I have been looking for this show to rewatch for years! It was on TH-cam before but got taken down so thank you!!! (I literally check on here every few months on off chance someone has it. So excited)
Thank you! I had been looking around for it too, but I remembered I had an extremely low-res version of it! The show has some bizarre twists, but I love the era and its links to Dawson's Creek ❤
I love this show it's actually better than the book!! I worked as a GPO Telephonist, I knew "S-you pervisors" just like Annie Armitage and Dolly Wobbles Marriot!
Great to see a throwback to my childhood once again , had me laughing out loud throughout , miss them all , thankyou so much for taking the trouble to post it as it means a lot to me & I'll bet many others too 🎉
I've only just discovered this for the first time. Excellent entertainment. Hat's off to Clive to achieve so much in a short time, with the help of a succession of excellent trainers. Passing the driving test in a week was no mean achievement either. Sobering to watch late greats and legends, like Moss, Senna, Hunt and my hero Barry Sheene, who were so prominent in my youth .
"I think I would have qualified higher up if I'd not been given so much advice". Classic! There were some other brilliant nuggets from the racing driver's handbook of "rationalizations".
Loved Clive James' dry and sarcastic wit. Almost bumped into Stirling at the Goodwood Revival. I turned around and almost knocked him over. He didn't acknowledge me. Why would he. Awesome to see him though in some of his last races.
Very very sadly missed, I loved his book and his wit. I recall a tale about 6 four year olds tethered together on home made go carts. Clive was at the tail whip end, hilarious
I was born in 1977. Clive James TV show about the news (on BBC or HTV I think) was one of my favorite shoes. Between him and Fry and Laurie, my sense of humor was formed. I always found Clive James voice very soothing. Excellent video.
PLEASE block this show - the "players & host" of this show are so STUPID by handling evidence with thier bare hands - which would obscure any fingerprints of any "murderers" that may have done the crime !?
4:24 ... " I will handle the pen with my BARE HANDS " .. to keep it , for later to scan it for any fingerprints ( that might lead to the killer ) Have I mentioned - that THESE women are stupid - for handling EVIDENCE with their BARE hands - obscruing any evidence that was there - with their newly handled fingers !?
STAGE 1 - ( put everything in a ziploc bag - so any further handling will NOT get the suspects fingerprints smudged ... OR ... covered by your own fingerprints ! ) ... HOW stupid are THESE women !?
4:16 .. ." After i pick up the coffee cup & cover it with MY fingerprints ... we will send it on to get any fingerprints off of it " ... ( but you touched it with your fingers - & smudged the rest of the finger prints - so the ONLY fingerprints ( they ) wil come up with are the " hosts" ( god how DUMB CAN YOU BE - HANDLING A COFFEE CUIP WITH THE MURDERS FINGERPRINTYS - BY HANDLING IT YOURSELF ) ... NOW - do you understand why I think the WOMEN are super DUMB !?
4:15 ... GOD women are dumb !? ... " we will toss the coffee out - but keep the coffee cup to look for evidence . " ... ( why not think about the coffee being poisoned !? .. .BEFORE you throw away the coffee ? )
3:38 ... HAND-written note from trash can .. " I do not know who wrote this " ... ( yes you do - there are only 3 people working in the office ) - why can't you compare the handwritting with the employees notes on their individual desks !?
3:30 ... GOD WOMEN are dumb ... " where would you hide a piece of trash - that you didn't want anybody to find ?" ... 'in the ONLY trash can in the WHOLE office ! ' ... IF you didn't want anybody to FIND IT - why would you put it in the ONLY trash can in the whole office - instead of BURNING IT !?
3:16 ... " can't smudge fingerprints from a dounut - so it's OK to touch with my bare hands " .. ( UNLESS the dounut was poisoned & you just spread the poison onto your hands by handling it - with your bare hands )
Only 9+ minutes in but I can tell you that no one, except perhaps, the reported dead, have flu; if you’ve got it you are really ill, feverish, bed-ridden and can hardly even move. They’ve got heavy colds. 🤧🥴🤢🤮
Just saw the girls on their picnic drinking their flask tea using plastic cups. I remember we used the unbreakable plastic picnic ware which had a horrible smell 🥴 until melamine ware was invented 😀
I used to love this show. Watched it when it first aired in the UK. I was 15. Such great time.

I think this was my favorite episode
This show was fun thanks for uploading it
‘87 Adelaide GP … was there … Berger driving Ferrari was the winner from memory
Great acting from Amy Marston (Sylvia)

obsessed with miss armitage slapping the scammer
Always loved Clive James “I had a swim this year” 😂😂
Clive so funny. Still
To be held aloft by Alan Jones and Stirling Moss yes Clive you had made it R.I.P
Thanks for posting this. I have not seen it since it was first aired. RIP Clive

Absolutely fucking hilarious. Clive... so missed by everyone but especially TV.
Poor old Clive. Everything he said was calculated to extract pity from the viewer. Journalism, eh? He would have loved it.
Adelaide 1987. Nice sunnies Ms Green!

Don’t forget Diana Redmon
Brilliant . I had forgotten how much i liked clives programs
More than any other, single human, Clive James got me hooked on Formula One back in the 1980's. R.I.P.. ☮
Clive James, such a funny man. Loved his Unreliable Memoirs.
"I think I would have qualified higher up if I'd not been given so much advice". Classic! There were some other brilliant nuggets from the racing driver's handbook of "rationalizations".
Aww... good old Clive. He was amazing. Legend.
Loved Clive James' dry and sarcastic wit. Almost bumped into Stirling at the Goodwood Revival. I turned around and almost knocked him over. He didn't acknowledge me. Why would he. Awesome to see him though in some of his last races.
A great piece of work...I love Clive's command of English and his distinct style of story telling.
His narration of the FIA 1982 World Championship wrap up video is outstanding.
Very very sadly missed, I loved his book and his wit. I recall a tale about 6 four year olds tethered together on home made go carts. Clive was at the tail whip end, hilarious
This was broadcast in 1988 if anyone was wondering.
I was. Thanks. 🤗
I was.
I was too.
As an Appalachian American, I'd never experienced Clive. He's definitely a character. Love this
His book, "Unreliable Memoirs" is an excellent read.
Thanks so much for the upload! Clive James was one of the wittiest people on this earth. Miss you mate! 👍

Clive James was very witty. Stirling Moss ever the ladies' man, chatting up Miss Australia, shirtless! Great vid.
Brilliant
Clive James was a great character. 👍. Great upload.

IF you don't like my ( obvious ) statements - STOP recommending me to watch a "good show" ... full of IN-COMPETENT people !!
STAGE 1 - ( put everything in a ziploc bag - so any further handling will NOT get the suspects fingerprints smudged ... OR ... covered by your own fingerprints ! ) ... HOW stupid are THESE women !?

NOW - do you understand why I think the WOMEN are super DUMB !?
IF you don't like my comments ... STOP recommending this in my "recommended list" !!
Jesus - the WOMAN host & the WOMAN "investigator" are sooo stupid - it drives me nuts !!
