It's A Knock Out

[Heather74]

I've searched to see if this programme has been posted about before, and cant find anything???

I loved it as a small child, we would sit down as a family to watch it, I remember thinking it was great fun,what kid wouldn't want to play all those games and play with all that water? For some reason I was always fascinated with the big tubes they had to fill up with coloured water at the end.

I'm sure I may have posted on this before, but cant find anything so sorry In advance.

yeah enjoyed this as a kid Huggie, i prefered when it was just british towns & cities in it, i never liked it when they went continental, stuart hall & eddie waring are legends imo

Re: It's A Knock Out

Yes I thought it was all good clean fun too (how could it be anything else with all that foam and water about *lol* )

VERY best thing about it though was it kept all my five kids in one place - and relatively quiet - for a whole hour !!!

With you though Rugga - best before going Continental

What used to make me laugh the most was Stuart Hall in hysterics while trying to commontate.

Thought the British-only heats were pretty rubbish, but the full-on European version Jeux Sans Frontieres was compulsive viewing. I can still picture the UK penguin, unable to stand up and knocking all the others over, while the presenters p'eed themselves laughing!

Re: It's A Knock Out

I liked to watch the pillow fights where you would land up in the pool if your apponent knocked you off the plank

The european countries normally the Swiss or Germans came first,I found the Belgians always came last

TV Trivia question for you - what was the only British Team/Town/City to win the whole series of Jeux Sans Frontieres?
