CHAIN LETTERS with JEREMY BEADLE 1988 (part 1)

Part 1 of a recording of the game show "Chain Letters" presented by Jeremy Beadle and first transmitted in 1988. One of the contestants in this show is my wife Beverly.

[@speedyboishan87]

Jeremy Beadle was a fantastic joker, beats any other tv presenter or comedian, he will be missed and always unforgotten as one of thw nations best loved tv presenters.

[@stephenmcconnell1000]

The inexplicable addition of 'WOAH-WOAH-WOAH, HERE'S BEADLE' was just genius.

[@mercuryvapoury]

During the Xmas episode, they'd change it to "woah woah woah, merry Xmas". It's just the little details.

[@Eclipse2582]

@@mercuryvapoury Nothing inexplicable about it. Beadle was a prime-time TV superstar back in the 1980s. Put respeck on the man's name. RIP Jeremy Beadle.

[@stephenmcconnell1000]

@@Eclipse2582 "respeck"?

[@Eclipse2582]

Yes. RESPECK. I said what I said. Respeck the Legend of Beadle and keep your trolling mouth shut.

[@Keshihead]

A great tribute to a great entertainer. RIP Jeremy :)

[@nealpatel4255]

I love this music.

[@Aaronator19842009]

Jeremy Beadle is a great TV legend, RIP.

I was beginning to think I was suddenly watching this on x2 speed during Beverley's round, holy cow that was superb!

[@jamesfish18]

I used to really really love Jeremy.

[@DamienRoweArts]

I remember getting home from school- 2nd class, and watching this at dinnertime! I was 8. This episode is over 20 years old...wow! I remember playing along to this,and talking to the lads in my class about it when I'd go back to school when it was over for the day. Great seeing this again- thank you Sir!!!

[@plume...]

And now it's 33 years old! And your comment is 13 years old!

[@DamienRoweArts]

@@plume... this comment was made by my brother, before he had a profile he went on leaving comments on videos and then people comment back to me ,and I'm left scratching my head ,he now has his own profile thankfully, but I do also recall this show if that helps

[@user-xo6rm7oz3k]

From the 80s British game show "Chain Letters", this is a February 1988 episode in season one. Marie, David & Beverley are the three contestants competing today. 🇬🇧 🇬🇧

[@DesElmes]

Great performance by Beverley in the first round - she scored as much as David and Marie put together.

[@BlokeFromBattersea]

You're welcome. I'm glad you like it. I have now uploaded the rest (parts 2&3) after removing them because of a problem. Cheers John

[@CelticPowerRanger]

They should play this game in schools, would make English lessons more enjoyable and would certainly liven up our National Curriculum.

[@andrewbowes6124]

we do

[@JeopardyandWheelFan]

This show actually started out as an unsold 1985 American game show pilot hosted by Jim Peck. That's why the show was created by Barry & Enright Productions.

[@wolverine1865]

my gran was on that show once when it was on.

[@antster1983]

3rd February 1988, it says at the beginning.

[@byronelenica8329]

Jeremy Beadle the King of TV entertainment.

[@BlokeFromBattersea]

Sept 1988 & july 2000 Cheers John

[@fraserkatie]

Broadcast the day before my birthday in 1988!!!!! My birthday is the 4th February.

[@nealpatel4255]

Were you born in 1988?. Do you like this theme tune?.

[@fraserkatie]

@@nealpatel4255 No I was born in 1976 but I remember this theme tune!

[@nealpatel4255]

Do you like the tune

[@BobbyManford]

He spelt Bonk by mistake . Snarf snarf 😏😏

[@CelticPowerRanger]

Did anyone else notice how all three contestants managed to make the word BORE? What would have been the odds of that or was it pre-arranged just because of the gags at the beginning about the bloke who stuffed boars for a living?

[@BlokeFromBattersea]

Yes!

[@robholt77]

Look at his little hand!!!

[@datashat]

Beverly's shirt is awesome.

[@BlokeFromBattersea]

I have to take your word for that!

[@BlokeFromBattersea]

I had planned to upload another show, it's just finding the time.

[@pjbolas]

Awesome :D. I hope you don't mind me asking, but will you be putting them on KZbin?

[@davidtownson1476]

Just a shame that ITV had stopped showing the opening ITV company logos: not quite the same without the TYNE TEES zooming logos!

[@jamesfish18]

I live less than 10 miles away from Beverley, as I live very close to Gatwick.

[@killybing1]

i was on the earlier shows about 1985 my name billy king wished i could see my show i was on with a black guy from london who was a tax man lol

[@Gallowaywind]

Challenge TV has got hold Chain letters, I believe its the later show but it could end up with the older ones

[@BlokeFromBattersea]

I'm afraid not. My wife Beverly has appeared on quite a few shows, and these are the only ones I have recorded. Sorry... Cheers John

[@BlokeFromBattersea]

Will do!

[@Gallowaywind]

Jeremy Beadle (1987 - 1988) Andrew O'Connor (1988 - 1989) Allan Stewart (1989 - 1991) Ted Robbins (1993 - 1995) ( clip of this on here) Vince Henderson (1996) Dave Spikey (1997)

[@cupcakefairy87]

The host I remeber most from this show was Ted Robbins. Never knew Jeremy Beadle hosted it too!

[@marcpower4167]

4 different hosts: Beadle, Ted Robbins, Vince Henderson & Dave Spikey

[@AllenJeremy]

@@marcpower4167 Andrew O Connor & Allan Stewart were hosts as well.

[@jamesfish18]

I have just had something pretty evil happen to me on Friday, and if Jeremy was still alive I would sort of expect him to be part of it.

[@eclectica1]

Dressed as a policeman?

[@danmcdaid]

But who would host it?

[@pjbolas]

How many Memory Bank and 4 Square episodes do you have?

[@BlokeFromBattersea]

This was a genuine story. The trouble is, the TV company and JB wanted to rehearse it, so he could ask the question "what's the most you have paid for a rabbit? This made it sound false. The car was a write-off, so was the rabbit. I think the claim wasquite quick.

[@stephenmcconnell1000]

"Change the B to a W to make Wank; W-A-N-K."

[@BlokeFromBattersea]

That's because they come from...England :-)

[@BlokeFromBattersea]

It wasn't arranged.

[@MichalKuric]

Sean Young :)

[@BlokeFromBattersea]

1 Memory Bank and 3-4 Four Square

[@majinvegeta2007]

he didn't have an artificial arm! he had six fingers on one hand.

[@danmcdaid]

He didn't have six fingers on one hand! One of his hands was a secret gun which fired eggs.

[@stulufc6620]

danmcdaid fired or fried? 😂

[@BlokeFromBattersea]

Hi doddzesgameshowroom (do you like game shows?) I only have this one as my wife was in it and won! I do plan to upload other game shows that she was in...Runway (with Chris Searle); 4 Square; 100%; 100% Gold; One to Win; No Win, No Fee; Judgemental; Memory Bank; (New) Sale Of The Century; Winner Takes All; 15 to 1 and Weakest Link.

[@biring1701]

I think Beverly looks HOT!

[@elinlloyd7002]

what happend to his fingers ?

[@stephenmcconnell1000]

Jeremy Beadle had a withered right hand, but he would still use it to hold the microphone and to shake hands with people.

[@AllenJeremy]

The studio audience must have been full of college students.

[@benrichards399]

me and bev would be at it like rabbits...

[@kevinlangstone609]

I really hope your wife's name badge is incorrect or your going to be a bad husband for spelling her name wrong in the video description.

[@BlokeFromBattersea]

Kevin Langstone Tv companies always spelt her name wrong.

[@swarthyjake4433]

[@Maundervision]

'I think they fancy you, Beverly' = Jeremy Beadle trying to chat up your wife! Hope you gave him a stern rebuke...

[@darrowby1972]

Ahem! "was"

[@njerzynek]

he was a prankster and he had an artifical arm, not a good combernation

[@fraserkatie]

Who invited children to be in the audience?

[@gavdaman2K9]
