1987 No.18 (full issue)...

One from 1987 purchased recently, the cover star is Anneka Rice, of Treasure Hunt, and there is a feature on this fabulous programme inside.  Also there is Gary Lineker in sports, Five Star's Stedman is interviewed too, and Delroy is the Collect a Page.  No poster in this issue, instead there is a Do-It supplement based on the hugely popular series at the time.  Unfortunately it is nearly as big as an issue of Look-in, so I will do this another week when there is little to scan.....enjoy...
