Bob Monkhouse in Wipeout (1994)

Trivia

Episode #5.32

Wipeout

Bob noticeably avoids a coarse innuendo on this edition when the answer of "F-Holes" is chosen for a part of a violin. Bob remarks "Don't think it would be there, unless it were", before quickly explaining what the "F-Holes" are.

During the explanation, Bob looks slightly uncomfortable, swallowing and appearing to repress his instincts for the 12:35pm daytime audience.
Bob starts his introductory chat with contestant Tara Shearman by saying the less-than-flattering: "Awful to have a name that spelled backwards... a rat."
Bob's traditional sign off for episodes is to deliver a joke or whimsical saying, followed by the phrase "That wipes me out."

This is changed on this edition, where he gives a more sombre: "Finally, please... don't learn the Highway Code by accident. Be a winner, not a Wipeout."

Despite the relatively serious tone of the message, the dubbed audience gives an audible laugh to the statement.
The grid subjects featured on this edition are:

Main Grids: Carry On films; Parts of a violin.

Auction Grids: Characters from The Canterbury Tales who told tales on the way to Canterbury; Countries that have Presidents.

Final Grid: Characters from Top Cat.
