Going for Gold!

This messageboard reminds me of Going for Gold presented by
Henry Kelly. It's seems somewhat unfair considering all the
foreigners had to talk in English!

I caught 5 seconds of Catchphrase on UK Gold two nights back
and wondered if Roy Walker was still alive - thank you for
answering that wonder.

Can you imagine, now, the dream team that presented Game for
a Laugh... Jeremy Beadle, Sarah Kennedy, Henry Kelly and
Matthew... Kelly, all sat on stools... on the same
stage
!!!! It would cost more money than there actually
is to get the gang back together, I bet.

It's sad the fates that befell them, they were such a jolly
bunch, laughing at stupid people's misfortune, like some
gods of greek myth, the folly of man, and yet ho! Sarah
Kennedy and the bottle, Beadle plagued by the big hand,
little hand, Matthew Kelly and the sex abuse charges, Henry
Kelly... well....

Oh I'll check that out, as they say. I read not so long ago
about some footage from the last days of Noel's House Party,
when they were rehearsing, and becoming increasingly
frantic, desperate and tetchy, the show not working, the
jokes not funny, Noel going apeshit, like the last days of,
I don't know, some light entertainment Soddom & Gommorah.

Fascinating, really, how some things, with the march of
time, just suddenly become anachronistic and unworkable. And
then, ten years later, kind of don't look as bad. Well,
depends.

HaHa! Excellent, the foul mouthed hairy cornflake.

Am I the only person to think that "hairy cornflake" sounds
like a euphemism for the male anus?

still good to see his reaction to being stitched up himself
by sir cmorris.

no mention of his wig though, i thought that rather odd. but
the program reeks of dailymail bashing. in any other
circumstances i might feel pity, but the guy is a complete
egocentric conceited prick so my conscious has decided to go
on holiday for 3 days.

Fair enough, the votes are all in and it looks pretty bleak.
My mum likes it, but then she's a wildcard when it comes to
recommendation . I tell you what I really wasn't impressed
with, though I only saw one episode, and never heard the
radio show, was Absolute Power. It made me uncomfortable and
I wasn't able to watch it all.

I quite liked "absolute power". I thought the 2nd series was
better than the 1st.

I wasn't impressed by "extras". I gave up after two
episodes.

re julie walters, having a brummie accent does not
constitute to being funny. ask frank skinner, ask his hair.

Ha! I'd already thought of her, and the American woman, and
the women in Absolutely, all of Goodness Gracious Me, Smack
the Pony, and that Scots lezza that was on "Apparantly I'm a
celebrity, look how I can't cope under any circumstances"
... I'm just doing everything in my power not to think about
Dawn French.

she isn't very good at comedy. she's constantly corpsing,
trying not to laugh.

re julie walters only being funny because she has a brummie
accent - luckily I didn't mean that then.
