Nothing like that.

It is something which they've all done once. If I told you the people who did it regularly, you'd get it straight away.

Said the Cardinal cryptically

EDIT: Actually Hulk Hogan might have done it more than once. I can't be arsed checking. But you get the general idea.

Come on Jimmy Savile
I don't know if anyone has had that dubious honour.

BIG CLUE: They've all appeared on the same TV show

Yes. (it is too obvious, not yes it's right).

This is a live action TV show.

Dunno what falls into the live action genre but wernt the Hulk and Boy George both in the A TEam

Sorry, didn't mean live in that sense.

Yes. All those chaps have appeared in the A-team... Boy George's appearance was particularly laughable... unbelievably Mr T reveals that he is a big fan of Culture Club....

Over to Monkey.

Whoops sorry took my eye off the ball a bit there as didnt expect to get it having been misled by the Cardinal.

Anyway straightforward one I think- what is widely acknowledged as the pop song that has been covered the most times?
