Dude… “… like all comics from that era, had a veneer of avuncularity draped over the sense that you were one wrong word from getting fucking lamped” This is the funniest line I’ve heard in a long time. Genuinely rewound and listened to it a dozen times. So astutely observed and hilariously phrased 👏
"Magnus Pike...with the body language of a cartoon burglar" is one of the funniest lines I've ever heard. Great video, and a lovely accompaniment to Limmy's various probes into the Dustyverse.
@savaloy666999. It's a good one but my personal favourite is Brad Pitts daughter Shiloh(pronounced Shylow) Pitt😆 Let's face it - it's not the first "shiloh" Brad has been responsible for ( his role in ' Friends' springs to mind) 😂 Excellent video btw - too many funny lines to quote 👏✌
The B side of the Ted Rogers single is called 'who done it' a song about murder mysteries. Ted gave me a copy when I went up on stage with him at a panto.
Hardly seems fair to have them reject "a Christmas tree," which is objectively a shit prize, only for Ted to turn round and reveal that the tree also came with a ton of other stuff including a chunk of fucking silver. Could've had that down to Cash Converters.
When the Brookside pair come on I could have sworn the band were playing a showbizzed up Jean Michel Jarre. Never picked up on the similarity to that part of the Brookside theme before.
3-2-1 is the greatest show TV ever! I don't actually remember it from when I was a kid (although I am just about old enough to), I first remember seeing it on Challenge TV in the 2000s and instantly fell in love with it. It is so cheesy, camp, crap, random and totally batshit crazy that you have to love it, and the riddles are the cherry on top of an already very, very sweet cake! I feel like I'm on LSD every time I watch an episode, priceless.
This always felt like a weird show. Compared to other game shows of the 80s it was completely out of its time; like a format from the 50s that somehow got made 30 years too late but became a huge hit anyway because it reminded older people of things they used to watch.
Just the three again so funny and when you watch this back now shows how naff it really was however if you have one of those dusty bins probably worth a fortune
We slate celebrity Christmas/Celebrity specials of gameshows nowadays, but 1987 special here is just awful. The prizes and the amplifier for ‘the really deaf’ reminds of a line from Karl Pilkington’s Moaning of Life book where he watched a Christmas episode of Bullseye and one of the celebrities had won a Food Blender that was going to be sent to a care home where the patients needed help chewing. Easy to forget this type of thing existed in our lifetime.
What the hell was that skeleton with a red flare for a cock? A reference to Ted Roger's red todger? Great job on this though, I laughed out loud lots of times, but particularly at "What was the point of all that then?"
Im convinced they had several song and dance troupes with nzmes like Stutz Bearcatz and Manhatten Transfer. Was that the case or was my entire Friday evening childhood a fabrication?
Those prizes weren't bad for 1980. Ford Escort and a holiday to San Francisco? The first couple going out with 210 notes? Say what you like but they had the readies to put in the pot.
I assume that every clue had an alternative solution so that the producers had complete control of what the contestants won.

Ironically, Pyke was nearly killed by a burglar a few years before he pegged it.
4:10 Anglia were looking at that tinsel with envious eyes
Love the way pausing technology has completely debunked Ted Rogers' famed finger dexterity 👍
0:40 is perhaps the best Spoonerism of all time! 😂

'A SILVER INGOT is here'. What a singularly awkward and marvellous turn of phrase.
What a singularly awkward and marvellous prize
I must get myself a pair of Cuban heels.
They were massive.
underrated channel
Very

"Like Davro's Sketch Pad written by the Zodiac Killer" Brilliant 🤣

15:20 love the extremely obscure Bottom reference 🙂
An absolute gem of a channel, thank you.
3:43 "A.T.S.! As I live and breathe!" Shout-out to the VOD crew. 😛
Four, one, one, whatever - the working title rejected by Yorkshire
What about Caroline Munro ? She was the only reason to watch this show.
i abhorred this show as a kid, but thankfully bullseye came along and salvaged something from weekend tv.
Fun fact- Ted Rogers was 24 when he first presented 3-2-1.
Only if time travel existed in the 70s

I feel like it would be very entertaining to watch, everything apart from those 'skits' which just look like utter rubbish.
I'm glad you identified that contestant as Ricky Tomlinson. I'd been wondering who invited the Yorkshire Ripper...
Hiding in plain sight was a good choice by Cyril Smith, as there was precious little he could of hid behind.
13:30 Back and to the left... Back and to the left...
Dusty Bin is literally a poor man's Mr Chips
Who else got your Emmerdale/Rik Mayall quote, complete with t’top accuracy?
I remember this and being so disappointed. I love your humour you make me laugh so much. Thank you. ❤
I was gifted a 3-2-1 mug only today. Now it's tea-2-1

Did nobody ever say to Gareth "you sure you want to go with Hunt?".
Another masterpiece, Poo-Box 🤣
"what was the point of all that?"
Made me proper laff and I woke my wife up and she was cross.
Talk about hidden UA-cam GOLD. Genuinely made me LOL on this and many other vids. Britain. You get it!
11:38 that might just be the perfect analogy! 😂😲
oh wow, concise youtube commentary on my era of tv, which basically raised me? im her for it. subscribed
"Poo box" 😂😂😂
Tres, Dos, Un surely?
Lovely stuff!
His son confirmed Ted didn't wear a piece. I think it's some heavy duty hairdressing though.
that was glorious ! thanks
Fun fact. There were 2 snorbitz. He died and they didn’t tell anyone 😂
Must have been tricky teaching the new one that act. Bet it took almost a minute.
"The really deaf!"
Ah man this video was the funniest one yet, thank you so much, amazing!

20:55 that f**king dog!
You had to be Stephen Hawking to figure out those clues..
Hearing system for the deaf? What?
It wouldn't be in 't' top field. It would be in 'top field'. It just doesn't make sense otherwise.
Oh f**k it’s Bernie Winters
I always wanted to know just what type of drugs the bods in charge of the questions were on as they were about as nonsensical as you could get.
If it was based on Un Dos Tres... shouldn't we have called it 1 2 3 ?
Well spotted 4 0 0 brilliant 😀
Im convinced they had several song and dance troupes with nzmes like Stutz Bearcatz and Manhatten Transfer. Was that the case or was my entire Friday evening childhood a fabrication?
Im assistant regional Manager. No...assistant to the regional manager

12:32 I don't think he was gay or a paedophile. I think he was the mother, with child, of one of Dr Moreau's elephant seals.
Barbara Woodhouse used to teach dodgy pet owners how to get their doggies to SHIT, sorry, I meant sit!! [Google said that was her catchphrase ]
Shouldn't the Spanish version have been Tres, Dos, Un?
Hi from Spain! Do you have all these Christmas Special 321 complete?
I don't personally, but there's plenty of them up here on other accounts if you search, even some I didn't use.
@@StuartMillard Yes I saw them but there are a few that there's no.
Please do hardwick houseXx
Always thought Ted Rogers was pretty untalented & potentially quite nasty.
