well we finally lost one of the true greats today. I guess he had a pretty good innings though.
It's Bully I feel sorry for

Re: RIP - Jim Bowen
Back in the days of limited channels and when sitting together as a family in front of the TV wasn't frowned upon.... this was legendary viewing.
I reckon the show (and his) status well outlived many of his peers from the time.
The shocking prizes
The now hilarious speed boat type star-prizes
The shocking dart throwers
All held together by Jim.
I want to say that it used to be on Sunday evenings (before Live at the Palladium or whatever was the big sunday night slot).
Was fantastic at the time.

I dunno but I did see a mod go off into the sunset on his speedboat with a trouser press under each arm.
