i thought since they "revamped" it (made it even worse with that camp guy) that miming performances weren't allowed anymore on it...

[editty] found this abuot nirvana:

London, UK, BBC Studios (Top Of The Pops). The band record their appearance for 'Top of the Pops'. Originally the BBC insisted that the band mime their parts (singing and playing). After negotiation Kurt is allowed to sing his part live, which he does in a falsetto voice, whilst the rest of the band mime their parts (ridiculously!). The producers asked Kurt to sing his part again, but he said that he was happy with the way it sounded.
