Thames Television "Database", 1984 - part two

A very helpful anon pointed out on the last post that the code to print stars and spaces, whcih I'd taken for mere decoration, actually prints a simple crossword grid:

          2
        4 *
        * *
      1******
        * *
      3******
        *


1) Arresting pop group
2) _ to me only
3) Four-star transport
4) Underwater computer language?
