3 . The 1987 Great Storm was one of the UKâs worst. On the night of October 16, 1987, an âextreme variant of an extra-tropical cycloneâ (Risk Management Solutions Inc. âThe Great Storm of 1987: 20-Year Retrospective.â London, 2007, p. 3) hit the south east region of England causing immense damage. Bob Prichard stated: âThe path of the most ferocious winds spawned earlier in the night had reached all of Sussex, Surrey and Kent, with mean speeds of up to 60kn. By 0400 UTC, there were mean speeds of up to 65kn and many gusts of up to 90knâ (Bob Prichard, âThe Great Storm of 16th October 1987.â Weather 67, No. 10, 2012, p. 256).

8 . In interviews, Sioux often referred to Forbesâs The Stepford Wives. The Creaturesâ âSo Unrealâ was written about the film and Ira Levinâs novel of the same name on which the film was based. In an episode of ITVâs Video View on Night Network, which aired on July 30, 1988, Sioux describes 1980s band Prefab Sprout as looking â. . . like theyâve escaped from The Stepford Wives. Itâs my worst nightmare, itâs supermarket music.â Episode available at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BMrCqLnzZds (accessed February 2018).
