    Simon's fellow contestant Phil now volunteers for us at The Children's Trust! A thoroughly lovely man and a huge help to us in our work to help children with acquired brain injury and complex disabilities. Go Phil!

      Well, "Go Phil" indeed..hope he's still alive. I'm a little late.

    it's funny how Simon is the same person he is now. It shows he's genuine

  • @Reyneable
    @Reyneable 13 лет назад +35

    He was so soft-spoken! He was literally whispering. Also, when he smiled, his face crinkled up like a cheeky chap. Reminds me of Niall Horan. No wonder Simon has a soft spot for One Direction!

    I knew he was smart. I'm impressed with him even back then.

      @PH-pq3vq 3 года назад +6

      Yeah I'm really impressed with these videos of him at a younger age. There are some with him aged 20 which are very eloquent too

      He's not smart he's genius, he didn't even go much to School

    It's nice to know that Simon Cowell didn't always look like he got a hair cut from a ceiling fan.

  • @catman4471
    @catman4471 3 года назад +19

    Simon's cunning plan: 'If I'm going to conquer this industry, I'd better first find out what it's all about'. Smart guy, very smart guy.

    @Timtation69 17 лет назад +12

    Wow! Charming and adorable! Who'd a thought when I was all of 7 years old that this gentleman would grow end up being the entertainment mogul that would have a say in my fate! I love Simon Cowell! Just don't tell him that!

    Simon looks like a car salesman there.

  • @FizzySherbet
    @FizzySherbet 17 лет назад +27

    Definately him. Same voice. Same smile. Same full-of-himselfness. lol.

  • @edwarddrinkstea
    @edwarddrinkstea 15 лет назад +16

    he's so confident.

  • @pytko3
    @pytko3 15 лет назад +6

    So when they introduce him they say that he's a record company director. Even back then he was already big in the music business. Simon was about 30 at this time. Hey there's nothing wrong with go-cart racing a lot of people love it. He loves racecars, I've seen clips of him riding/driving them.
    Simon, you live life on the edge!

    No matter what country you live in, if your name is Peter Marshall, you're destined to be a game show host.

  • @angie4777
    @angie4777 17 лет назад +7

    simon is not dumb he happens to be one of the most influential and powerful television producers and record producers ever and he started at the bottom of the ladder to do it

  • @AvrgeAzn
    @AvrgeAzn 14 лет назад +5

    he looks so calm and cool.

  • @RememberRox
    @RememberRox 16 лет назад +18

    I got to admit, he in very handsome here :)

  • @alexanderpytko5394
    @alexanderpytko5394 9 лет назад +11

    This is 1990, so Simon was 31 at this time. Doesn't look much different, today. They said he is a record company director, which means he was in the music business even back then. So people who say that he knows nothing about singing should know he's been working in the music business for more than 25 years.

    • @mclarenguy22
      @mclarenguy22 9 лет назад

      Incredible, eh? In fact, I didn't even know he's a motor racing fan, actually, like I am!

    • @mclarenguy22
      @mclarenguy22 9 лет назад

      He is indeed, yes. In fact he was once named the highest-earning TV star by Forbes, in 2009. Oprah Winfrey is the richest, though.

    • @CharlieGV
      @CharlieGV 9 лет назад +1

      ***** But truth be told he's a pretentious, repellent and annoying person!

    • @ebojfmdboojoh4023
      @ebojfmdboojoh4023 6 лет назад

      Well he doesn't know anything about music. By his own admission he can't sing or can't play a musical instrument. He's never had any vocal training or studied music. He doesn't judge talent. All he does is assess who he thinks he can make money out of. Mostly in the music business it's about the image rather than the sound. He is very good at spotting trends and assessing what's likely to be popular. That is all.

  • @LSB16

    Priceless! They should show this clip on American Idol. He looked good!

  • @babyflufflepuff

    He looks a lot better dressed in a suit than he does in the sloppy t-shirts and jeans that he wears for television appearances now.

    • @vavacadoz

      He dresses casually now, how can you call it sloppy? This isn’t the 1960’s

  • @dancetilldead
    @dancetilldead 16 лет назад +5

    What an humble person he was here :)
    People might think he's an asshead, but they all play a character,Louis is the old one, Cheryl is the soft crybaby one and Simon the mean one. But Simon knows more than the others who might be a star.

  • @pytko3
    @pytko3 15 лет назад +1

    The announcer says that he's a record company director. So even back then, he was in the music business. This is like 20 years ago.

  • @Kittalia
    @Kittalia 17 лет назад +1

    He is utterly at ease with himself. A man that good looking has had to deal with all sorts of stuff - and not only does he deal - he's got a sense of humor. Watch him, at the very beginning, he takes a rude-ish (but veddy British) comment by the host and turns it into a joke on himself. This man is in command! Bravo!

  • @icemate09
    @icemate09 16 лет назад +2

    Oh man, yeah this probably haunts him haha. At least he won. He seemed a lot more shy back in the day (I mean obviously he wasn't going to insult people, but he just doesn't have the same presence)... Man, I just love that he was a normal guy who ended up working his way up. Respect.

    Peter Marshall also used to do the voiceover at the start of the original 70s show. He said "Meet now the man who pays the money for these bargains". It was the other guy who said "And now from Norwich it's the quiz of the week."

    The really difficult questions were answered by the other two.

    British game shows prior to the mid-1990s had never been known for their fabulous prizes. I believe the most given away on a single show prior to the limits being lifted was £6,000.

    What a career progression for Peter Marshall. First he was the voiceover who said "Meet now the man who pays the money for these bargains ..... Nicholas Parsons" to the person who was "the host" for the first TV appearance of someone we'd be better off without on our screens.
    I don't think Peter Marshall said "..and now from Norwich it's the quiz of the week"
