if you want more subscribers, maybe use someone who has a more lively voice. I don't mean to be rude, but the director has a boring slow voice
@@redheadedpsycho4566 --- I definitely see your point but, since I use channels like this one to help me sleep, boring and slow works for me. I have a feeling I'm in the minority, but I still hope they can fix it for the majority. Good luck to you.
uk death rates were wrong weve known this over a year
I didn’t know there was a UK version of this channel. Now I know where I’m spending my lazy afternoon
Funny how Piers Morgan can rant over people “being snowflakes”, but when HE faces the slightest scrutiny, he walks off in a huff … hypocrisy much? 🤔🤷♀️
Piers had raised in a interview, the reason for walking had nothing to do with being challenged but had been due to in he’s eyes not being allowed to have an opinion.
@@NeilPW-wx8qz it was definitely over being challenged. To say it was for not being allowed an opinion is damage control
@@NeilPW-wx8qz He was absolutely allowed the opinion. Just as that weather bloke was allowed an opinion on his conduct.
if you watched the show roguery you would know that this video distorts the truth and misses out crucial facts.
the morning you saw was the last straw of that other man constant abuse and playing the race card
@@NeilPW-wx8qzlol he didn't shut up about his opinion, he just didn't like to be challenged about it.
We used to tango each other as kids all the time and it did really hurt 😂😂
Kids these days don't know what they're missing!
Not much different from Morecambe tapping Wise's face.
@@WatchMojoUK our primary school actually tried to ban it
It was way before 2004 . Eary 90s if not late 80s.
@@keithgrainger8797 about 92/93
I remember watching Ghostwatch as a 13 year old. Scared the living crap out of me. I was totally convinced it was real up until the nonsense in the studio. Really entertaining though, especially as it was 10 years before Most Haunted hit our screens.
I was 11 or so and I remember the whole family were enthralled until the last 10 minutes.
That kind of spoiled it.
I was 12, i totally bought the whole thing until school the next day, then acted like i'd obviously known it was fake lol.
I was 10 when I watched Ghostwatch and I thought that it was real and I can still remember the ghost’s name it was Pipes and I remember the first time you saw something of him was a replay the did of an earlier part of the show where someone had seen that there was something behind the curtains while everyone was in the lounge (living room) but no one in the house picked it up at the time but someone in “production” or something like that had picked Pipes on the camera behind everyone behind the curtains. Then at the end when Pipes manages to possess Michael Parkinson (the male host) in the studio that really scared the shit out of me. And in my bedroom I had curtains that went all the way to the floor and for months I used to check behind the curtains before I went to bed
The scream that one of the actresses does is genuinely fucking spine-chilling.

Piers Morgan ruined his own career during that morning in 2021 on GMTV.
Obviously what is today's news is tomorrow's chip wrapper but moments like that aren't forgotten that easily.
I can't really see him appearing on BBC or ITV anytime soon.
A toddler throwing a tantrum sounds like an apt description for Piers Morgan.
You're thick. Beresford was outrageous.
I remember watching a Saturday morning children's programme that had Depeche mode singing let's play Master and Servant.
haha seriously?
@@WatchMojoUK It was the Wide Awake Club, on TV-AM. Tommy Boyd looked very awkward after their performance, and said something like "It's a bit early in the morning for that kind of thing".
Have you ever actually watched any of this TV ? Quite a few Saturday morning children's shows had adult content that shouldn't have been there .... Iggy Pop ... Slash .... and the lady who's name I forget with no knickers !! @@WatchMojoUK
16 was the best thing to happen to GMB
He’s a pathetic excuse of a man
Amen. Piers Morgan can go screw himself.
Janet Ellis was sacked from BluePeter for getting pregnant outside marriage.
That's just cruel
Yes, she had divorced her daughter Sophie’s dad and then got pregnant with her son and because she wouldn’t marry his dad, she was sacked.
nothing funnier than seeing Piers Twat Morgan being schooled by a weatherman then walking off like a 'snowflake'
I love the parody of the Richard Bacon incident by Armstrong and Miller. 'One of the dancers took me to the back of the club to see if i could help her get a job in the media...'
No Brasseye though? a show that ripped the piss out of the UK gutter press's moral outrage stories and pointless crusades? The Pedogeddon special was one of the most complained about programs in history
Nevermind the Tango adverts, they had a black bottle of Tango that had to be withdrawn, because they exploded on shop shelves. 😁
and not recyclable also!
Two other shows sprang to mind while watching this: 1) ’Ghostwatch' reminded me of Paul Daniels 'Iron Maiden' stunt on his live Halloween special. Once again, the BBC switchboard was jammed with calls out of concern for Paul. Ironically, Daniels schemed it up in the aftermath of 2) the tragic death of the member of the public who was invited to perform a stunt on Noel Edmonds 'The Late Late Breakfast Show’, just months before. The show was understandly cancelled and Noel spoke candidly about how it affected him.
i vaguely remember the Daniels stunt.
Two of the red triangle broadcasts were two banned violent episodes of The Professionals, which didn't appear unedited on DVD until years later. As a fan of that show I taped them. Now I have the DVD box set with all the episodes restored, which have never been shown unedited or sometimes at all on television.
The Sweeney has shared the same fate, because what you see on television, is not what was originally shown in the seventies and early eighties.
@julianaylor4351: ITV4 cuts The Sweeney, I remember when it was repeated on the then new station UK Gold in the 90's which was for BBC and the former ITV franchise, Thames Television and it showed those scenes and language that ITV now cuts because its not PC. They should leave it as it is, its what the 1970's were like, the DVD sets of course will be the full non PC versions as they were as the VHS versions I had of a couple of episodes. There is this one scene in The Sweeney episode "Abduction" the one where Jack's daughter is kidnapped, because he has got to close to some robbers dealings, this scene where Jack Regan [ the much missed John Thaw ] is talking to his informant, this old guy and is being watched by I think the robbers and two women walk by him and the old guy, and one of them is wearing a white pleated gymskirt and she bends down and shows her pants and Jack is watching her and his informant says to him " I could be arrested for what you were thinking" and Jack just smirks and says "You could" and walks away and then see from afar the robbers wind the window up and the two women are just walking towards the camera. That was cut to just the robbers winding up their window. In the same episode George and Jack are interviewing Wanda Ventam and she calls them Bastards and that word is cut. That's about the only swear word that was said on TV, in cinema they had more freedom which is why the second film Spinoff of the series [Sweeney 2 from 1978 filmed 1977 ]you hear John Thaw say the F word, but on National Television that word was not used in the UK until the 90's. I don't give flying whatever's that the series was non PC, I was born the year it broadcast - they should leave it alone uncut and show what it was like in its non PC glory, not cut it. Its the reason why I haven't watched The Gentle Touch repeats on ITVX [ and I was fan of the show when I watched on the old channel, Granada Plus, I was too young to watch it when it originally broadcast ] because I know they will cut that too and ruin a great programme because again for non PC language or behaviour of which was of its time.
@@jane1975 I was watching the uncut episodes late at night, as a teenager, the only way to be these episodes uncut is an anniversary DVD box set. When you consider that the Sweeney films were much more violent than the television series and that the series itself, is far less violent than many modern horror movies, it's really just double standards because some people want to whitewash the past. Wanda is Benedict Cumberbatch's mother. The uncut DVD box sets are really all that's left off the real thing, you can find through companies who sell old films and television shows on DVD, it was also how I got hold of the uncut version of John Boorman's Excalibur, which a violent telling of the Arthurian legend. Get your trousers on... you're nicked. 😁
7:00 Mel is so ott with her phoneyness, it gets on my last nerve. 🤮
That Inbetweeners episode is a certified classic
Haha facts
Hitchens was right.
Damn right he was!
He was!
Yes 🙌
Loved Hitchens
Anyone interested in finding out how right he was (spoiler alert: he was completely right) should watch Penn's take on her. He did an entire episode of his show about what a monster obsessed with sufferring she was. She caused more suffering than she alleviated because she believed it was a gateway to Jesus. Fuck her
Ghost Watch traumatised me but then I was only a child.
Took me years to realise it was fake 😂 I’m sure my parents told me but still.
Thanks a lot Peaky, Craig and Sarah.
Lol Piers Morgan really does not like the truth
To be fair, Meghan and Harry don't either! 🤷♀️
I really don't know how folk didn't realise that Ghost Watch was fake. I only saw a couple of minutes and could tell with bad acting.
I thought the whole CBB Roxanne Pallette would have been on here. I thought she was the reason that series was cancelled.
How she still has a career we'll never know
Well, and I'm surprised there wasn't any from Big Brother period
I remember the Tango campaign, school kids running around slapping ear drums LMFAO.
Been Tangoed still got hearing problems. Fun times
"Number 13: Wank Week"
HUH?! I actually froze for a second lol (I'm from America so I've never heard of basically any of these incidebts and this one in particular caught me off guard.)
The stories of kids ending up in A&E weren't unsubstantiated. Source: me, who got smacked on both ears Tango-style bursting both my eardrums by one of the other kids in my year, and it ended up going to a magistrate's court and all I got for it was 40 quid. :|
the cheek of them to deny that you know when you've been tangoed
Bro got hardcore tangoed
You’re not a source. You’re a random commenter on RUclips. Meaning you have no reason to believe anyone would see this as substantiating. Sincerely, a titanic survivor. Unless you can link the story, which it would have an article at the very least if it went to court.
What about the 2007 phone-in scandal?
David, I am absolutely in love with your accent and dialect. ❤
3:00 He went into the fridge. It was NOT a farce. That was true.
Isn't Jimmy Saville the biggest TV scandal? And of course it was the BBC, as usual.
Angus Deayton leaving HIGNFY had everything to do with Paul Merton. I just watched the episodes after the the scandals broke and while Ian Hislop had a dig, Merton was out for blood in them.
So did Paul Merton make him snort coke and carry on with sex workers? 🙄
Yea Paul really didn't like him did he? Perhaps he really did shag his wife.
Loved deayton as a host, show wasn't the same
Of Course Merton was out for Blood... It was HILARIOUS! You treat it like Merton had some kind of Vendetta against Deyton... But they are good friends even to this day. Merton Himself had been subject of several "Newsworthy Stories" which Deyton ripped him a new arsehole over... So when the "Squeaky Clean" Angus Deyton was caught with his pants down, Quite Literally might I add... Of Course Merton was going to go hard!
And when I say "Squeaky Clean" Image... I am of course referring to Viewers who only knew Angus Deyton from being a BBC Host... Angus Deyton is very well known for his rather Blue Comedy, Being one of the Group "The HeeBeeGeeBees", But all this predates his BBC career and many don't know that part of his past!
Nah, he can't be critiquing people and holding them to account while having hook ups with call girls in hotel rooms and snorting coke while married, supporting organised crime through drug use isn't a good look for the presenter of the tv equivalent of Private Eye.
The BBC got rid of Deayton as it wasn't a little boy/girl and therefore he went against the norms and morals of the BBC.
You mean to tell me that our beloved BBC:
that had all those deviants working for them (Savile, Chris Langham, Victor Melleney, Mark Page, Ben Thomas, Chris Denning, etc) ,
that banned people like John Lydon for even making comments about hearing that Savile is into all sorts of seedy things,
where Savile's perversion was apparently well known and considered an open secret,
where Jill Dando allegedly raised concerns about a pedophile ring there,
who referred to grooming and statutory rape as a "sexual relationship" in a headline,
and whose Broadcasting House is adorned with a staute of a naked young boy and an old man that was sculpted by a known pedophile, that it has constantly refused to have removed,
is a bit noncey?
You're right.
I remember watching Ghost watch when I was a kid. We thought it was great 😂😂😂
I did like the 'blood rushing to this head now part'!
6:45 I smoked 2g of crack from 15:20 to 22:40 then took heroin (I got 14g but didn’t take it all) from 23:00 to 5:00 yesterday and this morning but I’ve never snorted coke off a tortoise’s shell before like Richard Bacon 🥓 😂😂😂
Angus Denton brought it on himself.
He could have been big hosting more Tv shows other than “Have I got news….” and “Would I lie to you”
Hitchens was and is a lengend.
Hitchins was a genius and shed light on a horrible woman
I remember see Ghostwatch when it was on. Had to have the subtitles on due to noise in the house. Obvious straight away that it was all pre recorded, and not live, when the words were coming up on screen before they were spoken.
10:48 yes I remember in school slapping people round the face (using both hand like in the advert) and shouting “you’ve been Tangoed”. It first started off doing to boys who were drinking Tango or just having a can in their hand. But it soon turned into slapping boys round the face and saying “you’ve been Tangoed” without them drinking/holding a can of Tango, most of the boys were doing it. The whole “you’ve been Tangoed” phase went on for months with the most common way to get someone was to come up behind usually when they were talking to people as it was “funnier” when 3 or 4 people saw it, then you’d call their name and you’d slap them when they turned around. In the end the teachers were handing out week long detentions for it and every break/recess except lunch you had to stay in and write lines like “I must no hit my fellow students” on 2 pages of A4 paper front and back
I love how he said "the brains" at EastEnders... like they have any🤣🤣🤣🤣
The Inbetweeners scene was a classic
2004? For Orange man??? I left school in 1994 and it was a thing then so...???? - ''Orange Man is a British television advertisement for the soft drink Tango Orange. Created by advertising agency HHCL (Howell Henry Chaldecott Lury and Partners), a longtime collaborator of Tango. The advertisement was produced in 1991 and aired in 1992,'' - A lot of these dates are not accurate at all.
White-haired lass with the eye makeup in the Bill Grundy bit? Siouxsie Sioux.
Getting tango’d is a rite of passage. If you’ve not been tango’d by the time you’re 15, they take away your passport 🫤
Mother Teresa was evil, though. As was Ghandi and Columbus. I despise how no one is allowed to speak on the fatal flaws of these figures. Clone High was taken down and redone for the same reason.
I remember Sean Lock on a panel show talking about how Ghandi would sleep with teenage girls in order to test his own purity. I assumed he was making a joke (definitely the kind of story Sean Lock would make up for laughs), but was shocked to find out years later that this is actually true.
@ Sure you can. You can talk about anything. The proof is just unbiased truth about a lot of things but it changes nothing. Look how the US still has Columbus day. He was a gross, evil man but he still gets a National holiday. Just like these two are still held in high enough esteem to be cherished and spoken of fondly on lists of great people.
But the amount of things that you will find on who they actually were is tiny and not pushed enough for people to find the information without searching for it.
I don’t understand the whole “que jumping” controversy. It’s really not that serious lol. They’re press why would they wait 20hrs in a line to look at a casket and then tell people about how they looked at a casket ?
It's more perplexing they would queue to pay respect to a dictator. The royals still run the country. They're the head of state for a reason. The king is at least.
I think Richard Bacon one was so stupid and drawn out of proportion, he didn’t deserve to be fired over something so mundane. BBC are going on like other people haven’t done the same thing or even worse, and still were able to keep their jobs
I wouldnt be surprised if Savile was behind Minipops
That Q gate thing was ridiculous. They were photographed a few meters away from the coffin, obviously having slipped into the crowd near the front, then offered this convoluted explanation to try and convince us that we didn’t see what we saw.
They moved slightly away from the press area? This proved anything to you? Loooool. It wasn’t that deep. People were being pathetic since he came out. You’re a perfect example of how silly it all sounds.
@@kirstybrown1185 looooooooooiool.
Nope 👎
I remember watching ghost watch, back in the day
If anyone fell for it......they were clearly so dense their complaints should have been ignored.
The "tango" thing, people did end up hurt, someone at my school get their ear drum punctured, or something along those lines. The Kids at my school were all doing it,, but hitting you on the ears, instead of the face.
I imaginer similar things happened a round the Country, which is why the Advert was banned.
Perforated ear drum or something like that? A bit like the PE teacher that got hit by a javelin. These stories get exaggerated it was all good fun, spoilt by the “powers”
What is the song at the beginning of the video? It's a banger!
1:31 inside number 9 did a similar thing with their live episode ‘going wrong’ and ‘supernatural’ stuff happens. I’m pretty sure it was inspired by ghost watch
It seems like Channel 4 love, pushing the buttons
That they do
The Angus Deaton one was funny though (His final episode, I mean) He went out in style, that's for sure.
0:41 - 0:50 You mean it wasn't 'Threads'! 😮
Should've been. Still cannot watch it a second time.
What a great film. Bloody devastating but still punches above its weight even today
Piers Morgan and James Corden should be expatriated 😂😂😂
Hells angel was NOT a scandal. It was Hitchens ravaging sacred cows.
Ghost Watch was the worst.. I was 13 at the time, my parents hadn't seen any of the warnings about the program not being real, and where as the acting was terrible, there were trusted members of TV that only did real life stuff, not drama.
I was scared stupid, even my mum was rattled.
Ghostwatch was one of the best paranormal thats ever aired in the UK..I had just moved in to my very first apartment with my girlfriend..
I was always a big paranormal fan, but this took it to another level. It seems quite tame nowadays but it had 75% of the viewers terrified, according to the stats after the show.
When my partner an i went to bed after the show we were still terrified. Next min i heard this rumble on top of my wardrobe, and the door of the wardrobe was wide open. My girl asked me to get out of bed and shut the door, i was too scared to do so but i did then bolted across the room back into bed. Then the rumble started again. My girl was hyperventilating during this, then the door opened slowly again. both of us were cuddling each other out of fright.. 10 mins later i had to get up and close the door, this time i put my hand along the top of the wardrobe, this time i found a golf ball.
This was what was making the rumble noises as it rolled about the top of the wardrobe.
Ill never forget that night, Ghost watch was the icing on the cake.
A boy committed suicide after mistaking the central heating noise to ghosts in the house.
All in all it fucked me and a few others for a few days.
Great stuff BBC.
is on dvd and blu ray now lol
I dont like Piers Morgan, but to be berated and talked down to buy the fucking weather man, doing nothing but trying to further his career...i dont blame him for walking off.
Minipops, When Kids singing famous song with their own style. I believe this was the Wildest British TV Scandals Imo.
Saw original Ghostwatch. It was awesome. Best TV ever.
A program with little girls dancing sexily in scanty clothes?
Today that could be a Netflix show .....
I blame Alex Beresford for Piers Morgan walk out GBM
I would have thought for sure the Jimmy Saville cover-up by the BBC would have taken the number 1 spot... And it's not even here.
Saville has be number 1
Calling cilla black a national treasure debatable
She was a vile woman.
@@maverickhistorian6488 things she did made me sick
@@mattalan6618 My sister was her Late husband's district nurse, incidentally he was a lovely man by all counts. Cilla was a control freak and an absolute tyrant, who enjoyed insulting and belittling other people. She forgot where she came from and who she was, she became an arrogant snob. Wherever she is now, I sincerely hope it is dark and lonely and her Late husband doesn't have to suffer her presence for eternity.
Ghost watch scared the shit out of me my mum was telling me course its not real didn't believe her as i was 12 😂
What about all the controversy about Frankie Boyle on Mock The Week, particularly Rebecca Adlington?
Considering this idiot can’t even get the names right, it’s probably a good thing he didn’t mention Frankie as he might mistake him for Frank Sinatra 🤦🏻♂️
Mini pops - how do ’I Love Rock n Roll’ and ‘A Little Peace’, have sexual undertones to them ?!!!
Ghostwatch wasn't exactly terryfying, it was complained about because they led people to believe it was true when it wasn't. People do not like being lied to, but it was hardly a scandal.
I dunno people still vote for the tories 😂
@@tomwhite916 And just a strange for Labour too.
@@Thurgosh_OG Not sure Labour and the Tories are remotely comparable at the moment. The Tories seem to lie for fun.
Didn't someone commit suicide after watching the show, and somehow the show got the blame.
@@JackBarrBaxter You're right, there is no comparison. The Labour party is only the second political party in UK history to be officially investigated over accusations of racism after it received more than 600 complaints of antisemitism both from and against it's own members. It also wanted to implement women only train carriages (segregation) and attempted to charge people different prices for tickets to an event based on their race alone.
As for lying for fun, have you ever listened to Sadiq Khan? If you were to tell him he could stand where he is and tell the truth or run a mile and tell a lie, he would be off like a shot.
You got that wrong. It wasn't his wife that was coughing it was the other guy. His wife coughed once when the other guy hesitated
I was under the impression they both were doing it, not just one of them.
The host wasn’t married to Diana either 🤣🤣
Tbf, this is the known story. I’ve never once read this, it was always a mix of both and this isn’t a Wikipedia page. It’s pretty obvious they won’t include every slight occurrence in a story.
Tequin Whittock was the other contestant charged in the cough- cheating scandal. He was the main focus of the coughing, but the Major's wife was also accused on one or two of the questions.
The late late show with Noel Edmunds
You Crown Kissers get wound up about some stupid things.
He should have been in prison, not in the jungle.
Tv was more important back then before RUclips. Now RUclips is the new TV.
The Angus Deaton issue was partly some behind the scenes heat between him and a couple of others (most notably Paul Merson) More of a factor was he had been delegitimised as hosr - when the point of the show was to interrogate guests on the show and politicians in general, it was going to be tough to do that with this hanging ober him,
Anyone with half a brain knew that the Michael Parkinson ghost episode was just a spooky nonsensel.
Did the people who put together this list think that Jimmy Savile was even too scandalous for this list, or did they think what he did was totally normal?
People get upset that we put it in all our lists
@@WatchMojoUK not upset, just surprised
@@WatchMojoUK I'd be one. We know what he looks like and we know what he did. Personally I don't want to see that horrible face or be reminded of how he got away with his crimes. So thank you for NOT showing him!
@@WatchMojoUK People getting upset is THE reason to put it on your lists!
The tango man was classic 😂 one of the best adverts of all time.
WatchMojo have clearly never heard of Jimmy Saville … 😅🤦♂️
Ghostwatch has been shown since. I've seen it and remember it, I wouldn't have remembered it when it was first shown.
ummm... I remember Fridgegate very differently to that. it involved a soufflé I believe.
Fucking hell mini pop’s is nothing compared with what they are doing with kid’s today 🏴
Ulrika Johnston lied and ruined John Leslie's career that should be on there somewhere
The Angus scandal wasnt so much about what he did, it was about the role he played on the show. He was there to ridicule celebs and comment on other people's scandals. His departure was ultimately for the future of the show
ha ha u said anus. ha ha
I was 17 at the time and even I knew ghostwatch was fake as hell. The acting was crap 😆😆😆
Come on guys, was he called Charles or Chris? Derr!
Ghost Watch haunted me as a child it was the recent day War of the Worlds
10:05 he wished he was on in the box with them.
There's so much harmful rhetoric around benefits... Benefits St just help cement that in public psyche.
With regards to Blind Date, the journalist got off easy as you don't fuck about with Scousers, she got off lightly with Cillas calling out.
Ghost watch was great , just like dead line from inside no9 or as I call it ghost watch part 2 lol
20 is so well known that we as Americans have heard of it
OMG! Prince Andrew has been so downgraded in the Royal family that he had to queue up with us commoners to view his own mum as she’d laid in state! Seriously I had to rewind the clip at the beginning because I actually thought it was old Andy in the queue there lol the dude looked like him so badly
The scary thing would have been a ghost would choose to be inside ‘parky’
What annoys me most about No.1 is that ITV cried foul and called it cheating as though they only had a single million to give away and that the Ingrams had cheated the other contestants the chance to win it.
Considering the total amount of money given away during the shows originall run, getting annoyed at someone gaming the system is just petty.
It's like when Casinos get annoyed at people winning huge amounts of money and claiming cheating even though the odds are stacked in their favour.
It's a contest of individual knowledge. Trying to cheat that is wrong. I can understand why they tried it, but they got caught, plain and simple. ITV were within their right to not pay out.
The whole "queuegate" thing was ridiculous. There's people living in poverty, yet people were more upset over two overpaid tv presenters jumping a queue to see a dead rich woman 🙄
In a list of TV scandals, you're not going to find that many truly upsetting ones. It's only TV after all.
But I agree that even in that list, this scandal was a storm in a glass of water (don't know if that expression exists in English).
@@FlyingFox86that phrase doesn't really exist in English (or at least in my circles).
We do have "storm in a teacup" though which means exactly the same thing
@@Kanbei11 I should have guessed the English version would be tea based.
Holly Willoughby says "Please know that we would NEVER jump a queue."
Whilst watching footage of her and Philip JUMPING THE QUEUE at the queen's funeral.
So, not only a queue jumper, but a liar as well, and demonstrating she has no respect for anyone, from the general public to royalty!
As did the rest of the press. People just didn’t care. They wanted to go for 2 people. Weird behaviour from adults. Did you watch the other press entering? So that you can explain how they were supposed to go in or did you just be super gullible and believe nonsense?
@@kirstybrown1185 When you get caught doing something wrong, do you say, "Other people were doing it too" ?
Of course you do, because you don't take responsibility or accountability for your own actions.You're the same kind of person as Holly and Phil.
Just because someone else did it as well, is irrelevant, they still did something wrong.
Your comment is stupid, irrelevant and nonsensical, Dummy.
I was 10 when I watched Ghostwatch and I thought that it was real and I can still remember the ghost’s name it was Pipes and I remember the first time you saw something of him was a replay the did of an earlier part of the show where someone had seen that there was something behind the curtains while everyone was in the lounge (living room) but no one in the house picked it up at the time but someone in “production” or something like that had picked Pipes on the camera behind everyone behind the curtains.
