Re: Interceptor (arrrk!) Funny, I thought that too Chris :-) Mornin Gouvnor! (Mikey) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Re: Interceptor & its theme tune The Interceptor theme tune in full is available in RealAudio format for anyone who wants it at
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Re: Interceptor Yup - I completely agree. It was really good to see Dave back and I think he has a similar scary presence. Sean O'Kane managed to scare the er....well ya know out of the contestants. Like the time the guy climbed in the back of a truck, thinking the Interceptor had gone. He hadn't he was waiting just round the corner and when the truck came out, he leaned right over the truck doing his eagle impression. The poor bloke went white and complained to Annabel about having a minor coronary! :o) I just want to see it back on the screen for starters! Please channel4, give it a go! You won't regret it! :o) Chris Hart Mikey: Morning guv. Who's the young lady?
p.s. I have more files available on a personal web server.

Re: Interceptor BRING IT BACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Re: Interceptor He's in San Fransisco ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Re: Interceptor I don't have a direct contact to Sean, but I do email a friend of his in the states occasionally. How about if I get a contact address for him, so that we can tell him about the renewed interest in Interceptor? I'm sure he'd LIKE to know! :o) Chris Hart
"Don't be taking me on a wild goose chase Mikey!" ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Re: Interceptor Lets DO IT Chris, it HAS to come back!! How about printing all of the above messages to send him? Can't wait to see it back. ' They were so lucky ' (int) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Re: Interceptor Okay Steve. I've saved all the messages and I'll email it off today. So you are in Mapperley eh? I'm in Carlton, and Wanted Fan Matt is in Long Eaton! Maybe liking Interceptor is a Nottingham thing? :) Anyway - we MUST have an Interceptor pub meet one day eh? :) Chris Hart "Oh Annabel - I just zapped yer wee rabbit!" :) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Re: Interceptor Yes... I agree with everyone else... Bring Interceptor back... I do remember it and I do remember Annabel Croft, I had quite a crush on her at the time... If were talking about bringing it back who do you all think we should get to do Annabels part???? If Annabel would not do another series??? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Re: Interceptor (the Notts connection) Hang about - I'm near Cambridge! Not Notts! This thread is generating a load of interest - brilliant, keep it going everyone! I'll have a pub meet by proxy. "You onionhead!" ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Re: Interceptor (the Notts connection) Chris, perhaps if we meet up we can decide a on strategy for getting Inteceptor brought back. name the pub and I'll be there, this prog WILL return (sigh). ' Right lads lets go hunting' (int) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Re: Interceptor Hi all ! Thought I'd respond as I started this (pretty one sided) "debate", repeats would be cool, especially as I've forgotten everything that happened (unlike you lot it would seem) I will take at least part of the credit if we DO get it back on tele, which is unlikely despite what you may say. Any response from Sean yet Chris? You're jogging my memory a bit though, the rabbit quote from one of the messages above had me in fits for days. Yes to Dave McBride as a new Interceptor, he was always the best tracker on Wanted anyway. As for the Notts connection, I live in Merseyside, anyone else from round there? I've written you an E-Mail, Chris re.videos and other stuff and I'll post it tommorow, probably. Until next time, Paul Brassey (aka Ghost of Elvis) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Re: Interceptor New Annabel Croft: Personally don't think you have to look too far past Ullllllrika-ka-ka-ka-ka-ka, if you can afford her prices, given that she's got the looks and the talent (Gladiators' success is NOT even partially due to Fashanu). Failing that - and getting back on-topic - seeing as we're in the business of casting Wanted stars for new roles, I wonder if VF or SO have the presence to make it as the anchorwoman for a whole show? Chris (who would kill to be at an Interceptor fan meet)
Female contestant: "I'm being chased by the Interceptor, and he's reeeeeeeeeeeeallly eeeeeeeeeeeevil!" ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Re: Interceptor - effect on contestants Yes, CMD, not to forget the girl who got well zapped on the tractor scam, and her memorable quote:-
Sean was in an advert some time ago, car? Anyone remember? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Re: Interceptor - effect on contestants > Sean was in an advert some time ago, car? Anyone remember? Er yeah - I remember! Now how sad do I look if I tell you that it was for the Ford Sierra Azura? :o) True fan eh? :o) Chris "Oh yes misses - you are mine!! ZAAAAAAAAPP!" ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Re: Interceptor - effect on contestants Id forgotten about that old programme......... Until Chris mentioned the Tractor scam of course then it all came RUSHING BACK....! But there was one phrase that always really really annoyed me...Annabelle's "Oh no, he got you....Oh dear...!" It was SOOOOO false..... But despite all that, bring it back.......I'd love to give it a go myself...! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Re: Interceptor - memorable phrases Join the sad clan James!
Any more from anyone? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Re: Interceptor - memorable phrases Yup! There is a classic Annabel quote - apart from the usual "QUICK, QUICK, QUICK" she used to scream at every oppurtunity. She once said to one of the contestants - "You're looking for a key!! <pause> Its a small silver thing" :o) True!!! Chris Hart Int: I don't like these people driving their boats up and down this part of the river here!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Re: Interceptor Hey, I've just been reading how much this little thread of messages has been taking off since the other week.
I really hope some Channel 4 people are reading these messages. Repeats PLEASE!! (ASAP) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Re: Interceptor >PUT US OUT OF OUR MISERY!!!! (please.) Here Here, PLEASE bring back the Interceptor!!!
(Int) You were Zapped along time ago!!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Re: Interceptor I wonder if any Channel 4 officials out there have the guts to post a message on this thread, let us know why you are not prepared to ressurect one of the most exciting and original programmes ever on TV, there must be at least 25 people who've appealed for repeats at the very least, and that's surely more viewers than Fluke gets in a week, they repeated Treasure Hunt, which incidentally my parents were once contestants on, two or three years ago and the Crystal Maze comes back in every school holiday so come on Channel 4, whats the "officical" view on the greatest programme of all time? Ta-ra for now,
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Re: Interceptor How can your parents have been contestants on Treasure Hunt two or three years ago when the final ever series was made in 1988, broadcasting in 1989?!!!!! I smell something fishy. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Re: Interceptor > How can your parents have been contestants on Treasure
> I smell something fishy. Oo-er. I dearly hope for Interceptor repeats, but it wouldn't make much sense to me to repeat them on C4, it originally being an ITV show. However, were one of the satellite repeat channels to get the rights to a repeat, it could end up being very very good indeed for that channel. The only problem I could see is confusion over who owns the rights to the shows, Chatsworth, Thames or both... Take care
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Re: Interceptor I don't care who shows it - but I'd really like to see it on Channel 4. I think it is exactly the right sort of
Maybe it was a show ahead of its time eh? I'll admit that it looked kind of out of place on ITV right after Coronation Street! :o) Channel 4 - please give Interceptor a new lease of life! PLEASE!! I'll do anything!! :o) SteveP - give us your email eh mate? To arrange the pubmeet. I've been off sick this week - so maybe arrange something for next week? "Oh what a great day for catching contestants" ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Re: Interceptor meet? Interceptor! Yes! I need videos! Could we all meet up and discuss this? Maybe invite Sean O' Kane? You know how much he enjoyed it! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Re: Interceptor meet? Shure Chris, my Email is : stephen@armchair.force9.net, anytime except wed eves is ideal for me :-). SteveP ( annabel) once you touch you're safe! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Re: Interceptor Errr - 'scuse me, but some of us (sad though it may seem) don't have satellite TV !! Campaign for C4 return please! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Re: Interceptor For meet:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Re: Interceptor People who like both Interceptor and Wanted may well be interested in a mailing list set up to discuss UK game
shows; truly outstanding shows such as these are likely to feature heavily in the discussion. Please look in the
"Announcing new mailing list" thread lower down (?) in the topics listing if you're interested.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Re: Interceptor Greetings fellow fans,
What _is_ essential is the comic/baddie attitude that Sean excelled in. It's only us veterans who would worry about a change in actor. Of course, it would be nice if Sean was up for it though. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Re: Web site cool forum Chris. I'm keeping my fingers crossed about my site. Let me know.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Re: Web site Cool idea moving the thread to your site from the Wanted site! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Re: Web site Thanks! I hope people will continue to keep the Interceptor concept alive by posting here.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Guess who found their tape with two episodes on today? :-) Chris, I hope you'll forgive a plug for the mailing list on the deeply groovy forum on your superb site - particularly as you haven't joined yet (hint hint). :-) ukgs-l is a free mailing list designed for discussion of UK game shows. Interceptor
is a favourite of very many on the list, and Wanted is rather popular too. At the
moment we've got a good crowd of about 30 subscribers, but we're always looking for
more true friends of game shows; if you want to join, send mail to
Extremely happy today
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Re: Int Resurrection & Mikey
(Mikie?) Sean O'Kane was undoubtedly the star of the show, but don't you think that Mikey provided a damn good rapport for him? If they got Sean back then it'd only make good sense to get Mikey back as well....damn, they ruled. BTW, someone I know (no really, not me- she even named her cat after hm) was TOTALLY into Mikey...anyone got any sound clips or pix of him? Oh, and for the record- It may be an expensive show, but with piss-poor trackers like they have now, it can't cost as much as Wanted does. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
