Great stuff. You'd not get ads like this anymore 1:50 "So light it won't ruin your appitite"! milky way chocolate Plus great acting from the twins. Would of scared me alot Caravan and the last one were extreme! LOL
@@closedaccount411 unfortunately I live in Watford Hertfordshire and I have Virgin TV and Freeview unfortunately we don't get it which is a shame. Added sort a channel that I'll be watching all the time as you mentioned they have beadles About Hale and Pace and Benny Hill amongst others.
great find, why would they use an older, younger picture of beadle from the early series for a 90s series on the tyne tees slide? and the breakslide running all the way through ,
It must have taken some guts to be the squatters and the council man and also the waitress who threw the soup. Great acting by the waitress and the restaurant manager.
ITV network moved Beadle's About from Saturday nights to Fridays for the start of Series 8 - by 1993 the show had taken a large dip in the ratings. And ratings would never recover from Series 8 onward.
Strange, Wikipedia has the series marked as airing on Saturdays. I see a promo on RU-vid for season 9 airing at 6.35 on Saturday evening. And I can certainly remember Central airing series 10 on Saturdays, albeit demoted to around 5pm. I'm wondering if some regions chose to opt out of the network for Beadle's about on Friday's? There's certainly some confusing and conflicting evidence.
Hard to believe it's not fake - he's taking a whole vat of soup in a restaurant and just stands there. If that was me - the shit would hit the fan in a very big way.
Yes - except I'm thinking they did their homework and tailored the action to each person and had some kind of plan in place just in case they go beserk. He seemed like a really laid back good bloke - not his style, and they knew it.
They must have had good faith in the persons played tricks on not getting violent. Had I been poured soup over like that last one several times, I had probably at least grabbed that waitress hard and yelled at her. And... it's not like I feel everything is excusable from the productions team's side, just because they're making a show. My guess is that they probably had several cases where their «victims» didn't laugh when Beadle revealed himself, but those instances were never shown on TV... ergo the audience thinks it never happened. I love watching things like this myself. But I think we should also have the backside of it in mind while doing it...
@@dlk1dlk1 Actually, that never crossed my mind. But now that you ask: No, I don't think so. The producers could probably blame the friend or family member who contacted them in the first place, if the «victim» goes more bananas than they accounted for and threatens to sue them...
