No Limits was a BBC2 pop music television programme that ran in four series from 1985 to 1987. It was created by Jonathan King as a British version of his series "Entertainment USA" and would usually would go out in a teatime slot such as Tuesdays at 7pm. The show's logo was a roadsign with a red ring and a black dash.

The show was presented in its first series by Jeremy Legg and Lisa Maxwell, and for the remaining 3 series by Tony Baker and Jenny Powell. The presenters regularly took part in stunts like jetbiking.

Each week the show was set in a different town or location, and as well as pop videos had its own specially made pop videos about that location and some things it's famous for.

The show also had both UK and US chart countdowns.

The show was also one of the first to feature strange, lopsided camera angles which are now the norm in much of TV.
