Tags: It's a Knockout Game Show – Made My Sides Ache !
Does anybody remember ‘It’s A Knockout’ on the good old BBC in the 70’s? What a treat that was for the whole family. It’s A Knockout was compulsive viewing in our house. The whole family would get real comfy around telly and delight at the stupid games, water fights and of course those hilarious Giant characters nodding about with stupid expressions on their faces.
The interest and great laughter came from the cleverly inventive Knockout games such as: Elastic Bungee runs, Greasy Poles, Water Fights, Water Slides, Slippery Turntables, Giants in Costumes and more. All of course with some good old BBC Gunge thrown in. Loved it!
Of course we had the local regional heats first, traipsing across merry old UK in the winter weather in some forsaken farmer’s field maybe! It’s a knockout would then go on to the European version for summer viewing (a much better idea), which I think as called “Jeux Sans Frontières”, which if my French serves me well means something like “Games Without Borders”… all in the interests of better Euro-relations. But we still wanted to stuff the rest didn’t we !!
A friend told me that It’s A Knockout actually started in the late 1960s in black & white but became a top show in the early 70’s. The main compere I remember was Stuart ‘Mad as a Hatter’ Hall, running around like a demented pixie and laughing hysterically at the contestants antics. He would ‘interview’ contestants before and after a silly game; confirm the ‘Joker’ had been played; try to hold the show together with commentary and of course check the scores with the dolly bird scorer, whom usually wore very tight hot-pants, the must have 70s fashion item for any self respecting dumb-blond.
Of course there are now companies that have revived the It’s A Knockout concept for team-building, private parties and family fun-days, I guess to cater for our nostalgia.
There was a ‘Marathon’ game that I think was ongoing between each other individual Knockout game. I can’t remember quite how this one worked but I think it was the BIG game that was spun out over the show to build a bit of tension to the scoring. The Joker of course could be played for a very confident team to double their points but was often squandered!
And who was the Knock-out’s ‘Dip-Stick’? He used to carry a very long stick to measure water collected from some precarious collection game? Was it Arthur someone or Eddie Waring ?? Or was he the Knockout referee with the whistle? He couldn’t talk that’s for sure!!
Whatever. I remember it fondly and in the pre-digital, reality TV age with only 3 channels to choose from then it was good family viewing… I don’t suppose It’s A Knock-out would last the test of time now? (unless it was called “I’m a celebrity, get me on the new knockout show cos I haven’t been picked for anything else show”).
Bali Island Tourist Attraction
Bali, a beautiful island paradise in the Indonesian archipelago made international news when the island was rocked by suicide bombings in 2002 and 2005. However, the island is better known as an excellent vacation holiday destination and a major tourist attraction.
Tourists who have visited this South East Asian island will tell you that Bali exudes a certain magical charm and that is why, some people call Bali, the Island of Gods. After all, gods live in paradise don’t they?
You will be pleasantly impressed by the many stunningly beautiful tourist attractions and the charming local people. If you are a scuba diver, you will be pleased to know that Bali is one of the top scuba diving destinations in the world.
Bali presents itself as a modern paradox because its ancient and traditional culture is still very much alive amidst modern living. While the basic conservatism of the Balinese people has enabled them to preserve many of their ancient customs, culture and religion, it has never hindered the acceptance of the new and innovative modern technological advancement.
The island is indeed a feast for the eye for tourists on holiday vacation in Indonesia. As the island is situated near the equator, it has almost equal amount of time for rain and sunshine making its environment very suitable for human inhabitation and as a result, Bali has been inhabited and civilized since ancient times.
Bali is also the only island in “middle Indonesia” that has more or less uninterrupted cultural continuity for hundreds of years. It is of this reason, Bali is the only part of Indonesia that remains “Hindu” and is still retaining elements of fusion of ethnic and Hindu cultures of more than a thousand years of cultural tradition.
When the island was colonized by the Dutch at the beginning of last century, the Dutch colonial masters were so impressed by the traditions of the Balinese that a concerted effort was made to preserve the island’s mystical culture.
The Balinese society is a strong and cohesive one because the local people promote communal and family values. Feelings of alienation from parents and friends which are common in the western world are almost unheard of in Bali.
Children are carried everywhere or strapped to their mother’s back until they are at least three months old. Religious rituals are performed regularly to keep the children safe, healthy and to protect them from harmful spirits. Every aspect of village life is organized in such detail that the individual’s responsibilities and rights are meticulously defined by the Balinese tradition.
The Balinese are emotionally strong people and take the unfortunate incidents in their stride. The people are eternal optimists and believe that their Island of Gods enjoys a special place in the grander scheme of things. This is another reason why the local population can bounce back from the tragic terrorist attacks so quickly. Want to visit paradise? Then include Bali as your next holiday vacation destination for its many tourists attractions.
