No...but yes, that's the other number... :-)
I was always more into "Tizwas", to be honest.
Edit: Fucking hell - is that you meeting JFK?

It's amazingthe shit you can find on the BBC message boards:
I asked a knowledgable friend, who said: "Heh
heh - well, I *could* always add my 2
penn'orth and make the following points:
1) Saturday Superstore's number was ALWAYS
01-811 8055 as it ran from 1982-1987, well
before the 071/081 split and PhONEday.
2) Going Live (1987-1994) also used 01-811
8055 until the 071/081 split (on May 6th
1990), when they then switched to 081-811
8181.
3) 081-811 8181 was carried over to Live and
Kicking in 1994 for part of the first series,
before PhONEday in 1995 when of course it
then changed to 0181-811 8181 (it was
sometime in March 1995, IIRC) and they kept
until the introduced their 0845-610 1515
number sometime in the last 2 years of the
programme.
4) If I were being *really* pedantic, Multi-
Coloured Swap Shop's ORIGINAL number (from
the first series, 1976-1977) was actually 01-
288 8055 - they only moved to the 01-811
8055 number in time for the second series in
1977.
I COULD, but I won't :)"
