Middle-aged lard arse cockneys try to put on the suit they wore on their wedding day.

The Weakest Link:
Chains are attached to each of Anne Robinson’s arms and legs and then each chain is attached to a maddened horse. The horses are then made to gallop off in four separate directions. Which link will be the weakest – the chains or the delightful Ms Robinson?

Wank of Mom And Dad:
Children are confronted by their parents who then confess they now wish they’d had a quick one off the wrist instead of the full sex that resulted in the conception of that child.

Little Angels:
A fly on the wall documentary about a dwarf motorcycle gang.

Silent Witness:
A Trappist monk is the only person who sees a brutal murder.

Talking Landscapes:
The hills are alive with the sound of whispering voices, and they are all talking about you. Run away!

Band on the Run – John has to choose between listening to Paul McCartney’s post-Beatles output at ear-splitting volume or fleeing and being hunted down by trigger-happy policemen.

Touch The Croc – same principle as Dale Winton’s short-lived Touch The Truck, but much more entertaining.

Extreme Cricket – vastly improved version played on a minefield. Electronic graphics highlight the position of each mine to create extra suspense for the home viewer.
