Emu's World S3E3 (1983) - FULL EPISODE

Rod decides to try to give Emu a bath, while Grotbags realises she's in trouble with her union when she gets a visit from the Magnificent Fred. How will she try to redeem herself?
The Pink Windmill Kids chime in with renditions of Heart (from the musical Damn Yankees) and Discovery (originally by the New Mickey Mouse Club). I previously labelled this as the second episode in the series, but new evidence (i.e. another tape with all episodes recorded one after the other) suggests that this was actually broadcast third on Wednesday, 16th March, 1983.
(Please remember that this is an old VHS recording, so don't go expecting 1080p HD quality. I'm fairly certain that this video isn't commercially available, and I've uploaded it for its historic interest only. That said, if you are a copyright holder and object, please don't hesitate to contact me.)

Gotta admit, a lot of kids I remember used to hate their guts, especially the ones from the early series. They hated the Pink Windmill Kids' over saturated manners, the song-and-dance routines they'd randomly break into, and what came across as a bit of an unnervingly inhuman hivemind of perpetually cheery kids.

@VideotapeFTW 7 лет назад

Yep, good memory - when the show was at its peak in the mid-80s, it was in the last thing on a Friday slot on Children's ITV. :-)

@itsjemmabond 7 лет назад

VideotapeFTW I'm pretty sure it was only the All-Live shows that were shown Fridays, and the previous versions aired on weekdays.

@manc7808 7 лет назад

I was born in 1980 so was probably 4 or 5 years old when I was watching this, I just seem to remember it being on fridays. Just noticed this episode was 1983, So I was even younger when this one aired.

@VideotapeFTW 7 лет назад

As far as I know, five series between 1984 and 1987 were broadcast on a Friday, from the fifth series of Emu's World through to the first Emu's Wide World, and all the live ones in between.

Love this kid programme as a child in the 80's, I was ten year old when Emu World started on CITV, Rod Hull Emu and bad Grotbags and poor Croc getting Bash over the Head with Grotbags hand stick, I felt sorry for Croc, i'm sure Croc kept getting headache with all that bashing, if Croc was still around today with Grotbags, I'm sure Croc would sue Grotbags for Croc abuse, lol, Rest in peace Rod Hull who fell of his roof adjusting his tv aerial and Freddie Stevenson.

Oh well :) EDIT: I stand corrected, the girl's name is NOT "Anne-Louise", but rather "Anne-Marie" as an earlier comment said. I rewatched Episode 4 of this Series and the name on her sleeve does indeed say Anne-Marie.

@VideotapeFTW 7 лет назад

Great list, but help me out, please: which one's Anne-Louise, and which one's Ron?

@Maddie-ep9yv 7 лет назад

@@VideotapeFTW To me it seems more like a song that any of the 10 member lineups would sing but still it would be so cool if the kids did it in this episode! Also it would be so weird to hear Grotbags sing that. But I'm picturing Croc singing it and I'm getting a good laugh out of it!
