Total Wipout is the biggest bag of shoit ive seen :moonie: yet i sometimes still end up watching it and thinking how great it could really be :D if that clown Richard Hammond wasn't trying to comentate on it :| and if they had someone with a bit of humour and excitement and nonsense even. Harry Hill would be good or Stuart Hall, even Terry Wogan, Ant and Dec, but Hammond is as flat and dull a presenter iver ever seen ffs, its not that i have anything against the bloke, he is just dam awful on this, and the game with a decent production and presenter could be a pretty good format.
Its A Knockout was, on the other hand, was just legendary family viewing :thumbsup: the international tournaments were amazing i loved the massive costumes and sets, and got behind GB as i nipper, as though we were in the world cup final, i used to love the show :love: and have just been killing myself laughing at these clips...... classic stuff, which producers ought to take a lesson from, so our kids can have the classic tv shows that seem to have vanished.

haha I keep saying to the kids Im gonna go on that, but then I guess I would be in the gimp sector! As well apparantly when auditioning for it, they make you do really stupid stuff acting and pretending stuff, so cant be arsed with that. Wouldnt mind having a go of the course tho:D
