Then there is a very odd sequence where there is a piece of card with some dance steps on it which Neil starts to rearrange which makes some dancers contort as they try to continue to follow the moves that have now been changed before they explode in a big pile of paint.

He is not wearing his usual red jumper, but a cap and suit which would constantly change colour thanks to some bizarre visual effects. Speaking exclusively to The Daily Star about the launch of his new creative collaboration with easyJet named AirCraft, Neil talked about inspiring the next generation of artists while throwing out some fun facts you may not know about Art Attack. Twitter was abuzz with a theory linking the two after a fan noticed that Banksy's art was popping up in locations where Neil had performed his music. Thirty years on since the show burst on to our screens, he is now rumoured to be the famous anonymous street artist, Banksy. After 17 years on ITV, Neil became a household name and was known for being clean-shaven and wearing a red jumper.
Neil Buchanan looks very different now to his days in his trademark red jumper on much-loved TV show Art Attack. Because it’s a special, for the first time Neil takes us behind the scenes of how a big Art Attack is organised, they don’t just throw these things together.

They explained that the theory was given credibility by the fact that Buchanan, like Banksy, is a musician - a former member of heavy metal band Marseille - and “art has followed in cities of shows he’s done allegedly”. He first joined Marseilles back in 1976, with the group releasing four albums and six singles together. However, the character was later brought to life on Art Attack, after Neil asked for a Spitting Image puppet of the character to be made instead.
Neil added: "I want you to come off that aeroplane having been creative, or thought about being creative. Neil revealed that the Art Attack head character was originally meant to be played by Richard Waites who starred as Cuthbert Lily in ZZZap, but when he was contracted to another job, this idea was put to one side.I decided to watch this as I was interested in how it all started and I presumed it would be very familiar to the version that started on CITV in 1990. is a registered trade mark of Reach Magazines Worldwide Limited and is used under licence by Reach Magazines Publishing Plc.
