The Games Excerpt

[@NickJohnCoop]

There will never be someone who could do deadpan sarcasm as well as John Clarke.

[@tonybaloney8617]

This series is absolutely phenomenal

[@JimOHalloran]

It's a shame John Clarke isn't still with us to have another crack at this for the Brisbane Games.

[@EmmittBrownBTTF1]

An if look back home, he might see a perfect target - er - subject in Christopher Luxon.

[@paulorocky]

Utopia might have a crack at it

[@JimOHalloran]

@@paulorocky I feel like Utopia is the spiritual successor to The Games. I’m hoping they move the series north and do the Brisbane games.

[@MadMasterNeil]

I hope they make a series. 32 years later. Wow. I loved this show as a teenager.

[@JimOHalloran]

@@MadMasterNeil Yeah, still one of my favourites too... Utopia has much the same feel, I hope they do a Utopia series where they take the crew north to work on the Brisbane Games. It'd be a worthy successor to the original series.

[@Balancedviewable]

A long necked waddle for peace, kills me every time.

[@joannefisher3281]

Would love to see this series again.

[@johnmoyle4195]

Brian became the 100m world champion when he tested out the track.

[@doctorf7501]

He'll be sorely missed.

'We've got the NSW junior champs this weekend. The under 15s are gonna break the world record'

[@nevyn_karres]

Hehe lol.

[@adelarsen9776]

Everyone knows the 100m track is 94 metres in length. It's a standard.

[@frederickcooper7031]

2 seasons of this in the 2 years leading up to the 2000 Olimpics. Many great episodes - Dead IOC officials, con-men and the Government interfering with matters. Guest stars aplenty as well as many great local talents. This is only the first half/third of the 100m fiasco.

[@geopolitix7770]

I always remembered the discussion about doping and how the minister might want to consider NOT cracking down on it too much lest no records got broken🤣

[@karmapolice6888]

Got to get this sorted before the NSW schools tournament or someone will break a world record

[@stuffedgrubs]

John Clark gold

[@Chartwell30]

RIP John

[@attackpatterndelta8949]

We've got two new events haven't we Mr Wilson. We've got the Men's 96 metres and the Women's 96 metres.

[@johnmoyle4195]

94 metres

[@Autotrope]

This excerpt cuts off the scene part way through, just as it's getting funny.

[@Karl-pm9hv]

"I want to hear you say it" That was the gold line of the scene.

[@RWBHere]

[@stevecrocker6904]

why cut off the denouement? A bit dopey! ..... ahhhh! Umbrellaent wants us to buy their product

[@Whisper555]

Always had a bit of a crush on Louise Siversen

[@munch15a]

I remember this. So funny. Back when the internet was young and Australasian Broadcasting promised to release all shows on the internet. No wuckin furries mate. This is fine.

wheres the F'n end ???????????????

[@Rtu776]

We'll say it's the "100 yard track" and the rest fell off.

[@jdrancho1864]

The front part, was it??

[@johnmoyle4195]

Metres.

[@stevecrocker6904]

Jasmine?? - ah the bliss of not knowing you're a twit. There were a few at our P&C meetings who were like that

[@chrlz904]

Seriously, you cut it there???? Copyright escapism perhaps? What a waste of effing time that shows utter disrespect for comedy genius...

[@paulcoffey359]

Exactly. Didn't even get to the best parts.

[@SM-dt1pr]

This is supposedly what Twenty Twelve ripped off? It's nothing like it.

[@mfranssens]

Love this series but even they couldn’t foresee the current madness in western countries. You can’t make satire. The governments and governing bodies are doing it themselves. Australian ladies breakdancing?
