Trevor Horn made a surprise live appearance on Friday when he joined Sophie Grey for a version of Video Killed The Radio Star at the Forum in Kentish Town, London.

Grey is an electro-pop artist who harks back to the original golden age of the genre in the early 1980s - an era ushered in, of course, by The Buggles' hit.
