If I'm not very much mistaken it was on one of Noel's Saturday Night light hearted little shows that a member of Joe Public had a one way bungy jump.
Genius.

Live death. It's the future but surprisingly never caught on.

Yep  Wasn't it live on TV, or is that a myth. I can't remember. Late Late Breakfast Show was it?

Was just reading about it... apparently it was a stunt man who undid his own harness and did a one way bungee. Noel was beside himself and took the show off the air, even though it wasn't the programmes fault. Or summit like that!
Fuck it, it's Christmas.

It wasn't live. He was picked live on air one Saturday. But he died in rehearsals for the following Saturday's live show. Which never aired.
Back to reality.

Nope. It was a hod carrier whose clip came undone. Still, a small sacrifice to the god of TV never hurt anyone. Except Mr Lush that is.

Whatever happened to Alan C? I know he was knocking on a bit, but I thought we had at least a few more years out of him until dementia took hold. And he did know more about sitcoms than everybody else on this forum put together.
