Did it Nov 14 2017 6 of the 8 are their had a blast.most of the young bar tenders had no idea about the 8 crawl. Met some real nice people at the rose and crown. I'm coming bs k next year. Rick from canada
My ex grew up in Wimbledon and we did 27 pubs in one day. Being a lady I was only drinking halves and not so fast but that was a right funny pisshead experience!
Did this fantastic pub crawl yesterday,raised a glass for Oliver.Best pub by a long chalk was The Crooked Billet,fantastic array of beers ad ciders.Fox and Grapes was woeful,empty,sterile,miserable South African barman,2 choices of lagers,total cack.Dog and Fox very poncy,barman needs a firmer wrist to serve the pints.Very nice day,Wimbledon Common is very beautiful in the sunshine.
@Gordon Morrice Unfortunately we were forced to postpone it to a date that turned out to be impossible due to lockdown. We shall reschedule for sure, though.
I wonder how many actually know that it was arm wrestling that killed dear Oliver in the Pub where he was staying in Malta during shooting. Its sad that he never got to see how good he was in the finished movie.. I bet his up there at a table beating all the angels at arm wrestling now.. A wonderful , missed national treasure ! Cheers Olly !
I attempted the Wimbledon 8 last month. I'm not a big drinker, so I only made it to 6 and quit after the Hand in Hand. I knew I'd be sick if I had one more, so I went home. The hard part is the time factor towards the end. I saw the arm-wrestling man in the same pub in this video but didn't bother him. I'll try the 8 again some day and make it to the end. It's a pretty area, too.
I think its a great video, dont listen to these slags on here chanting bigger harder drinks. The Wimbledon 8 has no rules, just 8 pints of something. Good video, glad to see another Oliver Reed fan. 5*
Just out of curiosity, are the pubs (not necessarily in this order): (1) The Brewery Tap; (2) The Fire Stables aka The Castle; (3) The Rose and Crown; (4) The Hand in Hand; (5) The Crooked Billet; (6) The Fox and Grapes; (7) The Dog and Fox; and (8) The Swan?
Love it - have you got a list of pubs to visit ideally starting and ending near the train station? Trying to organise a day out for 8 people next Saturday (I know tennis is on) thanks Steve
He ignored you. Mind you this video was made 15 years ago. His liver might have thrown in the towel and he may currently reside in that great lock-in in the sky. I hope not.
The guy aint even that pissed at the end if im honest lol. Still, i would like to try it but ive drank more then 8 pints so i think it woul dbe a doddle.
8 pints on a chimney is tiffin......this weedy lil lad should be at home clutching teddy and dribbling, god bless him for the respect to the culture tho....not everyone's cup of tea,but they all look down their noses at it....still they only live till 80 on a fruit diet,in an old peoples home,no marbles, sitting in piss soaked chairs....who's a winner?.....OLIVER.
surely in drank in 9? The Dog and Fox The Castle The Rose and Crown The Brewery Tap The Billet The Hand in Hand The Fox and Grapes The King of Denmark The Swan
Its a fun idea, and im sure back in the day it was even better, but with chain pubs and crappy chemical swill at £4 a go who would want to. In the day it was probably very social, a bit of fresh air and exercise and fun.. now, I have no idea its like the government just want us all to simply wait at home to die paying them a grand in tax a month for the privilege.. 1 out of 3 people are in benifits the best quality benifits in social history... im wondering who are the smart people really??
The Wimbledon 8 was 6a pint in the first 2 in th 2nd 3in the 3rd ect ect 8 in the last not just a pint in each pub anyone can fo a single pint at each pub the guy doing this is very much a lightweight
Excellent work. There should be a blue plaque at each of these pubs in commemoration of Ollie's epic pub crawls.
Agreed 👍
He was so handsome ,a mans man🎉🎉🎉😻
ollie did 5 bottles of wine one afternoon . wish people would remember ollie for his superb acting tho. he was the man. RIP Ollie.. x

Oliver Reed was an amazing actor.
What’s that got to do with the Wimbledon 8?
Oh dear...

I tip my hat to you fella ... Ole' Olli must have been looking down, sipping away and smiling at you!
well done ol boy a very nice memory road thought for mr reed
Really good vid, I have done the 16 on a few occasions. Running across the common was always the hardest part. Good work Fella
this is great and i'm gonna do it in my home town very soon! r.i.p. olly
Great video man, next time I'm in London I hope to give it a try.
It sounds like my friends and I will be attempting this this weekend.
@Gordon Morrice Unfortunately we were forced to postpone it to a date that turned out to be impossible due to lockdown. We shall reschedule for sure, though.
@Gordon Morrice We had made plans to make a 'fan remake' of this video, as well (in all the same places). It will happen at some point.
Great work mate

I know what you mean.
God bless Olly.
Nice tribute!
CHrist someone did it???? BLOODY HELL!
What a great idea! Anyone up for it on St Georges day? Let's make Olly proud!
Good on ya!
Ollie would go round twice!
I think its a great video, dont listen to these slags on here chanting bigger harder drinks. The Wimbledon 8 has no rules, just 8 pints of something.

Aw, what a sweet young man trying to keep with we real drinkers!
Hahaha you legend! good video
great Vid, my old man drank with Ollie in the 60's !
Lester Kite no he didnt
He didn’t do the crawl in the 60s.
@@fifthbusiness1678 how do you know he didn't?
Arm-wrestling with Simon Taylor! (That was The Hand In Hand-not the Rose & Crown)
Great film.....:)
Good work mate. I'm aiming to do the 16 in 4 hours and put it on TH-cam in the same way. The latter stages should be amusing.
NO SHIT!!! I WANTED TO DO THIS!!!
He finds out that is at pub no. 7 by looking at his watch.
wimbledon looks like a very nice place to live and nice boozers!!!
he enjoyed himself
and that's all that matters
ollie woulda been proud ! :)

at least he gave it a go
love Oliver Reed & i enjoyed this....but didnt Ollie down the pint before the barman brought him his change haa

Crawling and barfing m'friend thats when your doing it right!
Hello, Like it regret store What's your opinion about it
good video, i bet he was ill the next day, but life is to short so enjoy it
Sure he said that was my 4th on his 3rd, cant be arsed checking tho
nice idea, try it with some mates next time:-)
I wonder what Ollie would have made of all the shitty chain pubs that have replaced all the proper British boozers nowadays?
The guy aint even that pissed at the end if im honest lol. Still, i would like to try it but ive drank more then 8 pints so i think it woul dbe a doddle.
whats the list of the Wimbledon 8
Like the abomination that is the refurbished Dog&Fox?? (the first pub that he goes in)
BoM BOM BOM BOM, BOM - BOM - BOM - BOMBOMBOM!!
1:02 already looks nervous!! poor show son!!!
you think that is bad you should go to weymouth and do the park street shuffle!!!
heheh there wasn't any music between 7 and 8.
What’s the guys name in the video?
Why? Do you fancy him?
The 8 is happening in spring 22, but just so long as enough people show interest. Who's game?
No
I dunno, the Hand In Hand is ok
ollie wouldnt be drinkin on his own, who are the slags
where,s the queen,s arms ? round the kings bum lol.
MrPlumTree not funny
on the last night i went out i drank
14 pints
2 double vodkas
3 jagerbombs. jog on sun. 8 pints is nothing
2011magic massive respect to you pal
8 pints on a chimney is tiffin......this weedy lil lad should be at home clutching teddy and dribbling, god bless him for the respect to the culture tho....not everyone's cup of tea,but they all look down their noses at it....still they only live till 80 on a fruit diet,in an old peoples home,no marbles, sitting in piss soaked chairs....who's a winner?.....OLIVER.
Hoovercat what the hell does ‘8 pints on a chimney is tiffin’ mean??? Are you pissed?
No way did he have even seven pint's. No change in his manner at all.
ENERJEE risn maybe he just isn’t a complete lightweight like you?

The Dog and Fox
The Castle
The Rose and Crown
The Brewery Tap
The Billet
The Hand in Hand
The Fox and Grapes
The King of Denmark
The Swan
Lager? Oh, really.
Exactly what I was thinking. Ollie was a real ale man, shirley?

Its a fun idea, and im sure back in the day it was even better, but with chain pubs and crappy chemical swill at £4 a go who would want to.
