Look and Read - Geordie Racer 9 - Part 1

[divinedegenerate]

So they are using Geordies to teach English language?

[MinotawrTV]

Lewwwis.

[MumToRebecca]

Wow blast from the past. Used to watch this in primary schools in the 90s. Quite enjoyed it. Everyone used to get excited once the tv was wheeled into the room.

[CelticPowerRanger]

Who needs the bloke from Big Brother when you have the original. Chapter Nine, the story so far. Spuggie was with the chickens digging up the tatties.

[Jtee5893]

"Pol-us"

brilliant.

[parrotcar]

lol we used to watch this back in 1995-96 and we also watched through the dragons eye, legend of the lost keys and some other one about an alien. Was good we also had the BBC acorn PC games. Kids dont have this innocence these days, there all playing COD, GTA watching war on TV, youtube and porn and racial issues. Sad.

[UberStrawb]

[parrotcar]

@UberStrawb yeah thats teh one. :)

[LaFemmeMorte]

I think I was one of the last year groups to have watched Geordie Racer...I started primary school in '95 and I remember watching this.

[hpakigyal]

i watched it in primary toooo infact my primary was called linden primary school

[edgetiq]

I went to school with a kid called Baz Bailey he was a dick too!

[97channel]

I was casually chatting on a long train journey recently, when I glanced out the window and over-excitedly yelled "Whoa, there's that bridge... what's it called?... the one in the Geordie Racer titles!".

The faces of the other passengers showed mixed emotions. Of disbelief that I didn't know it was called the Tyne Bridge (it slipped my memory) and of kudos for having said Geordie Racer very loudly among a train full of Geordies.

I can't believe I actually did that.

[parrotcar]

@97channel lol nice one, I was on a college trip last year and we were going up to hadrians wall, anyway we went thorugh newcastle and I said wheres that bridge, but then we realised we were on that bridge. It takes you by surprise i tell ya.

[A1260T]

[messycarla]

We used to love this at school because one of the dinner staff's husband played Baz so we used to love that we knew a "celebrity..."

[kurtleics]

[RODYSQUAD]

[DeckyStrikesBack]

Look and Read was the fucking nuts

[DonskiBeat1]

This reminds me of sandpaper carpet and Mr Wilson making you sit on your hands when you were naughty!

[lukestrudwick123]

[louchy]

A nostalgia bomb just went off in my head

[nickter]

Narrator - "Why is Blue Flash so special?"

REAL Geordie - "Because he's a fucking spacker mayat"

[indiesi]

I remember being tortured with this rubbish at school. It did succeed in making kids learn to read though, you couldn't understamd a sodding thing they were saying!

[a1exxm]

this is sample tastisic

[mistofoles]

Spuggie slamMED the door, double the M, double the M! Then Spuggie got twatTED off his dad! Double the T, double the T!

[mistofoles]

Alt'hgetha now, build yasel' a wud!

[mistofoles]

Why aye and h'way, man, it's Kevin Whatley!

[mistofoles]

Ha ha! "She tripped over Plod"..unfortunately, now a common occurence in city centres!

[alandavid48]

All these Look and Read programmes were marvellous for teachers: shame about the illiterate comments of the children here- but I left My class in front of Wordy et al and had a fag in the playground. Brilliant

[DavidXNewton]

The comments here aren't that bad compared to some of the other similar videos I've put up - there's often distressing evidence that these programmes didn't really seem to help ;) Anyway, nice to know the integrity of British teachers that we didn't see when we were watching this! :)

[dubplateroots]

Wow what a flashback!!! I remember watching the whole series in primary school 20 years ago

[ashleelmb]

@dubplateroots: me too! (22 years ago for me) Crazy shit innit?

[cstockil1]

PO LEEECE !!!

[FM5KR6F2007]

god it was 14 years ago at school when i saw this. Boy am I all grown up now?

[230382ha]

wow, the naivety of kids. I was about seven when watching this. I gotta say I had absolutely no idea what I was watching. I enjoyed watching t.v. without a clue what the plot would be. That includes cartoons! I must've had NOTHING between the ears.

[rphr1987]

brings back those great memories

[RhodesLives]

I remember watching this in primary school,ggood stuff!

[pinball2k6]

same, id forgot that daft twat floating robot after it though.

the cop can cope with magic e, ha i love the spelling show, so many meanings to the above sentence

[paeturek]

They're Geordies... but Plod sounds like he went to public school in Surrey when he sings. Mental.

[paeturek]

"Tomorrow was the day of the Great North Run." Does that sentence make sense?

Thanks to programmes like this I spent my childhood looking for criminal schemes to foil. Never found any.

[pinball2k6]

yeah the sentence makes perfect sense...

[mistofoles]

"I needed a prod"?? Careful,Derek!

[mistofoles]

Is that Kevin Whatley??

[mrshef666]

aye it is

[mistofoles]

What does he mean "The story so far"?? I thought this was part 1?!

[pikehunter23]

Get in, legend !

[fraserkatie]

Wow! I remember this story! It was great!
