I've got to agree. When I was a kid, I thought bully was excellent. Looking back at the re-runs, I laugh my head off at the prizes. I also realise that Jim B was the best host ever. My kids dont see it, but I do. He had a great sense of humour and timing.
I know that they weren't to know but they risked and lost for a holiday. After a fortnight holiday they would only have had the physical prizes that they gambled anyway as a momento of their time on the show. I've always thought that a holiday as a quiz show prize isn't as good as physical prizes. After the holiday is over all you are left with are memories.
Peter Kay does a spot on impression of him when he does that. "Now Barry, before you whisk your lovely new wife, Julie, off to your honeymoon, it's over there in Barbados...LETS HAVE A LOOK AT WHAT YOU COULD HAVE MARRIED! OOH SHE'S FIFTEEN! SHE'S FILLIPINO! TAKE ER BACK BOYS! TAKER ER BACK!"
Thank you so much for posting this... I've been looking for it for years! Don was my uncle (sadly he died of leukemia about 12 years ago). I've downloaded this and I'll be posting it on Facebook for his wife and daughters to see - I was going to link straight to this page, but there are far too many negative, ignorant comments which I don't want them to see. Thank you again... form all the McIntyre family! :-)
Just seen this comment. Sad to hear about your uncles passing, but its great that he's still being watched to this day, even though he's now been gone 20 years or so. Nice that the family all got to see this legendary clip all together too.
I remember watching Jim do stand up - he did a bit about Bullseye and mentioned a couple that had gambled all their prizes...and lost. His reaction? 'Good job, you greedy bastards' 🤣🤣🤣
To be fair, that's a really nice star prize, even today. All the darts player had to do was to aim for treble 14 and I'm sure he would have got more than 40 with 3 darts
That holiday was worth nowhere near what a new car woud be worth back then though. Anyway they won £890 which is probably more than that holiday would cost in the early 80s.
£890 for themselves plus £730 for their charity (which also won Lionel Smith that season's Bronze Bully) - both of which are safe regardless of what happens next. Then to win every prize on Bully's Prize Board. I can't blame these guys for having a gamble. They probably never felt so lucky before.
Annoys me when people today comment on how crap the prizes looked. Yes, a few were but in the early 80’s items such as tumble dryers, microwaves etc were new technology and therefore expensive. Even the humble VCR cost a tidy packet.
Exactly. £100 worth of books. £100 in 1986 is the equivalent of £294 today and that's just one prize. They'd already got £800+ cash as well. Worth about £2,300 today. Not bad for a teatime gameshow. Add all the other prizes, factor in inflation, plus 2 villas in Corfu for 2 weeks and you're talking about a serious chunk of money all in.
Come back Jim,,we miss you! Great show and far better than the rubbish thats on these days. Don was unlucky, bit of nerves, they earned the right to gamble, both very good players. This isnt a few arrows down the pub,,lots of pressure with a TV audience. Its great TV!
With skills with a set of Darts like that that these guys would have been fools not to gamble! They could walk off with everything! Bully's special prize, all the stuff on the prize board and probably the star prize as well!
yes tony looks very dapper in his chalk blue double breasted blazer, this was really amazing winning every prize, it must have amounted to at least £95
Some of the comments here are so immature and overindulged. The world has changed right? In the 80s this is how it was, no Internet and not everybody had more than one TV! People might mock these guys for being greedy, but to me they just felt they were on a winning streak. That's what happens too when you gamble on a regular basis. I think as far as the Pro-Dart Player goes, he should aimed more around the left of the board. What a shame, but when I was a kid in the 80s, I loved the buzz of these people winning - why not?!
Hhhaaaaaaaaaahahahahaaaaaaaaaa That’s the funniest choke I’ve ever seen 😂😂😂😂 Cleaned up and even the non darts player set it all up and the dart played dropped his arse
Most products today are cheap chinese worthless gimmicks that simply do not last. Pound shops are full of them and so are super markets. Even the high end products are starting to be produced in China. And you are right all bought on credit.
@@Mathemagical55 not really, the top prize was worth about 10k quid in todays money, they never gave the contestants prizes anyway, they were always given the cash equivilent, Jim Bowen reveled it a few years ago
i know. i see Bullseye players do this ALL the time. They need 20 with three darts and end up scoring 7, when all they had to do was aim for 16,8,11,14,9,12 to guarantee the 20 points Can't believe how many Bullseye player lost by aiming for the treble 20 unnecessarily
That scooter is actually a really good prize, even now it would be, the Honda Vision bikes lasted a really long time, still seen the odd one going now.
there was another one where all 9 prizes were won and the couple gambled on the 101 or more with six darts and won the lot and the star prize by scoring 104 is this one on RUclips as well
I remember seeing this when it first aired. It served these guys right for being greedy. Had BFH (Bus Fare Home) been in force then, it would have been doubly painful for them. As it was, there was no sympathy for these two in my house that night.
The fact they were guaranteed £890 from the first two rounds was a big factor in their decision to gamble the prizes. Normally the winners would only win half of that. Clearly they were after the cash, not the prizes, and would have probably sold the prizes for cash value. Good job the star prize was a holiday that wouldn't be transferable.
RIP Jim Bowen, your wit, phrasing and sense of humour will be missed. One of a kind.

Did she have a Jim Bowen in her house as well?! 😂

"Look what you could have won." The biggest kick in the teeth a contestant could ever endure on a game show. 🤣
‘the most important decision you’ve made in your lives’
Hahaha gold isn't it.
I wonder if their wives have stopped mentioning this yet?
Ex wives.
Doubtful.
They won't stopped mentioning this in the afterlife.
Naww, some say, they are still not allowed in the house. 🤔🤪😂😅

Trouble is you can’t beat the story about the drunk Irish lads who,won £20
If that was me, I would take the prizes and run
3:47 Tony Green suddenly goes all camp
Tweeeeernty
The end of a beautiful friendship
Them losing at the end made it possible for the producers to have a budget to make the next series
I like the way Jim perked up when they bombed out, think he heaved a sigh of relief...
Like for Jim Bowen RIP... What a legend, and a bloody good bloke he was. :)
you can't beat a bit of bully, but a bit of bully can beat you
Picked up all of these prizes at my local car boot sale last week. Fiver for the lot! Ahahahaha! ; D
you overpaid
Definitely overpaid by a couple of quid.
You got ripped off matee
You overpaid by £4.99
The one time there was a half-decent star prize and this pair of eejits go and....
I loved the way bullseye used to rub it in what you could of won 😂😂
Doed anyone else have the same spontaneous urge to do a bit of local fly-tipping when they see that set of neatly presented "prizes"?
Lol!
'Remember what's gone Ray'. Yeah, thanks Tony, the fucking great lights help.
lol
They don’t do creases in trousers like that anymore, what a glorious age it was.

You have won the contents of this week's Lidl magazine
a battery trike with four wheels...lol
Aye. Quad.
They had a two-wheeled unicycle the following week
And a three wheeled quad the week later
The disappointed bull just rubs it in......LOL!
At least it saved them having to take it all to the tip a few years later .
£890 for themselves plus £730 for their charity (which also won Lionel Smith that season's Bronze Bully) - both of which are safe regardless of what happens next. Then to win every prize on Bully's Prize Board. I can't blame these guys for having a gamble. They probably never felt so lucky before.
Risking all 9 prizes makes little sense.
To be honest I'd have gambled just so I didn't have to take all that shit home
R.I.P Jim Bowen
A lovely sincere man.
Bowen couldn't wait to show them what they lost
That black & decker drills - blown a few of them up.
If only they'd said, we have had a lovely day Jim were going to take what we've already won.
Bloody hell! Fantastic!
should gone for 14 and 11, worst case is he would've need to hit an 18 with the last dart!
3:49 Tony Green sounds really camp when he says "and twenty".
"We've got nine crap prizes and we don't want ten crap prizes, so we are going to gamble."
A lot of people on here saying they were greedy. The whole point of the show was to win that coveted star prize.
The saddest moment ever captured on TV!
That's understating it hugely.
That's understating it hugely.
the wickedest thing since the crucifixion
The saddest episode is when they won the star prize and it turned out to be a load of clothes 😂. Got to have been the worst star prize ever
sad??? u mean u actually prefer it when they win?? all my family used to sit there hoping theyd blow it and lose the lot, cuz its ****ing hilarious!
Brilliant thanks for sharing ☺️
Incredible accomplishment, and then...
Looks like a pile of old trash when the prizes are placed together
Yes, but free trash.
@@professionalgamblers6277 I wouldn't want it even for free
I don’t know that scooter looked ok, don’t know about the 4 wheeled trike though
Looks like when I filled my car boot last week to go the tip 🤣
have to say that for over 35 years ago the prizes were really good.
no, even back then these 'prizes' were considered to be 24 carat shite
If i was the 'non darts player' I'd have battered him when they got outside
He was trying to be big man and hit treble twenty instead of playing safe
@@James-lm6wt Yeah total mistake
Love it when the non dart player beats his partner, then they lose everything.
My god they gambled all those prizes away (which would have been something in the 1980s) for the chance of a holiday.
what a let down, especially as the 'non-thrower' hit 61! never seen anyone win 9/9 before
Great show r.i.p Jim bowen
Super, smashing, great
Well that's the gamble ;)
2:56 , haha , the blue rinse mafia giving it some welly!!
I used to laugh when the special prize was a speedboat and the contestants came from a tower block somewhere in Birmingham.
hahahhahaha
Always thought the speedboat went to someone in Derby, whoever lived in the Birmingham tower block won a barbecue and a set of patio furniture.
They got cash alternatives! Interview with former Producer is on the net.

great show!
If they'd won they'd have been given a motorboat not a holiday, guaranteed!
I still watch this every single night....... And very single night... 11 o'clock....... Every night
100 quids worth of books!! yeah no gamble there money they took home prob covered most of those prizes!!! ha ha thanks for posting.
Aw watching this ruined my day. Used to love it when they gambled and won.
That was a disastrous gamble !
That Holiday looked unreal.
Would never have been the holiday had they won it.
Talk about rubbing it in " NOW HAVE A LOOK, HAVE A LOOK WHAT YOU COULD HAVE WON"!!
Come back Jim,,we miss you! Great show and far better than the rubbish thats on these days. Don was unlucky, bit of nerves, they earned the right to gamble, both very good players. This isnt a few arrows down the pub,,lots of pressure with a TV audience. Its great TV!
Jim can't come back. He's dead.

Listen to tony!
And 14 that's 51...
yes tony looks very dapper in his chalk blue double breasted blazer, this was really amazing winning every prize, it must have amounted to at least £95
Agnes at no.9 : "hiya Maggie, is it this sunday your Ray is on the telly winning all that money?"
Maggie : "Ray likes to watch the football on the other side ever since he bought the colour telly, but yeah, i think so"
the music on the star prize though wtf pmsl
Now that's a 9 dart finish
Yes including the "sunny holiday in Kabul"

Wow the dart player out of the 2 needs 40 and shoots trip 1 trip 1 single 20. I would have sucker punched him in the ball bag if I were his partner.
That was hilarious.
All them prizes back on telly. On the antique road show.
3.12 to 3.16, best DJ sample ever
@eclectica1 Its probably more of a case of remembering where the prizes you want are on the board
Hhhaaaaaaaaaahahahahaaaaaaaaaa
That’s the funniest choke I’ve ever seen 😂😂😂😂

No worries. Glad to be of some service.
Tony didn't get paid that episode 😂
3:40 definition of being Spursy
Unexpected. I thought they were going to win. 😢
They overthought it. Instead of playing for the big scores the second dart player should’ve just randomly thrown at the board
