All it took was that still of Nigel and I was ALL IN for this video.

[@LoganPlayzGaming]

That's why i clicked 😂😂😂

[@jel3726]

Remember Paul Bradley playing the burglar in the tv series bottom great episode :)

[@FatGitLovesThe80s]

Forced to drink some poisoned steaming cold Elm tea. What a trooper.

[@eddieedward1986]

Why am I seeing this for the first time... NOW. Good laugh that.

[@jumpinjono]

I was at the arena when they filmed this. It was done during the 1996 Celeb Special with Redgrave and Pinsent. We were sat down at the front right by the Whiplash so had a great view of the whole event.

[@mcsonicteam]

Wow that’s amazing

[@michaellam2508]

2:57 Leon's Mum's Mum's Mum 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@JimboSlice-dice]

😂

[@DavidXNewton]

I have great memories of watching Gladiators with my family in the 90s and had somehow never seen this before - thanks so much for uploading it! The remote control to send the travelator the other way :)

[@jamesgriffin7962]

That was brilliant when he bribed wolf and john

[@morganlefaye5699]

Back when comic relief actually produced funny skits

[@mcsonicteam]

Yes I used to love watching comic relief now I’m not bothered.

[@sunraider0_0]

Same with Children in Need

[@waynecarter2169]

The only decent one I can remember from recent ones is the over that Coldplay did, the Game of Thrones musical, especially Jamie Lannister singing "Spare a thought for poor Joffrey, such a spirited lad. I was his uncle, and also his dad!" 😆😆😆

[@jonwoodmass2849]

Everything is hurty now. I remember growing up in a plant pot. All I needed was water, sunlight and soil 😂

[@matthewtrigg7432]

Back to when TV was fun & no one was offended and no narcissists.

[@JimboSlice-dice]

This was comedy gold

[@rosson1983]

‘Alan’s new girlfriend’ *kisses and hugs Leon’s wife* 😂

[@KayleighNatasha]

OMG I remember this, it was funny and hilarious

[@ChristopherHeward]

Should be on Sport Relief - Sport Relief was made for this!

[@UKProgRock]

Sport Relief wasn't a thing in 1997, it didn't come around until 2002.

[@pearljam619]

These were the good old days.

[@GladiatorsBoy]

Haven't seen this since it was first shown. Brilliant.

[@markwright5223]

Brilliant.

[@kevsteele43]

[@STEJTHEGREATEST]

4:06 Geri was my favourite, too!!!!

[@Camberwell86]

[@orcue70]

[@gladfan1989]

[@anneshields2010]

Nigel from Eastenders I probably seen this but don’t remember it also the new 2024 Gladiators are doing something for Comic relief can’t wait to see it

[@mazza685]

The cherry on the cake would've been a police officer handcuffing poor Leon while a bank manager is signing some paperwork foreclosing the house!

[@BossRoss999]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA THAT WAS TOOOOOOOO FUNNY I COULD NOT STOP LAUGHING

[@Dim4323]

They are having a lot of fun

[@samringham6957]

[@STEJTHEGREATEST]

[@christianlangdale2043]

6:20 Bud: Alan's struggling on the rope.

[@lizb3139]

[@Zerobob26]

AWOOGA! That was actually pretty damn funny, espeically Alan's new wife and kids at the end 😂

[@ghostoftheyoutubefuture2630]

I never understood what AWOOGA actually meant lol

[@RoyStantz]

@@ghostoftheyoutubefuture2630 Ask Craig Charles.

[@ScapoloMichael]

​@@ghostoftheyoutubefuture2630a bit like "hurray" lol

[@ghostoftheyoutubefuture2630]

Never heard that one before..... sounds like it's in the realms of Abra Cadabra lol@@ScapoloMichael

[@therealianwest]

First appeared in a comic strip in the S*n newspaper. Rock Steady Eddie was the strip

[@Johnno9989]

I have a feeling Alan's some sort of conman ;)

[@glenhammond1537]

2:57 😂

[@christianlangdale2043]

Bud: Alan's struggling on the rope.

[@alanbeck8806]

How funny is this ? 😂 Absolute comedy & tv gold,all for food causes. Tremendous sportsmanship from all concerned.

[@BENCPARSONS]

The guy in blue sounds like ash off casualty

[@Celticbeef]

loved every second of that!🤣

[@Andy28548]

Is Alan Tucker also thr one who played Elliot Hope in Holby City years later looks like him

[@robertryan1644]

It is and also Nigel from Eastenders in the 90s

[@charlottethecat6302]

Mr bean on gladiators would be funny lol

[@Andy28548]

Nice guy was Ash in Casulty and DC Jacob Banks

[@Andy28548]

Did they make any other charity versions for comic relief/children in need

[@madamx7422]

I just want to know which bloke in Casualty is that sign at 7:11 referring to? 😄

[@dellzincht]

Martin 'Ash' Ashford, played by Patrick Robinson. Who is playing Leon here. The other bloke is Paul Bradley, who played Nigel Bates in Eastenders.

[@neilgodfrey2669]

I remember Craig Charles saying “Awooga” when he hosted a video game tv show years before this. Fashanu stole it.

[@smailer07]

Was this shown on BBC1 or ITV? If it was shown on BBC1, it would've been strange since it wasn't normally shown on that channel

[@magicalsenshi8685]

+Richard Smailes This was a Comic Relief sketch, so it was shown on BBC1 rather than ITV.

[@electronicearnings]

Awoogah!

[@CameronInglis1999]

This is hilarious!

[@ukgladiatorsfan]

LOL Favourite Spice girl : Geri!

[@DankerTVTimeCapsule]

Oh so gladiators technically has been on the bbc before.

[@andrewdipplecomedy]

Is that Nigel from EastEnders??

[@Foo-oo-oo-oolsGold89]

Ulri ka ka ka ka Johnson 😂😂😂

[@misterprecocious2491]

🎵ohh she's football crazy she's football mad I can't think of a footballer Ulrika has not had🎵😂

[@jamiesworld1690]

Is this a spoof

[@davidevans1978]

Nigel?!?!?

[@halriggs9328]

John not exactly in fighting shape

[@chloenelson1503]

Alan cheating his business associates hurt Leon

[@chrispeat285]

Leon's mums mum mum is definitely not allowed in today wet society

[@neilrennie4677]

Sadly Gladiators isn't filmed at the indoor arena in Birmingham anymore it was moved to Sheffield.. I think they still do the odd W.W.F at Birmingham

[@rosson1983]

Comic Relief used to be great. Now they rely on ‘comedians’ like Lenny Henry instead…

[@LA-cv9eq]

Stop trying to make awooga a thing

[@jessicawright6923]

Cheater!!!!

[@oufc29]

he did cheat gave the wolf money and had a remote control to slow his platform down no fair plus the other guy got a dart in his leg from someone in the adience if that aint cheating then what was it

[@Kat-mu8wq]

Kinda the point of comic relief folks.. Funny entertainment to earn money for charity.

[@atalanta9353]

Cringe. Comic Relief has always been painful watching.

[@user-fu1cj4fc7o]

Hated this show, thought was so childish, Ladies very cute, especially JET

[@catherinespark]

So you hate children and anything reminiscent of childhood because it’s reminiscent of childhood? That doesn’t sound like a very happy childhood to me :)

[@user-fu1cj4fc7o]

@@catherinespark did I say I hated children, just giving my opinion about that show, minority of them were on steroids, I read there were stuff going on behind the scenes, so if you think that program was Fit for children ur welcome to It

[@KINGSLEY-TV]

You imagine if they did this today even though it is comedy blacks would play the race card like crazy lol
