excellent upload. if only we still had TVS now! I think they would have held out for an ITV company that was more in line with their way of doing things. You know, better....
I can remember when I was on Motormouth. Ah, memories. It was the 4th show in series 3. I had a pink ballon round my head. If anyone has that show, get in touch.
Do you have a full episode of the Mouse Trap segment amongst your tapes? It's hard to find anything of that online - videos and even pictures are strangely absent.
Excellent video, it's fascinating to here it all from the gallery though, with the countdowns etc! I always preferred ''Motormouth'' to ''Going Live'' & it's a shame that ''CBBC'' shows always seem to be fondly remembered, whereas not many ''CITV'' shows are! This was the 1st time the 2nd set of 1990 Stonewall ''CITV'' idents was shown btw!
I missed all of this in my childhood! It was Going Live! or nothing on a Saturday morning in our house :) Old gallery talkback always sounds like a resuscitation unit!
Its first couple of series were ropey, primarily because it found it hard to move beyond the shadow of No. 73 however S3 and S4 were brilliant, and it was far better that Going Live particularly in S4. I always felt GL was made by the numbers while MM felt like the people on the show really did give a damn whether you thought it was good. Better guests, more diverse music etc.
I was really dissapointed with Motormouth, it seemed no where near as good as No 73, and I missed No 73. In fact Motormouth just seemed to be pretty mediocre imo.
Motormouth is still good for the nostalgia factor though.
97channel, your right mate. Most remembered nostalgia is from surviving companies who profit from the remembrance, or american import dross.
Uk nostalgia is not remembered well at all.And our attempts to remember are often tainte from the import trash. Computer/games have the same problem, so do magazines and comics.
Who remembers commando comic, or has even heard of it in the young generation ? . anyway.
Also, this is only 22 YEARS OLD!!! Wow!

I really wish there were full episodes of this show out there. It's pretty much all in the ether now though.

This sounds like the legendary Hamish Hamilton. Is it? Andy Crane is the name of the presenter in the cap...

Not enough people have ever shared my enthusiasm for Motormouth.
Popular nostalgia completly ignores that it ever existed, which is a real discredit.
Oh, and if anyone reading this has got an edition of MouseTrap lurking around, you'd become one of my all-time heros if you posted it to YouTube!

Surely it should be Southampton Presentation confirming to Studio 2 Maidstone that it's 2'00" to on air, and not the other way around?
On air will have been 09.25.00
No more talking in the gallery!
