the BBC Player from a show called Top Of The Pops - The Story Of 1983 shown recently. Simon Bates asked them 1 question each. First he asked Roger when was the last time they appeared on TOTP. Roger wrongly replied "Under Pressure". Then Simon asked John "Wasnt that your only number 1?". John replied "Dont forget Bohemian Rhapsody".
The likelihood of the actual show being broadcast as part of the rerun on TOTP 1983 is highly unlikely since Jimmy Saville and Gary Glitter are on it.

Is there a link to a BBC stream of the episode? If so, then surely someone can capture it.
I think I might know somebody who has the broadcast.
