Anyone else have the misfourtune to watch this last night?

The only saving grace was Miss Bournmouth's **** and a couple of the contestants came a right cropper.

However the funniest bit was some fat lass saying how she has always been into sports - Ten Pin Bowling Not exactly Iron Man is it love

It makes Channel 5's International King of Sports look like the Olympics.

i thought it might be quite entertaining - like takeshi castle - that kinda thing

epically wrong

I switched it on to see some fat bitch singing "i am the 1 and only..... etc"

and embarassed herself going round the course.

anyway - after 5 mins i switched it off.

not sure if it will improve but it seemed to be full of 'tards first time round

I thought it was quite funny actually... But I'm easily pleased...

Why was Richard Hammond not actually there though? Couldn't really say he presented it... More like read the script after the event!

I didnt watch the BBC effort last night, but I have seen the American version which is quite good...

YouTube - Wipeout! episode 1, part 1

wagrain

Well we had a right laff watching that

The "fat cow" completed the course a lot quicker than some!!!

That poor bloke stuck in the mud and taking 1/4hr to do tha course


Don't expect a serious sporting competition, its more like "its a knockout" without Stewart Hall (or whatever his name was). Lighthearted and very funny at times, and no nudity or swearing needed so fun for all the family!


The Hamster being in a studio in the UK mocked up to look like he was next to the arena was a waste of time. But they'll be using his name to draw a few more viewers to the show.

I've now got it series linked on Sky+

The yank version which uses the same course btw is alot funnier, mostly due to the clever humour by the 2 presenters. Hammond sucked.

I started watching and after the fat ginger bird singing cheesy hawker songs, I turned it over to QVC for some entertainment!!

A very nice wimmin from ph called .........dennis was on it blond hair she was the only one to swear

*cough* 17th vic next

A very poor British attempt at Takeshi's Castle...Hammond doesn't come close to Craig Charles for commentary, although to be fair he doesn't have the crazy Japanese antics to pass comment on.

EddScott

My thoughts exactly. Hammond is starting to wear now. Quite the "Airtime *****" at the moment.

Takeshi's Castle was great!

Is that still on any channels? I haven't seen it for ages.

Hammond certainly doesn't add anything to the show!
I've watched the US version on Youtube in the past and found it very funny indeed. The UK version just lacked something. The people falling and hurting themselves was great then Hammond sapped the humour out of the show with his bits.

Does anyone think the girls are badly done to. Without wanting to sound sexist, alot of the course is strength biased. The first show had 3 male finalists.

f'ck 'em! They burned their bra for a reason now they've to live with it
