And here’s Part Two, Fight night, where we battle on late 90’s beat em ups! 😀 Also I’ve discovered how to (sort of) digitally restore VHS tapes (or know how to white balance and sharpen the image) so it should look a bit better than yesterday’s episode.
I think I was at my most craziest here as I was absolutely convinced I’d get knocked out early, especially as fighting games are kinda my Achilles heel in competitions (thank goodness for the over abundance of First Person Shooters now – I’m much much better at them!)
Oh, a couple people in the last episode asked about Andy Collins and where he came from, he has actually been in all four seasons of Gamesworld, but he was never on camera as he was Bob Mills’ warm up man for the audience for the previous seasons. (though he did “mysteriously” appear as a “randomly picked member of the audience” in the third series of Gamesmaster for a challenge).
Anyhoo, after Gamesworld, he was getting quite big, he presented a garden make over show called “Garden SOS” and his biggest gig was taking over from Les Dennis for the afternoon version of Family Fortunes (UK’s name for Family Feud), but both shows aired in 2002, and he sort of stopped presenting and became a warm up guy again, mostly for Strictly Come Dancing (UK’s Dancing with the Stars) and All-Star Mr & Mrs. also the odd appearance in Pantomime. (he’ll be playing as “Chester the Jester” in Sleeping Beauty at the Aylesbury Waterside Theater this December!)
Oh, one more bit of news, after all these years, I’ve managed to get in contact with Sian from these episodes of Gamesworld and we might do a commentary on one of the episodes together!
