Agreed. Back then it was focused on satire and had a much harder edge, not least due to the constant risk of lawsuits. Now it's safe light entertainment. As well as Deayton's departure, it's move from BBC 2 to BBC 1 signalled the end of its golden age.
@@abitmoredeayton the bbc have weird standards. "screwing kids is fine but don't do coke with whores" i'm surprised we never saw him again though. i personally lost count of the lines i did as a younger i would hate for that to of ruined my livelihood.
thanks for the good quality...cheers
Far more entertaining then than it is nowadays. Far more material included, far more slick and far better host IMHO.

Deayton should have kept it in his trousers then
@@markc8956 Why? He's a TV presenter, not the Pope or an elected leader.
Seeing "bringing Boris to book" in the background and having to remind yourself that it's Yeltsin not Johnson they're talking about.
Here's hoping....eventually will be.
Surprisingly good pronunciation in russian from Angus.
He's a linguist, so there is a beginning to his talents(!) Don't mean to be harsh, I miss Angus a lot.
Thanks for posting.
Only here for Angus ...

Missed the opportunity for a dig at JS. Went for MJ instead.
what happened to the host of this show?
He was fired because he did cocaine and "accidentally" slept with a prostitute
*Allegedly.

Disgusting quality!!!
If Hattrick is not going to release an official boxset with a higher quality of the show,this is what you're going have to get used to it sorry 🙇♀️
I thought the jokes were quite good.
Its free.
Funny way to spell "Thank you for taking the trouble to upload these", but have it your own way.
