Did anybody ever see The JAMs/KLF promo for "Downtown" on The Chart Show circa late 1987?

Was reading about it in the sleevenotes to the KLF compilation "Shag Times"; apparently they filmed themselves driving to the Chart Show studio,and then presented the video footage as a promo for the single "Downtown".

I have that episode of the Chart Show on tape somewhere. It's quite funny. So basically, the story is true!

i'm sure this 17 year+ old request is no longer critical, but for the sake of closing the loop on this thread:

I thought the Chart Show video was for "Whitney joins the jams" but either way it's not on the Snub TV bit.
