Did anyone ever have 'Jennifer Juinper' by the Singing Corner featuring Donovan?

'Hey Donovan, swing your pants!'

On the subject of source material, I'm sure I read somewhere that someone connected with Doctor Who clip research had made up some tapes for various programmes to use, to save accessing the original tapes all the time.

Did I imagine this?

Would this explain why certain clips are seen again & again, for technical/safety reasons?

Plus as well, if the majority of the clips wanted are on the one tape, less messing about, but we ought to be seeing 'new' clips too!

I've still got Multicoloured Saturdays on tape - if its mostly clips from that, I shall be disappointed... i.e. how Barry Manilow looked like a cameraman from Going Live.


Yes that clip is there... TWICE!! The very same camera man was working on this show too.

Actually, no - although Noel does do a couple of Deal Or No Deal references which obviously go down well.


I've always wondered why on Deal of no Deal they've not referenced Swap Shop during the "Swap" at the end. Have the banker ring up again after the contestant has accepted the swap, and after Noel has stopped laughing have him say "The Banker is willing to swap your box for a small collection of Dandy annuals from the 1980's".

that's a good point, remember on Millionnaire a contestant phoned a friend who asked Chris Tarrant when Tiswas was coming back Very Happy

I'll probably be able to answer that for you early in the new year... Wink

Back to the point, even though a lot of the clips were memorable from Multi-Coloured Saturdays, this is a much better effort (if that's possible - Multi-Coloured Saturdays is an excellnt programme). There's a lot more Swap Shop clips than you'll be expecting, and the stuff in the studio on the set will be the major reason for tuning in - they've done a wonderful job. Just check my photos (see above) and the ones on the SatMorns site.

I remember that, it's actually Fenners who now works on Soccer AM.

It's a shame Philip and Sarah won't be in the studio, but it's a bigger shame to me that Mike Read and Noel Edmonds don't get on. Noel was a regulr guest on Superstore. What a shame.

Interesting that the EPG claims there is strong language in the programme

Nice to see the titles were in 4:3 rather than cropped. I'm surprised to hear that the first programmes came from TC3, I thought it was always in TC7

According to the top ten list of swaps at number one...
"Little Noel offers a blue box, Wants to beat the evil banker"

TWO DoND jokes (and a reference) at the start?
