Going for gold

[foxyknoxy30]

Does anyone remember that mad programme on about lunchtime during the week with Henry Kelly called the above?what did they have to do again? I can still remember the theme song to this day?

It was brilliant wasn't it?!

Going for, going for GOLD!

I was always amazed that it wasn’t considered an advantage that the British people were getting the questions in their first language.

I loved it. Henry Kelly was a lovely man.

I was off work for six months with a neck injury and my highlight of the say whilst laying on the sofa was Going for Gold.

Cannot for the life of me remember what they actually did.

Ahh that's right they had contestants from other countries!

Ah, with all the different European contestants? Didiers and Helgas aplenty.
And working on the ridiculous principle that having English as a first language is of no advantage whatsoever when the questions are in English. And Henry Kelly.

Great stuff. So crap it was good.

Oops, crosspost with sideboard

Oh, I loved Henry Kelly.

Wasn't he on Classic FM or some radio thing too?

Did the song not go the game is on the time is right etc and all together going for gold!!!

The heat is on,
The time is right...

Ah I vaguely remembered a European connection but then wondered if I was just getting confused because it was on before Eldorado

Or something

Ahh simpler times kids today will never know the joy 😣

Ah happy memories!
