Noel's House Party - Noel returns

[TheDundon]

NHP was always revolutionary. Always cleverly produced and never afraid to take risks that would get people talking. Lets not forget some of the NHP episodes we see now on youtube are nearly 20 years old now. They still don't look dated. We will never have TV like this again in this country. Truly the best.

[BossRoss999]

@TheDundon you are soooo true we will never have shows like this on tv anymore all these shitty talent and reality shows have nothing on classic shows such as this

[youlook678]

1:38 that just sounds like something out of a nightmare!

[DemonOfDeathValley91]

Have you got the full episode of this?

[greigism]

Where is that house in the title sequence? (Crinkley Bottom, I know, but seriously whre is it?)

[Mike9586]

@greigism Just being looking on the internet and found the house used was Broughton Castle in Oxfordshire.

[AidanLunn]

I hate this NHP theme tune. Far prefer the earlier one :D

[ThePrawnDude]

Mr Blobby is fucking scary. He reminds me of disease. All those yellow spots can't be a good thing.

[JamesJimmaHarding]

I'd love it if Mr Blobby made a guest appearance of Deal or no deal

[crazychicken40]

[xtoverus666]

Mr Blobby is Sick

[bad901]

i remember mr blobby i never knew what it was saying

[ripley1404]

House Party was amazing used to watch it with all the family every saturday when I was a kid good times. Nothing like this on TV anymore :(

[thedei]

I wish they wud being this back it was wicked!!!

[97channel]

Does anyone happen to have the unfortunate moment from the next week's first full return of the show, where an elaborate NTV setup involving two neighbours resulted in disaster, as a wobbly dark shot of the outside of a back door was accompanied by a soundtrack of what seemed to be almost domestic violence, where the intented victim is heard aggressively calling his partner a f****** c***? That REALLY happened, for those who didn't see it. Noel had to apologise.

[JB1601]

@97channel yeah should have this somewhere, will have a look...really bad start to the relaunch!

[narzification]

@JB1601 Did You ever find the clip mentioned by JB1601?

[ericspurge]

this is richard edward blobby pound here if don't bring in many mr blobby clips i will think of throwing a custard pie rrrrrrrrrrrrrrright in your face its boring without blobby blobby blobby blob and a by

[erikals2]

@97channel lol - wish i would have been there but i was only 4 years old and not in britain sadly

[marshalllucky]

@97channel I think that was a dream you had once, seriously though bring back noel tidybeard, we are so fed up of cowell and his botox pectorals and gorilla esque head tainting our saturday screens.We demand House party to return all those who agree vote this up;-)

[marshalllucky]

With the prospect of more dire tripe from cowell which I believe is about to bring more saturday night tedium, I cant believe the production companies aren`t queing up outside Noels house with bags of cash begging him to bring back HP. This was good decent family entertainment, so much variety and something for everyone, we are tired of seeing greedy selfish wanabees on xfactor and britain has (no) talent .Noel tidybeard your country needs you please bring back HP.

[simpleprincess3]

i wish it would come back missi it still even now dont care what channel just bring it back!!!

[CountdownCrispy]

Can anyone identify the "young chap" alluded to by Noel in this clip, who had introduced the show the week before in his absence?

[JB1601]

The previous week was a compilation show, so I think it's just a joke on Noel's part that doesn't really work (i.e. he's referring to himself)

[wibblywobbly1]

I think you will find that Noel Edmonds was assasinated by the BBC, and various other 'celebrities' who were incredibly jealous of his success. The show was an act of brilliance and the last genuinely family orientated Saturday evening show. It was on a par with Morecambe and Wise. No swearing, no political correctness twaddle, just great British humour.

[buckhysen]

@wibblywobbly1 Totally agree! This was the last great TV show on a Saturday night. It lost it's way in the last couple of series' but that was down to the BBC sticking their nose in more than anything.

[wesker100000000]

Bring it back noel.

[JannesHuizing]

i stayed home saturdays for this!

[marshalllucky]

Bring back HP it was the greatest thing on TV.

[PuddickEmma]

lmao

[CffYT]

I loved this theme tune. Can't seem to find it anywhere online. Was there a long version of it? This intro seemed a bit shorter than I remember. Anyone any vids?

[JB1601]

There was a much longer version, it was progressively chopped shorter and shorter. I'll try and get it online at some point.

[knicksfan89]

I think that's ben edwards announcing at the beginning

[ferryjammy]

YEAH

MR BLOBBYS HOUSE PARTY

[anthonywhiteman]

Noel... me and Leigh Johnston reckon that you are a horrible bearded twat... If u ever come to Consett, me and her are gunna kick your little hairy head in

[StFidjnr]

can you post noel's greatest gotcha clips please.

[dannystanley]

anyone got any full episodes of NHP??

[p0ab]

I've a couple

[dannystanley]

fancy downloading them on youtube. be fantastic that. love to see a whole epidose of NHP and i think alot of other people would aswell!!!

[kctiger19881997]

It seems the best years of NHP were the early ones, which i'm sadly too young to remember. I love the tune though, brings back so many memories.

[ChrisWales24]

Does anyone know what the theme tune is?

[JB1601]

The house in the titles was in the Guardian on Friday, subject of a piece about houses with moats. Very topical!

[97channel]

It seemed to, all of a sudden, want to be all cool and trendy and started to emulate other shows of a similar nature, notably Don't Forget Your Toothbrush.

In doing so, they lost much of what had made it unique and popular in the begining.

NHP drifted into some dark times in it's later years. Which is a shame, as it overshadows the fact that it was truely brilliant for the first 3 or 4 years.

[JB1601]

Yep - they also seemed to think that it was literally a House Party, so would employ extras to stand around in party hats at the start on the set.. Utterly ridiculous!

[97channel]

JB1601 - I know, the 'party' thing went too far. As the content would get weaker, the partying would get cranked up a notch to try and cover the fact.

But the thing about a party is that there's no joy in simply watching one.

Even worse, to be watching one where neither the 'guests' nor the 'host' appear to be genuinely enjoying the experience.

Just look at Noel's face throughout this clip. Right there is a man on the brink, if ever you did see one.

[GWaites]

I've forgotten how good this theme tune was!

[fkfj16]

I agree - good times!

[putthetellyon1]

The revamp was the death of it really. It didn't really suit him for a start.
