That Yorkie joke would not do well in this day and age lol!! Thank you so much for uploading these episodes, a real blast from the past. Used to watch this all the time
Our family still remember one Christmas day when the Granada continuity announcer got more and more visibly "merry" as the evening went on. Was it Colin or is that my memory playing tricks?!
Why was it released by Manga Video when it was supposed to be released by Warner Home Video or MGM, considering the US release was released by Orion Video
What a fool ian wright was Why would you go on a comedy show and complain that people are laughing about people? Its a comedy show, laughing at sport stars, and ian wright thinks people should not be laughing about sports stars. Fool I cannot believe i liked him in years i watched arsenal when young, glad i do not look upto such people today, and i stopped watching arsenal in 2002 Why would anyone go on such a show, and shout and moan at people laughing at sports people, when thats what the bloody show is about.
You people forgot to laugh about how ronaldhino, and naymar were not the only people to lob the ball over seaman in goal for arsenal Lee dixon scored an own goal from just inside the half way line over seaman, ie be lobbed the ball over seaman, from just inside half way line, ie it was an own goal So these people forgot it happened at least 3 times to seaman in goal
2:40 Why didn't DI Gower take the opportunity to point out England won the 1985 Ashes and won the Edgbaston Test by an innings with DI Gower scoring 215. Obviously DI Gower was so blase about it he didn't even notice.
2:20 Fucking hell! I'm from Nuneaton and was at the 2/3 empty new Britannia Stadium for the 0-0 draw v Stoke. Was it really 23 years ago? Alas I wasn't at Manor Park for the replay which we won 1-0. Bloody Nora! Now we're bankrupt.
Sadly Adrian Nicholas, Gary and Rory's Feel the Sportsman subject, died in 2005 following a parachuting accident in the Netherlands (I should hasten to add that he was *_not_* using the Da Vinci parachute at the time, he was using a conventional parachute setup). He was performing a high-speed landing manoeuvre which led his automatic activation device to accidentally deploy his reserve parachute which got entangled with his main parachute. While he attempted to correct himself by releasing his main parachute, he still descended too quickly and hit the ground hard enough that he died at the scene from his injuries. He was 43 years old.
1. jeffrey archer's first line when on this tv show (to quickly ingratiate himself with the `right on' studio audience) - "baseball has `the world series' but only american teams are in it." none of the "quick witted" smart alec sport expert panelists - "canada also have teams in the baseball world series - but we're not surprised that you'd want to forget canada - you were once caught shoplifting there." 2. a new term coined from this tv show - the `leboeuf gap' - the difference in reaction between the studio audience and the tv audience watching at home (from the appearance of french footballer frank leboeuf where such a gap was extremely wide indeed).
One i remember Was on channel hopping were The answer is The west wing. Amd this guy was in a chicken suit and raise his left arm to a clue which was a Wing, but one of the team captains was clueless.
I remember seeing this when I was 13. My friend brought Dominion Tank Police to school and watched together in 1998. I grew up watching anime in Arabic and Italian dubbed versions in the early 90s.
