I think it died a while ago when the current coach, Smith and Warner took over leading the team.

Ah no, poor Jim Bowen. The finest host of any game show there ever was. Absolutely loved watching him on Bullseye. Funny man.

And what about him on Peter Kays Amarillo video. I think he must've been pissed that day.

RIP Jim.

Great memories.

Just count the number gone from this video:

Anne Kirkbride (21 June 1954 – 19 January 2015) Deirdre - Coronation Street
Rod Hull (13 August 1935 – 17 March 1999)
Keith Harris (21 September 1947 – 28 April 2015)
Jimmy Saville (31 October 1926 - 29 October 2011)
Bolton Wanderers FC
Jim Bowen (20 August 1937 - 14 March 2018)
Ronnie Corbett (4 December 1930 – 31 March 2016)
Mr Blobby
Emu
Orville
Sooty & Sweep

Pedant alert - That's actually Bernie Clifton with the ostrich. According to Wiki he's still alive. Bernie that is, I don't think the ostrich was real $:-\$

Particularly since the video was taken in 2005. If Rod hull died in 1999, he'd have done well to make that.

Brilliant

I nearly fell off the roof laughing.

Is Tony barred again or in self imposed hiding?

longballin · March 29, 2018, 10:43:42 AM

For suggesting that a victim of child sex abuse was complicit in his own abuse I hope we've heard the last of Tony..
