Notes	Documentary to promote the "Super Trouper" album. According to ABBA Magazine No.35 (May 1981), "When CBS wanted to advertiser "Super Trouper" on TV they took a film crew over to Stockholm to do some interviews. When they got back to London the production company (called 'The Shooting Lodge') found they had over an hour's worth of extra video 'footage'. CBS thought it would be crazy to waste it all and so they added a few promotional cuts and, hey presto, a 'TV Special'." The programme includes a complete live clip of "The Way Old Friends Do." and also featured the PROMOs "The Winner Takes it all", "I Have a Dream", "On & On & On", "Super Trouper", "Chiquitita" and "Happy New Year" The interviews from this programme were used on the Dutch programme "ABBA '82" broadcast by TROS which also featured parts of the PROMOS for "On and On and On", "One Man, One Woman", "One Of Us", "When All Is Said And Done ", "The Way Old Friends Do" (from Words & Music), "Head Over Heels" and (again) "On and On and On."
Duration	33 minutes
Watch Out For	Different footage of the "Super Trouper" sessions from the PROMOS for Super Trouper and Felicidad and Happy New Year (perhaps it wasn't used in those PROMOS as it's quite bright)
