Help me remember the name of this TV show please - 80's

[MycatsaPirate]

It was one of those Friday night late shows. Can't remember who hosted but can see his face in my head. Will know if someone says.

Had daft games on it, normally a bit juvenile and very generally quite shit.

This is completely vague but am hoping some suggestions may help.

I think Jack Monroe's fame is Jack Monroe's thing tbh.

Well I got The Word just from the description . First time I've ever been helpful on mumsnet

I used to love The Word. I kinda fancied Terry Christian. Also had a bit of a girl crush on Dani Behr. And Katie Pukrik, come to think of it.

The two most vile "pranks" for want of a better word were when one guy snogged his own grandmother and another vomited and ate it. Have never forgotten either for some reason.

Hollie he didn't snog his own grandmother. Just a random very up for it elderly lady. :o

I was thinking Sticky Monents with Julian Clary, but I'm sure you'd remember him.

It was on Worst of the Word, the clip you want...Not sure you'll find it. Originally on The Word.

Exactly Smeaton.

FireCrotch you're so right! I can see it in my mind as it happened. The Up For It elderly lady had this weird grin on her face as the young guy leaned in. Ahhhh.

It was horrendous. I was 15ish and thoroughly disgusted. I often wondered how they got her to agree to it.

I don't remember the kissing the grandmother one but am assuming it was the 'I'd do anything to get on tv' section? Does anyone remember the one where they had to lick someone's sweaty bellybutton? Truly gross (not envy)

What about eating pubes on a cream cracker....and that poor girl who got in a bath of cow shit with just her snorkel poking out! Think they were called the Hopefuls.

The cow shit girl was my mate!

I used to fancy Terry Christian
