[Other Sport] You Bet!

[crodonilson]

ITV have announced this morning they are bringing back cult TV game show You Bet! hosted by Stephen Mulhern. Always was a favourite of me and Mrs Crod back in the day as we joined in and bet wether the contestant could complete their challenge. Who can forget possibly the most iconic challenge of all...

 

[Farehamseagull]

You Bet! AND Strictly?! Yours and Mrs Crodo’s Saturday nights are going to be wild Crodo!

Possible clash though so the big question of the day is which one do you watch live and which one do you stream after?!

 

[Jackthelad]

Stephen Mulhern gets so much work, I've never understood why.

 

[Is it PotG?]

There's a misspell in the first sentence.

This was a good show for its day. The one sticks in my mind, as a huge Bowie fan, was a guy naming the tracks based on just a few notes of the intros.

Not sure how well it will present to an audience today although Alan Carr's revivals of old game shows seems to have gone down quite well. I just find that Mulhern grates but I'll give it a go.

I had forgotten the whole show, let alone the iconic challenge.

It gets better, not only is it a revamp of the 80's/90's classic gameshow but it's a CELEBRITY version.



Odds on, pardon the pun, Joey Essex or Gemma Collins on the first show.

Starring Ivan Toney?

Sounds a hoot and absolutely no doubt box office edge of your seat viewing. Awooooooga

 

[Pevenseagull]

What a time to be alive!

There are no letters visible on the OFF button of my TV remote. They have worn away.

I can do this with Brighton goalscorers in any competitive game since 2011, this programme is nothing special.

Not taking anything away from you, but Stephen Mulhern doesn’t have the same studio presence as Matthew “2 scoops” Kelly

I think it's because he's a generally well like, mild-manner light entertainer who's a safe pair of hands for shows like this

 

[Mellotron]

I remember LOVING this as a kid.

There is a chance I'll discover my tastes have changed.

 

[Papak]

I think it was this show where a guy was blindfolded and had to identify the make and model of cars by hearing the door being closed.

Gripping stuff

It would appear I am not alone:

This is exactly why the pole feature was invented...

 

[MJsGhost]

My folks were never keen on watching ITV, so for that reason, I've never seen it.

Based on that clip, I don't feel that I missed out.

Thankyou for posting this Crodo. 2 of my mates used to be red coats with Mulhern at Butlins and - as a result of working with him over a period of time - probably wouldn't piss on him if he was on fire. Naturally, I took great delight sending them this story on the WhatsApp group this morning.
