Scene spends a day with Mick Tucker, Brian Connolly, Steve Priest and Andy Scott, better known as glam rock band The Sweet. The day begins with a trip to BBC Television Centre to record a performance of their hit single Block Buster!, with all the wardrobe, makeup and rehearsal that entails.
The band have become famous - and in some quarters, infamous - for their outrageous stage clothes, but they have also sold over 14 million records, and have a burgeoning fan club. What does it take to have a lasting career as a rock band? Is the music business really that glamorous? Why have they come in for such a hard time from the music press?
Sarah Ward narrates.
This clip is from Scene: All That Glitters. Originally broadcast 28 February, 1974.

1974 war ich in der 9. Klasse, ein neuer kam in die Klasse und der hatte die damalihen Hits der Gruppe Sweet auf Tonbandkassette. Durch ihn kenne ich die Gruppe. Später bekam jemamd aus meinem Freundeskreis eine Sweet Schallplatte aus dem Westen. Oh! Wahnsinn, jetzt konnte ich ie Musik in Stereo hören. Hab es damals auch aufgezeichnet, war dann endlich bei den Oldie FM Nächten live bei Sweet im Konzert, ein irres Gefühl. Hören und genießen war angesagt, nix abrocken ich musste ganz bewusst zuhören, wie beim Sinfoniekonzert, alle mir bekannten Hardrock Songs haben sie gespielt, außer The Sixteens, der mich auch an meine Jugend erinnert. Aber ich hatte sie live im Konzert erlebt. Top!

They evolved brilliantly from pop tunes to pretty heavy rock...the girls loved them and the boys wanted to be them...underrated musicians...top band

The 80's hair metal bands owe a great deal to Sweet.

The 70s.....what a time to be alive.

So underrated!! They influenced many bands . Sweet and Slade should be recognized at the rock hall fame ! Such a joke that they are not part of it yet !

The 70's was the best decade for music imo. Loved The Sweet. Still play their stuff to this day.

I found this by accident, and oh what a trip down memory lane! I loved the Sweet and it broke my heart when Brian passed. That was horrific. So sad, but lovely to see them again in their prime!

Steve Priest, an utter oddity on ToTPs in the 1970s to a schoolkid like me! In the above video he's dressed like a comic Hitler, and I remember this appearance! He used to 'camp it up' for the cameras. A great performer. Rest in peace.

What a group of legends. I was born in 1993, but my uncle got me into their music and I just love them since my childhood.
RIP Brian, Mick and Steve
Your music is for the eternity

Their self penned 'Action' really showed that they could write a great powerful Rock song.

It's nice to see them in their heyday and to hear their thoughts about their success after years of obscurity.
