Game For A Laugh.

My Father Norman King on The Hit 80s Show Game For A Laugh around 83/84 with Jeremy Beale.

My grandad was a taxi driver and was on this as well. He just said he remembers watching this from behind a bush. He also has his episode on a video.

[@julieanneking1]

That’s interesting to know. Yes there were three drivers involved in the stunt. I also have a video of the whole sketch but just posted my dads bit in memory of him as he died of lung cancer a couple of years later so was a nice memory to have. Thank you for your reply and regards to your grandad Sarah.

Didn’t realise Ron Atkinson was once a cab driver

[@chunkybuster7203]

That's a cracking 'syrup' that driver's got on!

He's fairly tame 😂

[@davidevans3227]

yes! i came here to say exactly that.. great minds 🙂

[@kelv1969]

You can't do anything nowadays. Oh if only I could go back to the 80s, when pop music was good and there weren't any mobile phones with everyone glued to the screens.

[@edsmith613]

Fair play to the cabby getting out with a lion

[@faithdavis4453]

Surely this wouldn't be aloud today.

[@7ofthem]

Or even ‘allowed’..

[@grahamnancledra7036]

No. It would be kept quiet.

[@09weenic]

The taxi driver is Ron Atkinson

[@danielchiverton4168]

health and safety would stop them doing this now.

[@julieanneking1]

Very true. Couldn’t get away it today.

[@paultyree1]

[@centureye]

hahahah i remember this

[@daftfader666]

Hi Julie. My grandfather was the other cab driver in this prank. Do you happen to have the whole recording, as I would love to get my hands on it? Thanks.

[@julieanneking1]

I will check for you as think I have the whole scene on a video tape but not 100% sure. I won’t be able to make a copy though but the best I can do is film it from my phone and WhatsApp it or email it to you that’s if I have it which I think I do.

[@daftfader666]

@@julieanneking1 that would be awesome thank you. No rush.. I have been already waiting 40 years. 😀

[@julieanneking1]

Your welcome. Will try to sort out asap as need to connect the video player up and hope it still works fingers crossed 🤞.

[@julieanneking1]

Not forgotten about sorting out the video. Am out of the country at the moment but back to the uk next Friday so will try and sort it out at the weekend for you. Will let you know when it’s ready.

[@yampk1]

Saw this as a kid, had crazy nightmares afterward, stupid prank

[@hughoxford8735]

I wouldn't go anywhere near a lion

[@Tangobaldy]

Tangobaldy would have got back in cab and drove of. This was a stupid prank.

[@grigoresimion8744]
