    This is great - so many mistakes it reminds me of the Noel Edmonds Gotcha episode.
    Just glad Yorkshire TV persevered with the programme, despite the teething problems.

    Only the Whitley would do a toss up by flipping the coin then asking what hand is it in. Legend.

    "Let's have a toss off", "he'll knock out one of those ladies". Who knew Countdown was so filthy? And I love the way that woman refuses to smile!

    Hahaha!! This part is hilarious!
    I love how the old dear wins an almighty long and drawn out game, then immediately has to battle against another opponent! Not even a quick tea break! Lol.

    I'd imagine it still makes the original Bullseye pilot (or, perhaps, the original ATV series) look the height of intellectual programming though...

  • @mistermet-coolguyandfriend8745

    I find it completely amazing that they didn't get "Calendar"... or did they? I suppose neither contestant actually says their answer in either take, and I'm going to assume that they had to change the word in take 3 because of either something off-camera or maybe an executive decision... (if someone noticed why they actually did it please correct me)

    Since when was R a vowel?
    I'll have a consonant, please?
    O!
    COLIN is a word - the Virginian quail!
    Other proper names that are acceptable Scrabble words include BERYL, a kind of precious stone, and BETTY - not sure what that is, but I think it’s a kind of dessert - caramel apple betty!

    How enough did Ted Moult ever become a TV 'personality'?

    • @danwoodhouse9290
      @danwoodhouse9290 6 років тому +2

      Ted Moult was a farmer who was one of those quiz show contestants who ended up becoming famous - a bit like Fred Housgo and Daphne Fowler

    • @paulmason8352
      @paulmason8352 6 років тому +1

      Ted Moult was on many quizzes over the years, Celebrity Squares being one. He had a small part on The Archers on BBC Radio 4 and used to advertise Everest double glazing. He remained a farmer but in 1986 his strawberry crop failed and he took his own life.

    "Watch out for contestant Joyce Cansfield"... Well, sorry mrs Cansfield, but all my focus here lies on Christine Jones from Otley, a very pretty and obviously intelligent young woman. The fact that she doesn't keep smiling throughout the show, as they seem to do nowadays, somehow just makes her even more attractive to me. Oh, those crushes!
