In support of their disc jockey, BBC Radio banned the single from its shows a reported two days later (although certain prominent night-time BBC shows – including those of Kid Jensen and John Peel – continued to play the record, as they saw fit, during 1984). The now-banned "Relax" rose to no. 2 on the charts by 17 January, and hit the number-one spot on 24 January.
