[kj] Jaz on Blue Peter

[Karen Weil]

Heh! No, I can only claim to be a Yank. I was in England last week -- originally to see KJ -- you am aware of your Blue Peter show. Much learning on my part, however.

  Oh sorry Karen, I thought you were UK?


  Over here, everyone grew up with Blue Peter.  The three people I mentioned were iconic from our childhoods & generation about 30 years ago.  It's done a great deal of good raising money for charities etc, guide dogs.  Big on guide dogs.  You sent them silver foil, back in the 1970's, and if they got enough scrap, unwanted or unused silver foil, they could get a guide dog with it.  


  Could somebody please explain this to me, as it has been a very long time and I still do not understand HOW THE F*** YOU BUY TRAINED LABRADORS WITH SILVER FOIL???




  JOHN NOAKES;  Calm down Sheppie!  It's only Killing Joke's Jeremy Coleman!


  JAZ:  Call me Jaz...call me Jaz...


  JOHN NOAKES:  GET DOWN JAZ!  So tell me Jeremy, what kind of music do you play?


  JAZ:  Er, Foil the Leader?  Er, the sound of the earth vomiting?


  LESLEY JUDD:  Jeremy!  That's not very nice?  Is it rock and roll?


  JAZ:  You know that none of us have very long left, don't you...in fact, the entire planet itself?


  SHEP:  WOOF!  (BITES JAZ.)




  CAMERA CUTS TO PETER PURVES AND GEORDIE SHARING A SPLIFF.


  PETER P:...Here's one we made...earlier!  (HYSTERICS.)



  (Karen - I am not joking about the silver foil.  Seriously.  Britain is a very wierd place, so take care whilst over here!!!)

  Tell you what, Paul: I won't ignore you, if you won't mock my utter ignorance on this particular show -- actually, you are more than entitled, I guess. 
  For whatever it's worth, I did get to watch a taping of "You Were Watching" at the BBC Television Centre last Tuesday. Perhaps that improves my street cred? ; ) 

  Best,

  Karen

    OK, Paul. Thanks. I'll ignore you, too.

      Ignore Karen, that is just the children's version. 


      Some of us saw the real thing.  Peter Pervert, and his 'adventures'  (Catchphrase:  HERE IS ONE WE 'MADE' EARLIER...)  John Noakes, who 'did things' with a dog all the time... and finally Miss Leslie Judd.  Come on, with a name like JUDD?  She replaced the Lesbian, Valerie Singleton.


      They would often do things together, with old toilet rolls, string, paper, and cut out washing up bottles.  You guys stick to wholesome American TV, we Brits have a dark history.


      GO DOWN SHEP!!

        WTF is "Blue Peter?" That sounds more like some kind of nasty adult entertainment show than a kid's show.

        Yes.  That is correct.
