I think it was 1978

Around that time Wikepedia says
"the packaging of the group's greatest hits in Twenty Golden Greats by EMI in 1977 prompted the group to reform yet again for a tour featuring Francis Monkman from Sky on keyboards, leading to a number one album. Francis left after that tour and the line-up settled as Marvin, Welch and Bennett, supplemented on records and gigs by Cliff Hall (keyboards) and Alan Jones (bass).

according to the telly the prog was called "TOP OF THE POPS" 1979.

Wikipedia agrees with 1978:

and with Cliff Hall and Alan Jones looking to be the most likely candidates for keyboards and bass respectively:

Thanks/Diolch to all so far. I tried a Wikipedia search, but you guys had more luck than me. You all seem to have the same answer, so I'm happy!!

The bass player is George Ford, who was previously with Cockney Rebel. He covered for Alan Jones during 1979 and early 1980.

Thanks/Diolch Nana07 - That rings a bell with me. He was bril, and almost plays a lead bass for part of the live version; similar to some of the bass playing of John Deacon with Queen.
