Bullseye repeats on Challenge.

They should bring it back. Still don't know why they Dave spikey for the relaunch.

Should have bought Jim back.

He's had a number of strokes, so walking and talking has been a real challenge for him in recent years.

Poor chap.

I used to love Bullseye, the prizes seem laughable today!

I still enjoy watching re-runs of The Crystal Maze, and so do our kids, oddly enough. I had read there may be a modern version on its way.

A few weeks ago I saw this episode repeated

I suspect they won't be repeating this episode

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3x3dH3B2zsM

I find Bullseye strangely compelling viewing.

That's brilliant!

My dad always used to wonder why people didn't aim for that corner - OK, so you can't get the treble 20, but the numbers surrounding 19 are higher scoring than those around the 20.

Never been a big TV fan but I always used to love a bit of bully.

Did it ever win a Bafta?

Didn't know that. Two strokes in 2011 and another in 2014.

There was a legally-imposed £6000 limit on prizes, wasn't there?

That rings a bell anyway

Blimey!

I like one of the comments below the video.

Keep out of the black and into the red, nothing in this game for 2 shots in the head.

The reason I knew about this case was I read this book on kindle - if you like true crime it's well worth a read.

Very of it's time

I saw one of the earliest episodes before Xmas, quite the eye opener.

Jockey Wilson throwing for charity while smoking a fag
Fur coat and Cigars as prizes on the prize board

Oh, and two of the contestants were unmarried blokes. Lots of innuendo insinuating that they were in a relationship!

Bet they were gutted with Bully's Star Prize that week.

[Trabi601]

Back on again... the prize board.

Directors' chairs, crystal rosebowl, decanter set, 'designer sports equipment'.
