Freeman revived Pick of the Pops on the local London station, Capital Radio, from 1982 to the end of 1988 as Pick of the Pops - Take Two, combining the new chart (Top 15s compiled successively by Record Business, the NME and MRIB) with a chart from the past.
The slot was superseded by a similar retro show for the first nine months of 1993 under the title Ones On 1FM, presented by Man Ezeke, with number ones from all types of music charts in the UK and other countries.
