That's Steve Ryde, the same guy who used to do the continuity announcements on CITV in the 1990s (before it had on-screen presenters). He then went on to administer the relaunch of CITV in 1998 before jumping ships to CBBC. So you're listening to the same guy who used to introduce Fun House, Art Attack, How 2, Tots TV, Rosie and Jim and countless other 1990s CITV programmes I could mention if I cared to remember them!
As an adult now, you gain a new appreciation for this game. I never felt the awkwardness before like I do now. I'm actually nervous for them! As a kid it was just funny to see who was brave enough to shout a funny word the loudest, but as a socially aware adult, this kills me. What a time to be a kid this was.
This was amazing, it's a line between adult humor and children's. I loved ever second of this but it saddens me that children now will never get TV like this what with all the regulations and the fact that the BBC has gotten so up tight now.
I am 39 years old and just told an American friend about this game, and now I'm here giggling to myself over the most ridiculous game of the millennium. Why was this always so fucking funny?! My cheeks hurt from laughter. 😂
I’ve never seen this as a kid, I’m from 2000, but I swear 2:40 to 2:49 is that little thing that always makes me laugh. Reminds me of the good times you spend with friends when you just can’t stop laughing.
Sam Morgan No, as it was obvious set up shite. Did no one notice the fucking massive TV camera that would've been filming them. No tiny Go pros back then.
