jeux sans frontieres penguin game

[draciel80]

if looks could kill they probably will

[gmaccruyff5]

I thought our "Dougie" was pretty crap in this event.

[cratercritter]

Bring back Jeux Sans Frontieres and use it to replace the Eurovision Song Contest!

[mancity1000]

@cratercritter Brilliant idea!! Total Wipeout pales compared to this. Also Stuart Hall is a absolute legend!!

[ANDYKIJK]

I've just seen this for the fifth time, just about cleared my eyes. Thankyou so much for posting this. This is what the EU should be about! Great memories.

[RichLN]

ah....another nail in the coffin of European union...

[pob3000tb]

All I can say is brilliant, they just don't make them how they used to.

[inw1967]

When interviewed recently, Stuart Hall freely admitted that this was the one challenge on JSF where he literally wet himself laughing......!

[gordinistanopolis]

If your having a bad day just listening to Stuart Hall losin it ! you cant help but laugh along . Was it spitting image that had him as a character and everytime they crossed to the puppet it would laughing uncontrolably?

[BARMYPANTS]

Heartily agree with all the comments. This clip brings back so many happy memories-from watching my parents laugh uncontrollably to the classic and unforgettable 'Muttley' laugh of the incomparable Stuart Hall. Even if there was sound and no pictures I would still be laughing. Thank you for posting nostromoau ( interesting amalgam there) and if you find any more clips please,please put them on.

[nostromoau]

I have made a longer clip of this which contains a little footage of Stuart Hall...if you go to my profile you can link to it. We cant post links in these boxes.  When I get hold of a new camera I will probably upload the exploding mice and the ostrich game.

[bongobeatbaby]

Priceless! I'd forgotten all about this one. Anyone out there got the game from 1975 with the six-part circle and the exploding mice?

[gmaccruyff5]

Thanks to that dickhead at the BBC (JOHN BIRT)who scrapped this gem in the 80s,weve missed out on years of STUART HALLS brilliance.The best oralist in history,by far.Have you heard one of his half-time summarys on Radio 5 live.?

[nostromoau]

I haven't heard that, sorry. I have received so many positive comments about this clip that I may record the ostrich game and post it when I get a new camera. It is also a real hoot.

[bragget]

JSF and Stuart Hall were made for each other.

I seem to remember the girls were used more as dolly birds in those days.

[DrCrabfingers]

I used to almost wet myself watching these games. Stuart Hall is a national treasure. I think they should re-run them on TV.

[SgtPecker]

Thank you, thank you, thank you so much for posting this. It is one of my most vivid memories of TV when I was young. I don't think I've seen this since it was first shown and I remember how Mum, Dad and I laughed til we cried. Stuart Hall's commentary was classic, that laugh! They don't make them like this anymore.

[nostromoau]

I cant post a link to the clip, but if you do a search for 'jeux sans frontieres stuart' it comes up.

[nostromoau]

I have just uploaded the whole sequence from 'here come the Belgians' so if you search the site for 'penguin game' you ought to find it.

[nostromoau]

I am going to try to make a new clip this weekend...hopefully it will be the whole thing...as much as there is on the tape, at least.

[Agip27]

They should make a show like this in the USA. Forget American Idol, Dancing with Stars and all the other B.S. This is funny as shite!

[bullmeister76]

Please, please, please Nostromoau post the whole game. This brings back such wonderful and funny memories and is one of my favourite TV clips of all time. I would dearly love to see the whole game from start to finish.

[gorlestonguy]

Brilliant! Super memories come flooding back, and Stuart was fantastic - how can anyone watch this and not have a chuckle? Thanks for sharing.

[Berci27]

Is it a video from 1974?

[latterbarrow]

the funniest thing on TV ever - Stusrt Hall, you are the best!! (and thanks for posting)

[BillericayYid]

OMG. i loved this when I was a kid. Stuart Hall made it. Have you got any more. Its tops

[BEEFYBAYONET]

More more more! God, I had to get an aspirin as I gave myself a headache laughing so much.

Stuart Hall - amazing. He's 78 this year, you know.  Doesn't look it!

[colinyung]

There has never ever been anything remotely close to being as funny as the Its a Knockout European Contests.Stuart Hall's Commentary was a match made in heaven too. To Hell with all those P.C.Nutters who would have heart failure watching 99% of the games.You all make me puke. This was FUN FUN FUN and not a complaint in sight!! We'll never see its like again thanks to the boring vegetarian non-smoking anti-hunting wankers who hold the power today. Long live free spirit!!

[ff2367]

Fantastic comment...should be running the country!!

[colinyung]

Thanx ff. Meant every word too!!

[ianpafc]

absolutely brilliant.i used to love watching this when it was on

[stig114]

Ah, happy memories you wouldn't get away with any of this in these days of Risk Assessments and Claims Direct.

[mikeohope]

How old is this please?

[nostromoau]

I believe it is from 1974

[jbob75butbetter]

This is just so good! Never fails to crack me up

[nostromoau]

Unfortunately I can only create these clips by filming the TV screen as the tape is playing with my digital camera. That is about as long as I can shoot before my memory gets filled up....sorry .

[newbigprinz]

I remember this when I was about 10 and its still as funny now. Please try and get the whole thing posted it would be much appreciated

[leebec]

Stuart Hall admitted later that during this commentary, he literally wet himself lol

[steppedonaplug]

Please post the whole thing - i'm laughing with tears in my eyes

[koolmansteven]

I loved Jeux Sans Frontieres! :hearts: I hear it's coming back next June.

[nostromoau]

The Dutch seemed to be the only ones with half a clue..hope they were playing their joker!
