and music duo Tik and Tok (Tim Dry and Sean Crawford) began performing together with SHOCK: a rock/mime/burlesque/music troupe in the early 1980s with Barbie Wilde, Robert Pereno, LA Richards and Carole Caplin.

Shock's first record 'Angel Face', with production by Rusty Egan (Visage) and Richard James Burgess (Landscape) was a modest dance floor hit. In 1981, Shock co-starred with Ultravox at the legendary 'People's Palace Valentine's Ball' at the Rainbow Theatre. This was the moment when the New Romantic scene exploded and went from being an obscure cult to a global trend.

Shock went on to support Gary Numan at his Wembley Arena shows in April, 1981. They eventually broke up and reformed as a foursome with Barbie, Tim, Sean and Carole and released the single, 'Dynamo Beat', on RCA Records. However, soon Tim and Sean as Tik and Tok broke away to form their own successful double act.

Tik and Tok went on to appear on innumerable TV shows (including The Royal Variety Show, 1983), supported Duran Duran at Birmingham Odeon in '82, worked with Vangelis at his home studio, were themselves supported by a fledgling Depeche Mode, got a huge amount of press coverage and released 5 singles and a well-received album on the Survival label in the UK, Germany and Japan. They went to Tokyo for a while and had cameos in the third Star Wars movie 'Return of the Jedi' and the cult sci-fi film, 'Xtro'. Last, but by no means least, they were the support act on Gary Numan's comeback 'Warriors' tour in 1983.
