Trivia about Art Attack
The first Art Attacks were a strand within No. 73, and this segment proved so popular, Nigel Pickard, the executive producer of children's programming at TVS, green-lit the pilot.
The Art Attack pilot was shot on location at a disused swimming pool in Gillingham, Kent in 1989, and the series began the following year.
Throughout its run, the series used theme-music composed by Mr Miller & Mr Porter, and inspired at Buchanan's suggestion by the hit Kenny Loggins song Danger Zone, from the 1986 film Top Gun.
The Media Merchants used STV Studios (then known as "SMG Productions"), as the ITV company to get the series onto the network: this was partly due to the fact that Nigel Pickard had moved to Scottish Television.
In 1993, another ex-TVS employee, Peter Urie, set up a production management company, Television Support Services.
Buchanan and Edmunds met each other at Southern Television in 1982, and worked together on No. 73 and Do It!.
