Completing the trilogy of presenting hell…

by Robert Popper on May 25, 2009 · View Comments

The third and final (for now) installment of presenter showreels from the 90′s.

This gem was edited exactly as you see it. It’s bafflingly brilliant…

Have been digging out some old VHS tapes recently, and I have lots more nuggets for y’all…

2 ross May 25, 2009 at 10:41 am: Hah! I love far he has to lean in to shake the ‘husband killers’ hand.

Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!
3 Tom Daylight May 25, 2009 at 11:28 am: You saved the best til last. That is just incredible.
4 Monday May 25, 2009 at 11:29 am: You have the most amazing video collection!
5 Jane May 25, 2009 at 11:37 am: WTF!!!!! Who the eff is that? !
6 Fennetta Goat May 25, 2009 at 11:44 am: Sir Rob of Poppleton,

Hebbo, this sublime trilogy is almost as disturbing as the fact you own such clips on tape..(!)
7 Cooper May 25, 2009 at 11:56 am: A very merry good night to you all.

What the frig.
8 Sean O'Brien May 25, 2009 at 1:50 pm: “The police seemed to think you were sharpening the knife for a purpose other than carving the roast.”

How do you own these things?! Please give us MORE!
9 Dirk May 25, 2009 at 2:14 pm: “What about spillage?” “I am a good shot” Eh? You’re a table. And was she trying to kill him or were they just having dinner?
10 A Dawson May 26, 2009 at 4:24 pm: Some one get him some Tixylix!
11 Lino May 26, 2009 at 4:42 pm: I’ll have a glass of whatever the audience was on please barkeep..
12 Alex Pritchard May 26, 2009 at 10:48 pm: Too much, too much.
Top 3 moments. (from 3 to 1, going down.) (I would ask you too read them going up in order but then it get complicated, people stop reading ect ect, you can copy this list, rearrange it and print it out on your computer if you wish too)

so

3) (considering this is his show reel) “I don’t consider my-self to be very interesting.
2) ‘Billy Connolly touching his willy, makes me wonder if I should be touching mine.’
1) With a smile on his face ‘Jenifer, um, you tried to kill your husband’. ‘ I did indeed’

Moments that didn’t make it but were equally as good, Naked sailing!!, What about spillage? and coffee on the knob!! (‘who wipes the table?’ ‘I wipe my own table thank you’) ‘I don’t go around other peoples houses pretending to be a rug! (Why not?!)

Thank you Pep Pep Popper and thanks for the high five at work today, made everyone think I was cool.
13 Scaryduck May 27, 2009 at 9:53 am: I am planning a dreadful geezer-orientated TV channel with as few viewers as possible as a tax dodge. Where can I hire this man?
14 Robert Popper May 27, 2009 at 2:29 pm: Any time dude! Your top three list is spot on!
15 Henry May 29, 2009 at 4:12 pm: I was just speechless after this brilliance. I don’t see how others could even formulate words, let alone develop top three lists. Kudos to all peoples.
16 John Wilding May 30, 2009 at 7:48 pm: Why does the clip start with a red car on the wrong side of the road?
17 John Wilding May 30, 2009 at 7:54 pm: Another observation:

Why include clips of yourself making mistakes, if it’s a showreel?
Also, if you look closely, you will notice it is the “human furniture” man who is making all the noise as the show opens and closes (he is whooping).
18 John Wilding May 30, 2009 at 7:54 pm: He is sitting left side of audience, in the audience at that point.
19 Leo Abrahams May 30, 2009 at 8:07 pm: he sounds like a cockney Baron Greenback.

“Tell me about this ‘human furniture’, Dangermouse…”
20 beatroute66 June 2, 2009 at 9:57 pm: How does he manage to combine a ridiculously high-pitched voice with such a gruff tone?

I’d love to see him presenting The One Show.
21 John Wilding June 7, 2009 at 2:23 pm: I’m obsessed with this now, and the “Fool for a Father” clip.
It does seem like it has been edited by someone who can’t actually see the pictures to what they’re editing.
22 ross October 28, 2009 at 1:00 pm: Hah! I love far he has to lean in to shake the 'husband killers' hand.

Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!
