I liked that one a lot too. So many shows could do with a bit more flogging. - jc

[Sidders]

Crystal Maze was quality. Why did they stop making it?

That Wanted program sounds like one of the games they used to play on Noel's House Party.

[ASG]

Which one? Gotcha?

[Sidders]

No I think it was called number cruncher or something. I can't remember the game exactly but they planted a phone box in a random location, and you had to go and find it to play the game.

[ASG]

Oh yeah, I remember, in a blur of yellow spots on pink bodies!

[Chris]

Wanted was the one. Class show, wish Channel 4 brought it back. - jc

Do you remember that Blonde lispy one who was one of the 'chasers' (whatever they were called) - I saw him a couple of years ago working one of the big-screen cameras at the NEC. That's job progression for you ...

[Chief Erf]

i can do a really good impression of the presenter of crystal maze

[Sidders]

Which one? Richard O'Brien or Ed Tudor-Pole.

[Chief Erf]

the bald one

[Sidders]

Richard O'Brien.

[Gigglyboots]

They still show them all on Challenge tv, hehe.

[Sidders]

Richard O'Brien was the best. He was so funny!

[Chief Erf]

yeah he suddenly played his harmonca and did starnge dances, whilst people wrere drowning

[Chief Erf]

three mistakes, this forum should have a speelchecrer

[Gigglyboots]

*smells the irony*

Ah sooo, it doesn't need one or a lot of slang won't work okaly dokaly?!

[Chief Erf]

well i need one

[David]

Wanted was an absoultly fantastic show - with all the satalite tracking and what not. It was such a pity when they didnt give it another series

[jc]

Hah, Dad met Richard O'Brien at the pub around the corner when O'Brien was having a Rocky Horror aftershow party there. How's that for a claim to fame? (Chris Harris need not reply.) - jc

[Gaspode_The_Wonder_Dog]

am i going to have to gazump you with my noel edmunds/ chris de burgh trip again.....

[Jonny Hoare]

Aaaaahh whilst we're on the subject of great tv programme destined to spend an eternity being repeated on digital telly.


Interceptor- Bloke with laser gun flies about in a black helicopter trying to shoot 2 back packs on two people, whilst being given advie from annabel croft......

Wanted- Of the same ilk, only presented by richard littlejohn. Shame

Run The Gauntlet - You know Judge John Deed, the bloke who plays him used to host this show which had quad bike races, assualt courses and the like. Holland vs Britain Vs USA Vs Australasia, and we'd win or the yanks. But never the dutch. In latter series Mr Morgan from hollioakes got involved.

Superchamps - Like Run the Gauntlet but for kids, and england scotland and wales and scotland. England always won, and was hosted by 6 music's gary crowley

and the Crystal Maze.................one thing that has to be said



"toooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo the crystal dooooooooooooooommmmmmmmmmmmmmme"

[Chief Erf]

Did anyone else have the crystal maze board game, with real gold and silver tokens and realistic plastic crystals, I did.

[bob_fleming]

The best rock profile was theone about elton john, when he just throws a whobbler and keeps saying "my partner david furnish"

and the one where they inter view the chemical and they are going on about playing ghostbusters at creamfields!!!


they should bring it back!!

cheers

Loving the show and knowing the floor manager I was able to attend part of the filming of the Charity special one (Rock the blind) a very funny day indeed.

[Jonny Hoare]

Sadly with the demise of Uk Play, Play Uk, Eddie Nock's warm and friendly moments with Vern and Joe, sadly go to heaven aswell. Aaah

[Eddie]

I left Play UK over a year before it ended. Back in the day when its demise was pure specualtion and rumor. Infact I was only at Play Uk for about half a year before moving to BBC 2 then Radio 1 and choice.......so there! ha ha..how childish!
