Bloody hell, Dyer was a consummate pro... So slick between banter and advertising..

[@Jimmison007]

'You was or you were?' Thank you George. XD

[@mshroye2]

I can understand why this was a popular show down under.

[@Jimmison007]

Bob was so casual and endearing!

[@12121149]

For what reason??????

[@saxongreen78]

That's one super-cool grand prize...a Hemi Pacer!

[@Jimmison007]

Sure is. My Grandma (Jill) ended up winning it!

[@12121149]

It was a six cylinder.

Vaguely remember this show as a child. Great to watch

[@Dallas-Nyberg]

My late Mum loved this show....in fact, I liked it myself.

[@andythenerd3527]

Just discovered this months ago. Grew up in the states but love Bob Dyer here. Love his combo aussie (not sure which area)/southeastern USA accent. Very unique.

[@RichardFelstead1949]

I think he came from Tennessee.

[@Mummapuss226]

I really love watching the old stuff absolutely loved it.

[@brendanwilliams7291]

Great stuff, that’s a good show.

as a lad we used to go around ask for stickers at the BP and other places the STP sticker was hard to find

[@markissboi3583]

Some lad invented a crash rising car seat when he drove at a brick wall 30mph no seat belt the seat incursion rose stopped the body moving forward pulled him back into the seat he did 60mph and walked out ok Never seen that Invention again rising rack roller system - and the lad who walked into work with a frictional hinge BE dammed how he put it togeather it was sent to NASA as any friction may cause a spark .

(SPOILER) As generous as they were on the "which ruler" question, the question made reference to *March* 1881 (when Alexander II of Russia was assassinated), not *September* 1881 (when President Garfield was assassinated).

[@naughtythirtyfour]

You are absolutely correct, whilst allowing a variation of ruler, the United States/Garfield was the incorrect answer.

1969 mutton chops Moe's and valiants !

[@hoorootv7266]

"Motor cars" lolol. 🚗

[@mshroye2]

Seems to be a bit of a format change over the 3 videos of this show on KZbin. this one has trilons instead of boxes, no buy out, and the option to keep or trade, also there seems to be a schedule change as he mentions the hemi pacer would be offered next week and the board has prizes revealed

[@debbieanne7962]

You wouldn't get 2 cents for the Encyclopaedia Britannia nowadays

[@thomasfisher5742]

curiosity value only lol

[@ClassicAustralianTV]

Great video! Thanks for posting. Do you know exactly what month this aired?

[@Jimmison007]

Thanks! It was aired early November.

[@Jimmison007]

@Conniptions886 Not exactly sure when she would of gotten the actual car, but its likely it could of been gifted a bit after the show. Incidentally i work for a company that stores vehicle releases and some of the VG's were released on the 1st of January 1970, quite possible it was used in promotions and offered as prizes before the actual public release.

howdy customers

[@DavidChristieCareerCafe]

Hi Larraine.

[@craigtroth4524]

If Bob Dyer had of talked less and gotten on with the show it would have been a better show to watch !!!
