The Krypton Factor 1991 Episode

[@robnathan974]

Thanks so much for taking me back. What a show ❤😊

[@hazelwalsh3269]

No idea how they do the mental agility test so quick!

[@JJLincoln90]

Hats off to Paul for finishing the assault course after that fall

[@davidfearis7335]

18:02 YIKES THAT WAS A VERY SCARY FALL!!!

[@Classictv90s]

That is a cool set for the 1991 series of The Krypton Factor.

[@tjfSIM]

‘Tony Hetherington’ is such an early 1990s name 🤣

[@burnsyblues]

It is! 😂

[@keilanknight8513]

That physical course was not comfortable viewing for someone of a nervous disposition! Miraculous recovery, that could have ended very very wrong indeed!

[@HarlemHyena]

Who else wants a compilation of the Observation Phase serials? I think Where is Don Day is quickly becoming my favorite!

[@SamHodkin23]

To my knowledge, the Response Round was permanently the flight simulator from 1988. Prior to that, the response round was done in-studio.

[@kaitlinbilous4605]

In some finals, they had to manoeuvre a real plane

[@01cipas]

The runner up went on to win the grand final

[@dannheap]

More episodes please!

[@johncooper361]

I really thought that Tim and Paul were gonna hurt themselves, thanks to that A-frame.

[@paulevans5026]

The first round was I think at Coalville, this helicopter simulator was certainly at RAF Culdrose and the final (air to air refuelling) was filmed at an RAF Nimrod base in Scotland. If I remember right we were supposed to go to Russia for their space shuttle equivalent but there were visa problems or similar - believe me JJLincoln90, the shuttle could not have been harder than the refuelling. Happy Days.

[@JJLincoln90]

To be fair it did look pretty difficult haha. So as well as you and Tony who where the other two finalists of 1991?

[@laurenceparsons7721]

Hi Paul! Happy days indeed! ;-) JJLincoln - the other two finalists were Tristan, who I seem to recall broke the assualt course record time, and some bloke called Laurence Parsons, who seemed to be there to make up the numbers ;-)

[@greg0uk]

RNAS Culdrose

[@MultiVince95]

Great video

[@astanger1]

yes I like to see the 92 series

[@dominewimbury2039]

Blimey! How did Paul even carry on with that after that fall never mind winning the thing?! OMG

[@javiergomez9970]

Could you upload the grand finals from 1989 and 1992 please?

[@JJLincoln90]

Correct, and each grand final from 1988 onward had it's own unique response round In this one I believe it was a refueling mission using the Nimrod simulator which was quite amusing because if memory serves me correctly all 4 finalists failed miserably

[@JeopardyandWheelFan]

When the Response round permanently changed to the flight simulator version, was that round pre-recorded just like Physical Ability? I ask because it looks like the contestants are watching their own performance in that round.

[@benvallely1352]

Andrew Hain yes it was

[@JJLincoln90]

It was the Boeing 737, the same one they used for 1992 and 1993

[@TruckerJenkins82]

30 year olds in 1991 look like the 50 year olds of today

[@nixfriend796]

I really want to know where the contestants are now

[@brynjones420]

Nix Friend Tony is my maths teacher but he’s fat now....

[@sammypatch]
