Blue Peter's resident daredevil, the one and only John Noakes, tries his hand at a bit of tobogganing at the legendary Cresta Run course in the Swiss town of St. Moritz. The British-run Cresta Club hosted the Olympic Skeleton contest at the 1928 and 1948 Winter Games.
Originally broadcast 5 February, 1976.
Blue Peter is still going strong, with new editions of the show broadcast live on CBBC and BBC iPlayer every Friday at 5pm: www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode...

Climbed Nelson's Column, flew with the Red Arrows, did a record-breaking sky-dive, threw himself down the Cresta Run: Noakes remains a legend. It was damned good being a kid in '76.

@neilbowers6956 2 года назад

Watching these men do Skeleton runs on very basic sleds. Now, Team GB alone spend millions on areo dynamics and getting the perfect sled. John Noakes was a true Blue Peter legend.

So glad to have grown up in this era of kids TV. No bs, its just as it was, no scripts persay, just showing the presenters living the experience. Look at the pads! Great stuff.

@@jamiecullum5567 Thats why I did say persay and not that they did everything adlib. Thats also why im glad I watched this era as it enabled me to be concise and make correct statements I can justify, especially if others cant read whats in front of them or interpret it themselves.

Wow, I remember watching this when I was about 20. John Noakes was my hero. The way he put his life on the line with his daredevil antics . He was an inspiration to youngsters. Not like todays overpaid cry babies on I’m a celebrity this that and the other. The man is a LEGEND. If anyone in show business deserved a knighthood it was John. 👍

@hopebgood Месяц назад

I was 16 and with my best mate on the back of an old London Routemaster bus and as it was speeding along over a local bridge I said JOKINGLY to my mate "I'm gonna jump off" with absolutely no intention of actually doing it. The next thing I knew I was rolling and tumbling head over heels in the gutter. To this day I still don't know exactly what happened. It was just a laugh 😀

No, that was a year previously. Fair play to John though for doing the Cresta on a glorified tea-tray after that horrific smash-up.

@richardhunter7363 2 года назад

@@highdownmartin I think you are right if I remember correctly - plus John mentioned at the start of this that the Cresta Run was not like the bob run he had done and crashed at before. I remember watching the show where John showed off the battle scars after the crash - the bruising was fairly awesome.

Classic television from a great era for kid's TV. If you want the equivalent in print, then read the chapter from Ian Fleming's novel 'On Her Majesty's Secret Service' in which James Bond chases the arch-villain Blofeld - also on a bobsleigh - down the mountain. It's also pretty graphic - and terrifying !
