I grew up in Sheffield and as a child, if we ever saw a boat in someone's driveway then we'd say that they'd obviously been on Bullseye.
There's a boat builder on an industrial estate near Skipton, about 70 miles from the sea. Less stupidly there's a barge builder on the canal still.
I've a friend from University that has a teeny tiny boat with the most engine he could find. Pretty sure it has more hp per foot than you will ever see. Daft sod.
When you open it up it heads skywards like a breaching orka and then just skittles its way on the top of whatever blue wobbly bit it finds.
I've been to Sheffield. You can't have seen many speedboats.
the bullseye winners pray for a flood, they wanted a car
This comment is gold! Well done Peter Pan.
There's a special shade of grey that has only ever been used for Jim's suits and Soviet apartment buildings.
Comment of the week! 🤣
Jim - What do you do for a living?
Contestant - I'm unemployed Jim
Jim - Smashing!
what were you made unemployed from?
School at 13.
Smashing.
Oh Jim. What a legend
Back then, it was the only working class TV show, normal working people, everything else was very middle class, but with Bullseye, it was people like you saw every day, worked alongside, and Jim talked to them like a friend, not talked down to them, Jim wanted them to be the stars, encouraged them to tell their little anecdotes , wonderful show, doubt we'll ever see a show like it again
My Dad was on Bullseye when I was 6, now I'm 42 and the episode still repeats on challenge TV. The Bendy Bully disintegrated, but we still have the tankard.
The tankard was probably the best prize on the show, at least the longest lasting.
Fair play to your old man, at least he doesn't have to dispose with an old caravan, or mouldy speedboat.
All the best, geezer. 😀
Great, smashing, super.
Love somebody from Canada enjoying something so British from our childhoods. This was from an age where the host was the star and the contestants weren’t fame hungry show offs, just normal people, no sob stories and nobody looking to break in to showbiz.
When I was a student I worked as a night porter at a local hotel. Had to take Jim Bowen an early breakfast . Seeing him in his Y fronts smoking a woodbine and coughing his guts up at 5am is not a sight I'll ever forget ! Good tipper though !😂😂
Bullseye had a sizeable student following, in 1992 Jim Bowen was actually invited to speak at the Oxford Union.
I think it's brilliant that such a niche piece of British culture is a part of your life story!
Bullseye was peak UK Sunday tea time telly. RIP Jim Bowen and Tony Green
Tony Green, the Scorer on Bullseye died recently, as well as Bullseye he was a commentator for the World Darts Championships from 1978 to 2016
Yes, died in March at the age of 85. Always tried to reassure the non-dart player and encourage the second one to "Think about what you need".
Every time I hear someone belch loudly in a supermarket, I always shout 'IIIIINNN ONE!!" 🤣
" iiiiiiiiin two, a life-time supply of Blu-Tac"
Jim Bowen: "Contestant number one, what's your name and where'd you come from?"
Contestant No1: "Hello Jim. My name's Phil and I'm a miner from Northampton, but I was made redundant 2 years ago."
Jim Bowen: "That's super Phil. Smashing, lovely stuff!"
That actually happened.
Was Jim Bowen doing his best Cilla Black impression?
I recall Jim himself telling that story, and he said the contestant Phil replied "****"!
Ex-miner.
I remember the Robot toys and wanted one so bad when I was a kid!
One of my favourite Jim phrases was when a contestant was answering and they'd say 'is it Shakespeare?' And he'd say 'are you asking me or telling me?'
Who needs a car when you can have a bendy Bully. Great, super, smashing.
Jim Bowen was a total legend. So British he lived in a disused railway station that was converted to a house.
I loved it when someone threw 3 darts for charity and they doubled it up.
“ That’s £14 to your favourite charity “.
Or two contestants who lived in different towns could win the top prize - a three piece suite!
That show was famous . Win a speed boat while you live in a city tower block
A "Bullseye" appearance lead to a Pembrokeshire serial killer being caught years later.
John Cooper, who appeared on the show in May 1989
I was just going to mention the serial killer contestant.
I was going to mention that!! He had previously won 90 grand on a "Spot the ball" competition 😢😢😢
I never really liked the Dave Spikey version. Or the specials with Alan Carr, which just mocked the format. There’s a rumour afoot that this is coming back. It’s going to be hosted by Paddy McGuinness so I’m not hopeful it’ll be any good.
The landlord of my grandads local pub was on this and always kept his Bendy Bully on a shelf behind the bar. A work colleague of mine knew someone who got to the final round. The big doors that the start prize came through led out to the car park. They decided not to gamble on the star prize because they didn’t want it. They already figured out it was going to be a camper van because when they arrived at the studio they saw it parked outside!
@@GrilloTheFlightless I never saw any of the other versions, not sure I want to either, but loved the original growing up in the 80's and 90's. TV was just better back then, and no snowflakes to ruin a bit o0f fun.
"Have you ever shown your boyfriend your ditties?" 😂😂😂 I'm sorry, but that's funnier than anything on TV today I actually laughed out loud.
Followed up by " Or do you keep them close to your chest " :)
If you can find it (on a podcast I think), there is a hilarious story about two Irish men who appeared on the show. They finished last on the first round, and not thinking they were going to be on again literally drank the complementary bar dry. As it was the other two teams decided to stick with what they won, and yep the Irish blokes were asked to return even though they couldn't stand up straight. Story just gets funnier in the production team trying to get them sober so they can continue.
It's on Jim Bowen's stand-up routine about Bullseye, which is on youtube somewhere.
@@MrDannyDetail That'll be where I've heard/seen it then
Favourite Jim Bowen moment...
Jim: In Greek mythology, what was the food of the gods?
Contestant: Was it grapes?
Jim: Good guess, but it was Ambrosia... You'd think the gods would 'ave summat better to eat than rice pudding, wouldn't ya?
One of your best videos! What memories of Sunday early evenings this provoked! Sadly, it also meant another week of school was staring us in the face.
The list of names on the Wikipedia page are the professional/ semi professional dart players who were part of the 'Winning for Charity' feature, they had to throw three darts and whatever the score was, the professional darts player won that amount in cash for the winning contestants chosen charity.
You'll like Peter Kay's bullseye bit from his stand up
She will have already seen it. She repeats a lot of his jokes in this video
I came here to comment this as well.
Jim did his stand up at my local bingo hall. My mum and nan took me to see him as we all loved Bully.
It was the most pornographic comedy set I've ever heard, even today. To a room full of blue rinse.
My mum and nan were stunned, shocked, and open mouthed all the way home.
Ha Ha Ha:)
Was the same with the likes of Jim Davidson and Mike Reid (Eastenders Frank Butcher) They were all on family entertainment shows but made thier living on the standup circuit with really explicit sets.
It worked because the only way to see their 'blue' stuff was on VHS or Live. Both were 18s only so to youngsters they just presented a gameshow about Darts or Snooker or played Frank Butcher on tele.
@@TrickyDicky2006 I saw Jim Davidson in The Duncow Pub off The Old Kent Road around 45 years ago:)
In a bad or good way?
@@Isleofskye The gentleman here is Jim Bowen, dear.
Tbf watching this it’s a good representation of working class Britain. As a kid all the adults looked like this!
I haven't lived in the UK for 25 years. Was well happy when I went back last year and this was on the telly. Having to watch what you could have one is priceless.
When I was younger I didn't get the concept of the ITV regions which Jim would refer to till a few years later. So you'd have Central, Granada, Anglia, Tyne Tees etc. I remember been gutted when it was cancelled. Tony Green the scorer died just a couple of weeks ago. Jim was also on Radio Lancashire.
Thanks for this and your reaction. The HILARIOUS thing about this show was telling the Downhearted, Despondent and Disappointed contestants "This is what you WOULD have won" just to give them a kick when they were already down. lol NOW WATCH that "LAME" clip again, very SLOWLY, and that was hysterical with lines like "The Wife ?" "JUST a Housewife" as they, quickly, dismiss her and move on...there was gem after gem there "Keep them close to your chest" after the "ditties" comment, and the second woman hinted that there were other "things" should no longer do with a screw in her knee which is why Jim said, "You'll get us taken off the air"...
I watched this most Sundays with the family, but most of all I remember watching it at my grandparents' house in the late 80s/early 90s. Because of that, I associate the show with the 3 smells that dominated that house: Rothman's cigarettes, pâté and buttered crumpets. Thanks for bringing back some memories of beloved people in a smelly house.
I spoke to Jim a few times in 2003/2004. I sold him a laptop that he wanted to use for writing his memoir. I hope he completed and published his book. Best wishes to his family and thanks for the video. This brings back memories.
Looking on Amazon, I can only find a book from 1998. Any info from viewers would be appreciated.
When you said “you can do it mate” was the best English accent you’ve ever uttered. 🎉
It'll sound better when she finally picks up a Kent dialect, it's not really English if you don't have an accent related to a place, not just a nation.
@@FormulaProg It is a generic English accent then, usually most people at least have a hint of their local accent even if they sound generic.
@@HalfdeadRider I would call that an internet accent. It's not localised it's generic and quite sad actually.
@@FormulaProg weird way to think, she was just imitating a generic English accent and doing pretty well in the fly imo.
I was talking in general as in English people who seem to not have an accent. An "Internet accent" is not a thing, but we do get Americanisms mainly due to the Internet, I hate those, even more so when I find myself using them.
@@HalfdeadRider I said the way I think of it is an internet accent, Americanised is true but there's only a British internet accent that's just vague and dull. For American accents that is having the same affect in the states, you'll find less and less southern accents in the south because of kids who spend all day only Interacting with people online and the same for new England etc. I'm sure you've heard the accent I am talking about the "like, whatever" slurring of words accent with internet slang like fr and bruh thrown in. In the UK we have or had a ridiculous amount of distinguishable accents, each unique to not just people but culture and local traditions. That's something that's rapidly dying in society due to the internet, lack of real social mixing and immigration. You're fine to think it's just how people sound so who cares, I totally get that. But I find it sad and maybe it's because I'm born in Liverpool lived in Yorkshire for 20 years that my families accents are all common and broad as they come, but to us, they mean something. I can say things that only local folk understand and it's why we used to get along better before the web.
Great stuff. Your grasp of British culture is spot on. Lovely to see someone catch the nuances of this classic show.
Thanks Alana , what a great laugh that was ! It was a terrible programme in it's day but a touch of nostalgia .
Jim Bowen was on the comedians which aired in the 70's .
One of those people who could make you laugh without doing anything !
Im sure Peter Kaye's comedy routine introduced a new generation to Bullseye.
Just recently discovered your channel today and I see you've been in the UK around 9yrs or so. Obviously I haven't seen every video, but it's good to see you have been engrossing yourself in British culture and willing to learn about it in any way you can. Great stuff.
Great Smashing Super!
I still watch Bullseye most evenings. 11PM on Challenge! I'm dying to win that nest of tables and crystal glasswear set.
😂
@@AdventuresAndNaps I like it when he interviews people and they are so boring. "So Dave, it says here you're a welder from Norwich, and you like to watch banger racing?"
The fact they feel they have to put it on as late as 11pm as though it’s strict adult viewing shows how ridiculous this country has gone with censorship. Just like with the lengthy lockdowns those on authority here take everything too far
@@cultfiction3865 it’s nothing to do with censorship, it’s because it’s a 40 year old game show! What time should a repeat of a 40 year old game show be on? There’s nothing to censor…
@@ShaunLevett I’m thinking more of the innuendo in his jokes and non PC jokes about contestants weight etc. Nothing bad about it but TV has gone too PC these days and they seem to censor things that don’t fit that narrative. For example Roald Dahl books. They are old and written for kids, yet recently there was an initiative in this country to alter some of his language since they didn’t think it was PC enough.
loved watching bullseye as a kid in the eighties, your reaction was adorable, thank you for bring the memories back.
I have "binge watched" this after seeing your UK/USA chocolate taste test video. Both were good but this Bullseye episode was tremendous. I love the way you love some VERY British things...!
It is impossible to watch one of your videos without smiling.
Watching old episodes of Bullseye is great, especially the price board section. In 1, a twin tub washing machine, in 2, a portable colour TV....
Prize, not price.
If you’re looking for things in a similar vein, I can heartily recommend Big Break. It’s a very similar premise to Bullseye, only it was snooker and on the BBC. The presenter, Jim Davidson, has since shown that he has pretty much ever prejudice under the sun, but that came to light after the show went away, so I just go back to that childhood zone of blissful ignorance when I see old episodes. Both Big Break and Bullseye are right up there with the likes of Countdown, Catchphrase and Wipeout (a daytime game show) for me when it comes to classic game shows and 90’s nostalgia.
Erm, no. Jim Davidson was well known as a risque comic years before Big Break. In fact that was pretty much in his twilight years.
Blockbusters was another!
Over the years I’ve met countless celebrities, but back in 1992, I was lucky enough to meet Jim Bowen. What an absolute gentleman. He was so nice and genuinely loved people. We had a really nice chat and it’s one of my fondest memories R.I.P. Jim “BFH Bus Fair Home” Bowen. Love the channel and much respect.
Jim Bowen was a teacher before going into comedy.
Absolutely love you. Ur enthusiasm is infectious. It's so good to see a foreigner show love to our country instead of the millions of haters of the UK
13:54 and 21:10 - Admit it, Alanna - the British sense of humour in the comments is also a huge part of the charm and what you love about being part of this country now!
I hope it's also something that you enjoy with, and from, your partner, too.
I'm glad they made so many episodes. It's still fun to watch - especially the second half.
They used to switch the prizes around if the contestants were unpleasant.
It's in Sid Waddel's book
More like this please.
Bullseye, use to watch this back in the early 90s, like at the Pub, as the land lady loved it, which meant we punters had to watch it no matter if the football was on or not.
When I was growing up in the '80s, prizes on British game-shows were things that money could buy. At some point, that changed, and now the prizes are money. You can no longer win a car or a holiday (and not even a boat or a caravan); now you win cash. I don't know whether or not the prizes back then were donated to the shows as a form of advertising them, or bought by the production company to give away, but cash prizes that don't typically exceed a few thousand pounds are probably more convenient to transact and less of a drain on the budget. It felt more exciting when, if you could Play Your Cards Right, you would win an Austin Maestro; now, if you get some Pointless answers, you will win enough money to buy a share in a moped.
The age old question, how do you split the prizes 😂 I loved watching Bullseye back in the day and still watch the reruns now.
Thank goodness for you. I will die happy for the knowledge you’ve given me. 😅
Do you know, your stuff is getting better and better. Your upbeat and enthusiastic presentation is captivating 😀
I can not tell you how much I love your love of Bullseye. Just fantastic. Cracking video this 💙👊🏽🎯
Alanna, your justified amusement at these clips has just brightened my morning.
Thanks so much, watching you watching them is even more hilarious than the show itself.
8:32 We had those pans when I was a kid. (I think one of the best things about Bullseye is if you're British and 40+ you're almost guaranteed to have owned at least one of the prize board prizes in any given series. The nostalgia is built-in.)
I used to love Bullseye in the 80s. What is incredible now is how old the contestants look, given most were in their 20s and 30s! And also how naff so many things were back then - car design, "designer" homeware etc. Great show!
They couldn't afford Capris 🙂
If you like Bullseye, you should watch 3-2-1 with Ted Rogers (specifically the final clues).
Dusty Bin!!!
I always get them two confused and I’m like why ain’t Jim doing the 321 thing with his fingers? 😂
Or strike it lucky. Barrymore was so good with the contestants.
If you like Bullseye. You should try to find the "The Golden Shot" which used to be prime Sunday early evening telly. It was another program whose prizes were a bit ridiculous. Hosted by Bob Monkhouse, Norman Vaughn and then Charlie Williams. The premise was firing a crossbow at an Apple whilst being guided by somebody else.
Bernie the Bolt.
Oooh i think this can be a new segment on your channel , Reacting / dissecting British TV shows :)
This is the absolutely peak of entertainment. It's so naff it swings all the way around into being fantastic and Jim Bowen was a national treasure.
The thing I remember about this show is the daftly inappropriate prizes people used to win, e.g., a motor boat and trailer won by an aquaphobic person living in a small flat on the tenth floor, miles away from any kind of water, without a garage, garden or car park to keep it!
Jim: Smashing! Great! Super! Just what you always wanted?
Despondent contestant: Yep.
My abiding memory of Bullseye was the eighties trope of showing large quantities (in terms of number of notes, not the denomination) of cash, here sticking it in pewter tankards. The sitcom Bread had a set piece of all the Boswells paying cash onto a collection plate before meals. And, of course, Harry Enfield's loadsamoney character.
Those speedboats they often used as prizes... anyone suspect that one of the producers used to have a sideline owning a speedboat business that went under and he had a storage unit full of them that he was desperate to get rid of? I mean how much use would the average contestant have for one unless they lived on Lake Windermere?
You mean on the banks of Lake Windermere.
"We only own motorbikes, Jim". I've got a Bonneville - it's got some poke but it won't pull a trailer.
Great video Alanna! Used to love watching Bullseye back in the day.
Jim Bowen ...the late Jim Bowen ...a legend -Bullseye was so cheesy good. Loved Bullseye and loved Jim Bowen's quick witty jokes and sayings. classics such as "Great super smashing" come and have a look at whay you would of won...oh the speedboat!!. "Stay out of the black and in the red you get nothing for two in the bed!!. "You've been a smashing couple...give my regards to the lads from East Fife"...Super smashing couple. "Thanks for joining us...see you next week...you can't bit a bit of bully!!!. 🤣loved the 80s and loved Jim Bowen..
Have you ever seen Phoenix nights? Jim Bowen was in an episode of that.
Phoenix Nights is the funniest thing I have ever seen on TV, and ever will.
"Family Fun Day" was a masterpiece. Peter Kay and Dave Spikey hit the Bull's Eye with it.
Probably the best show ever made, there is nothing more British than Bully!
To put the cash prizes into perspective, when Bullseye first aired in 1981 my basic wage as a bus driver was about £50, so even £200 split between two losing contestants was well worth having!
I met Jim Bowen once in the mid 1980s as a (late) teenager and was unbelievably rude to him, just trying to be a clever sod. Decades later, it's one of those things that torment me at 3.am.
This was a (super, smashin') great show. The jus-before-bathtime Sunday night show before school the next day growing up. Tony (announcer) died just last month.
I remember this well, Sunday tea time , back to school tomorrow
Bo'Selecta used to do an impression of Scary Spice/Mel B that was basically Jim Bowen in a curly wig.
Loved this reaction. More Bullseye reactions please!
Awe that last couple we're so happy
Smashing great 😅
Alanna, please tell that there is a online version of Bullseye somewhere that we can play on Twitch stream one night, that would be absolutely hilarious particularly if you set the prizes. "In one, a missing bit of Lego that's just been found on the floor " "In two, an inflatable palm tree that has a leak in it." "And tonight's star prize, a leftover slice of Butlers Pizza". 😁😁😁
That car looked like Mr. Weasley's flying car!!!!
i used to watch this at my grandmothers on a sunday evening , me and my uncle wold have our own sayings lol , brings back a lot of memories thank you for sharing
I'm not even sure why this turned up in my recommended but I loved it. I really appreciate the personal story of what it meant to you, but also the dive and semi-educational angle you tried to take on it too for other non-UK viewers who might not understand. It's Hilarious that this was your cultural looking glass into Britain, you could do a lot worse than Bullseye though. I remember watching it as a kid, not really understanding it, but those prizes, I always wanted the robot.
I spent a couple of years in the 90s in Canada as a kid (Manatoba), so I've always got a soft spot for Candians :D and I'm so happy to have stumbled across your channel.
Very entertaining reactions as always! Bullseye brings back lots of memories growing-up in the 1980s, along with a plethora of comedy sketch programmes and other gameshows. Great days growing up.
Who else is noticing Alanna's accent becoming more British-Canadian over each Adventures and Naps episode!
Great channel .'Bullseye' British comedian Peter Kay grew up with these shows and often poked fun at them in his observational way. It is interesting as you see them today with the changes of society fashion etc. Often Peter Kay using that time warp and changes as fuel for his comedy.😎 Many years later I believe Peter Kay in 'Phoenix Nights' actually brought in the host of this show in act in his comedy show.
😂😂 I needed a laugh. I never found it funny before. Please continue 😊
The natural successor to 3-2-1 (with Ted Rogers) which was well known for "clues" that were so incomprehensible you'd have more chance of getting the right answer by flipping to a random page of the Encyclopedia Britannica.
That was brilliant.. crying with laughter here 😂😂😂
Bullseye was the thing to watch on Sunday afternoons! It was more fun than any other sports show, especially to 8-year old me. Watching it now, I could almost taste the Scampi-flavoured fries and smell the stale bitter being served up next to pub dart boards in the 80s. It's absolutely of its time - yes, it has aged (haven't we all?) but it's like an old blanket that is still comfortable and useable after so long. So glad to see you watching it and enjoying it, Alanna!
I still love to watching Bullseye from time to time, people from my generation X/Millennial grew up watching this and some other awesome Saturday night shows.
Try Big Break with Jim Davidson "I'm famed for my aim so you better put up a real good fight, I'm gonna be snookering you tonight".
You have to check out Grange Hill.... Starting at the beginning with Tucker Jenkins..
We miss you Danny Kendall 😢
No kidding, when I first saw this video, I was hoping the fashion spree prize would be in it 😂
Darts on tv aren't really a thing here in Canada. I think the sports channels aired darts as a time filler when they didn't have live sports.
The HILARIOUS thing about this show was telling the Downhearted, Despondent and Disappointed contestants "This is what you WOULD have won" just to give them a kick when they were already down. lol NOW WATCH that "LAME" clip again, very SLOWLY, and that was hysterical with lines like "The Wife ?" "JUST a Housewife" as they, quickly, dismiss her and move on...there was gem after gem there "Keep them close to your chest" after the "ditties" comment, and the second woman hinted that there were other "things" should no longer do with a screw in her knee which is why Jim said, "You'll get us taken off the air"...
Many fond memories of bullseye on a Sunday night, before my bath. Jim was s legend and the prizes were hilarious. Can't ask much more than that. Check out Peter Kaye's impressions of Jim and bullseye. Bloody hilarious!
A most apt subject matter after I sent my son via WhatsApp a photo going around showing a UK car towing both a small speedboat and a caravan in tandem. The joke, he must have won Bullseye twice. My son hadn't a clue, so I sent your video to him to explain the joke 😊
I still watch Bullseye on Challenge TV every once in while. I used to watch it all the time when I was younger. Great show.
I love that shaking your fist slightly in excitement is considered as being “too excited” by British standards 😛
…but as a Brit I can agree that he showed way too much excitement..
Are thanks for that allana, taking me back to simpler times Sunday evenings and bullseye. look at what you could of won. 😂
Great, smashing, super ! and heres what you could of won ! when they lost. And Tony Greens slacks (trousers/strides !)
I loved watching Bullseye as a kid with the family. As others have mentioned, you should check out Peter Kay's routine about Bullseye! It's hilarious!
How has she not already seen it when she repeats most of his jokes in this video. Surely you don’t believe a Canadian has thought up those jokes herself do you?
He lived in the vale of Lune, beautiful piece of Lancashire.... btw Lancashire used to be a HUGE county...used to stretch from cheshire to cumberland (now cumbria).. google 3 shire stone. Love your channel btw x
Did you notice Jim said to that Welsh contestant "Oh you're from Tredegar , where Men are Men and sheep are nervous" 😂
BAAAAAA !!
Velcro gloves and wellies are handed out at coming of age for a lad 😂
Men are men and sheep are careful.
Nostalgia is at a dangerous level.
Loved this show as a kid and still watch it to this day.
The Bullseye fruit machine was brilliant too. I'm on the look out for one. Would make my house seem so classy haha.
A great watch. Thank you 👍
The people commenting don't realise money had twice the value it has today. Most people couldn't afford all those things for their home. Wages were like £70 per week, there was no minimum wage, you were lucky to be on £1.30 ph.
I loved Bullseye and I did watch the reruns when you would've been watching. 👍 It's wholesome, family entertainment.
Have you watched "It's a Knockout"? , it's like a 1970's Total Wipeout.
Great point, back then a Washing Machine or a TV cost 2-3 weeks wages, nowadays you can pick one up for less than a week's work on minimum wage.
