[TV] My family on Family Fortunes, early 1980's.

Gabbafella · Feb 21, 2018

Stumbled across this little gem. My family on Family Fortunes, 1988 so obviously some cracking hair and swanky clothes.
Worth watching purely for my Dad's answer during the final bit. It's up there with the most ridiculous things people say when under pressure.
Enjoy.

Sorry, title should read late 80's.

Which one are you then? David, Gordon or Bob?

None, I'm Gordon's son. Bob and David are my uncles.

I gave the same answer as your dad. It's the survey that's wrong. The mulligatawny stains on my trousers prove that.

Sorry, I thought your grandad was your dad and you were one of his three sons (if that makes sense).

Did you all go on holiday with the winnings?

Have you still got the snooker table?

I was only 11 at the time so I don't know the ins and outs of it, but the money became a bit of a sore point as far as I know. Lots of fighting over who was given what and people fell out.
Gotta love families.

I remember the good times said:

I assume my uncle still has it. I played on it quite a bit as a kid with my cousin.

Sounds about right.

Surely you just split five ways

Far too sensible an idea for my family to even consider.
Most people see 5 people, oh no, my family saw my Nan and Grandad as one person so they didn't deserve an equal share and my Auntie who was a stand by apparently deserved a cut simply for being there.
All fun and games.

Hopefully they made up?

At least they didn't have to split a speedboat.

No idea. I keep watching Jeremy Kyle with fingers crossed.

So....Bob’s your uncle?

Heads up, new series of the hugely entertaining and massive favourite All Star Family Fortunes starts tonight with new host Gino D'Campo. First weeks all stars are Arg from TOWIE and Loose Woman Denise Welch as they aim to win some great prizes for their families and money for charity.

Caught a clip of this on GoggleBox, when a young lady was asked “Things you brush”

“Floor” was the answer, local lockdowns are now making sense

Came across the non-celebrity version a couple of weeks ago - whoever thought Gino D'Campo would make a good gameshow host I assume is not looking for another job. I lasted around a minute before giving up.

Watched this Making of a few weeks ago. Interesting behind the scenes.
