Dunno, do you not remember that taxi driver who got interviewed in bbc studio because of the confusion they thought he was a correspondent for business tech. Link below if you don’t 😂 ruclips.net/video/jhv9HJaA67c/видео.html
@@mrsusan5672 who knows I think I’d like to just continue thinking it wasn’t, I mean just think about what happens when the bloke gets home to his wife and they sit down for dinner. 👩🏼💼”So hunny did you have a good day at work in the taxi?” 👨🏿🦲”Well you know I had the strangest day……….” 👩🏼💼”Ohh wait shh shh, hold on a minute the news is just coming on, tell me after ok….I’m wanting to hear this interview that’s coming up.”
Brilliant stuff ... Des mentioning 'in the professional manner that we do' at the perfect moment. I thought it was too good to be true when Des said, 'Let's see that again'. Then I found out it WAS too good to be true!
@@mudhut1967 absolutely fake. It’s the BBC!!! If this shit was real, they’d make damn sure nobody knew about it.....you know, just like Jimmy Savilles seedy antics.
My favourite hoax was on " Nationwide" and was about a local authority which built a school upside down. It was believed because the story centred on an inept council...very believable. But the most interesting hoax centred on a government research station cloning DINOSAURS. This was in the 1970's BEFORE "Jurassic Park " was written. Wonder if the programme inspired the book???
The good ole days of afternoon sport, the vidiprinter and that unwashed guy doing the racing, the one with funny arm signals who looked like he was on day release from the spacca society.
Am Surprised the BBC would do such a thing like that . Aren't thet suppossed to be the posh lot ? Would have thought that sort of thing would have been left to ITV
Lol when he said "backed up by our highly our highly professional team"
you could see the slight grin on des's lips right just after he's hearing what's happening behind him in his earpiece...lol
It is a tradition to watch this every April Fools Day.
Big up my man Des Lynam always and forever
0:49 the smile while rewatching the fight😂💯
If only the BBC still had a sense of humour like this.

@@ubertroopertv1557 Not gonna lie, I was half expecting that to be a rick roll! But thanks for the reminder, that was brilliant! Was it legit?

they still do.
Or that time when the BBC interviewed a dog in the studio.
"But in the great tradition of television sport....let's just see that again" 😆
1:17 “Well, apparently, there were no serious injuries, no cut eyes, we maybe even found an opponent for Gary Mason.” 😂😂😂
One of the best things I've ever seen on live TV. April Fool's Day.
Brilliant stuff ...

Way back, when fake shit was funny. The good old days...
Fake?

@@sirlaughsalot1977 it's April fool, see the end
'... our highly professional team.' - superb comedy timing from Des!
I recall a mate saying that the Beeb should never have revealed that it was a prank.
I’m sure when Des says “quite remarkable” he’s channelling Spitting Image’s impressions of David Coleman

old days were class
nah more like ass
"It was absolutely quite remarkable there"
David Coleman would be proud.
seahawk124 oh I miss Colemanballs!
DES was always the professional
Des lynam didn’t even notice that there’s a fight going on behind him
0:27 was the best part
While the fight was on, he just had to say "We'll continue to deliver the sport you like, backed up by a highly professional team" didn't he? xD
This should be done more often! Brilliant.
'April Fool'? Who knows? Could just be covering up the fact that it was a real barney!
I remember me and my bro falling for this!
I actually do remember watching this on BBC grandstand when I was eleven years old in 1989...I must admit was in Stitches...lol
jaws must have dropping everywhere when first shown
Should have stuff like this more often in programmes.
Saturday 1st April 1989, I'm pretty sure.
Des legend lineham! That was really quite remarkable! 🤣
The only opponent Gary Mason has seen lately was the truck
I like the way how people behind the Grandstand studio have shown the 'April Fool' sign at 1:23.
why is television so boring today... I wish the old times back
Really I was fooled!
Yes, very well done!
Greatest April Fool joke ever...
Try it nowadays and Health and Safety would go nuts.. They'd all be in high vis vests and hard hats!. LMFAO!.
that's not true at all
Simply superb.
I remember watching that live !
That was great I remember when they did that.
Excellent
Action replay is a nice touch
Brilliant Dave
'highly pro team'
What legends
All fighting over who gets the last dougnut
Doesn't look like no holds barred unarmed combat
Lol, I was born April 1st
This was shown on Have I Got News For You tonight.
Backed up by our highly professional team 🤣😆😂
it looks as if it was a joke fight thats why des says backed up by a highly professional team
Haha I love the deadpan action reply very funny
April twenty three, did you end up the April fool? 😅🤣😂🙄🇬🇧🇬🇧
Looked real at first...and sounded like life in general
Seen this many times only now found out it was april fools, slightly disappointed
It's Ronnie Pickering!
lol Ronnie Pickering makes that look tame
Genius!
Quality!!!!
Superb
i demand a slow mo action replay :)
This is hilarious 😁👍
It would have been funnier without revealing the end. of it,
I remember this s**t when it happened. LOL.
April 1 1989 and i was fooled as well ! (even though it was after 12).
April FOOLs!
'Grandstand' was usually broadcast after mid-day. This particular one certainly was. 'April Fool's Day' only counts in the morning.
It was recorded in the studio in the morning and then played out "as live" later.
Most of the famous TV "April Fools" jokes have been after noon, the famous "Spaghetti Trees" on Panorama for instance.
April 1st if memory serves me well!!!
Aye golden moment. Made me laugh
Highly professional team showing how to get into a rugby scuffle
1st April 1989
haha loved it
Duxbury!!!
LMAO!..That was brilliant! Nice job guys! :D
@ucla4eva - Grandstand's finished because. All the sport BBC used to show is being shown by Sky Sports.
Love it👌🏻😂
was this wrestling coming to bbc
@ucla4eva I'm afraid not - it finished 4 years ago - just 2 years short of being 50!! :(
This was an April fools joke 😎
@ucla4eva sadly it finished some years back and i use to love watching it too
and as for des he has gone to another channel
Ah the brilliant Des Lynham 🤣
Classic! 😂
was it the youtube footage?
do u think?
did the description "April fool joke on the BBC Sports show Grandstand" give it away
jesus...
thats life and newsround used to have april fools day prank features and they where BBC products
Hilarious miss this stuff..
Im sure that was an April Fools prank at the time?
I couldn't see anything apart from the moustache
As Malcolm Tucker might have said, that looked like the super-gayweight title fight!
Where's the handbags ?
April Fools!!
With all due respect, watch the full video and you'll find out.
Hilarious!!
April fooo-ool!!!!!!!!!
whatever happened to Des?
The good ole days of afternoon sport, the vidiprinter and that unwashed guy doing the racing, the one with funny arm signals who looked like he was on day release from the spacca society.
Haha brilliant. Go The Beeb!
he was given a wrong result and didnt like it lol
Back when everyone was Dave and had a tass
isn't the guy from countdown dead
Did anyone get Sacked?
Should have been on World of Sport, then we could have had Kent Walton commentating on it.
Makes up for the BBC not covering the wrestling!
Monty Python could not have done it better.
well.. duh!
Am Surprised the BBC would do such a thing like that . Aren't thet suppossed to be the posh lot ? Would have thought that sort of thing would have been left to ITV
