CheapShow - Ep 486: Supermarket Sweepings

Episode Date: May 8, 2026

Every now and then, Cheapshow likes to go a little “wild in the aisle” when it comes to charity shop shopping… This week, they get to put their spending skills to the test when Paul whips out a ...board game based on a beloved 1990s game show, Supermarket Sweep! Hosted by Dale Winton, contestants ran around a huge supermarket, hunting for items and answering food based questions. But will the board game reflect the excitement of the TV show? You probably already have a good idea on the outcome to that, in a classic Gannon’s Golden Games. Eli’s also got to sweet treats to sample, with a return to the Froth Shop. The candy store has reopened, but sadly, an all too familiar face is running the shop. To make matters worse, Paul is definitely not going to like some of the gummies on offer. It’s all going to be very disappointing, isn’t it? Oh and Eli is MEGA hung over.

Starting point is 00:00:00 Eli is about to begin his opening gambit on setting the tone and mood for this week's episode. Please begin, Mr. Silverman. Low energy. Eli was off his grits last night and now he's hung over again, letting you the cheap show audience down. Whereas I'm, whoo, sprig and sprit. That's what I am. You are.
Starting point is 00:00:28 Sprig and sprit today. I've heard people call you a sprit. No, they've called me a horrible vacuous cousin. Don't get the two confused. Ooh. Honestly, I haven't got to... So it's going to be a low-key episode then this week from you, is it? From my side of things, Paul, I'm going to try and keep the professionalism, as always.
Starting point is 00:00:45 Yeah. You know, the natural presenting talent. The maverick skills of Eli, Jacob Silverman. That I embody. Yeah. But a little bit on the chill side because I'm nursing, as they say. Oh. I'm nursing it hard.
Starting point is 00:01:00 I'm suckling. Is anyone still keeping a track of how many episodes being? with Eli, hungover, miserable and low-key. And then, let's be honest, a little bit grouchy. Oh, come on. You are.
Starting point is 00:01:10 You always get grouchy. I am... You were grouchy last week. I'm an angry man. I'm an angry a man in general. I'll give you that. But you're grouchy when you're like this. You're all bitter and grouchy.
Starting point is 00:01:22 The thing is, Paul, yeah. I fully admit and come clean about... Yes, I'm often hungover. Imagine if I turned up to my work, hung over from the day before. I wouldn't keep my job. You wouldn't tell them.
Starting point is 00:01:33 Jobs on a thread here, basically, is what I'm saying. I've let this slide for nigh on 11 years. Listen, mate, all I'm saying now is it got to the point where, yes, a high percentage of cheap show episodes feature a ill or hungover, Eli. Yeah. But what percentage feature you complaining about the percentage of, do you know what I'm saying? Yeah, true. You're right. It's probably high.
Starting point is 00:01:55 I mean, we've had this. It can only be as high as the numbers of fucking times you've been miserable. Everyone just fast forward this fucking cold open. It's the same fucking shit. Just fast forward. minute or so. I'm sorry I'm hung over. Blah, blah, blah.
Starting point is 00:02:06 And I wouldn't have to have that ratio if you were more professional. Because it'd be like how many times have Paul said, you're a lovely man, eh? You never say I'm a lovely man. How about this? You're a lovely man. How about that? Thanks. Does that make you feel better?
Starting point is 00:02:18 Yeah, but hasn't lifted my energy anything. Well, that's why he's necking his Red Bull, which is what I like to call Silverman the spinach is what I'm calling that from now on. This is a... Oh, not fucking... You're like a... It's still. All I'm saying is it's still.
Starting point is 00:02:31 You can gauge that... Yes, I'm sure it remains Red Bull. no matter what you do with it, yes. You can gauge the level of my hangover, the severity of my hangover. Yeah, by if it's still or fizzy. Yes, or if it's sugar-free. This is full fat, still, original.
Starting point is 00:02:47 That means you are fucking hungover. Macho-hungo over-os. Yes, yeah. Macho, using a Mexican word there. Yeah, foreshadowing. Why? What's coming up? I don't know, what's coming up.
Starting point is 00:02:57 You saw it? I didn't. That's pre-cheep show, Paul. That's business end, Paul. He's the one who takes the pictures, gets this stuff set up. He fucks off when the podcast starts and this fucking sex machine takes a...
Starting point is 00:03:09 Wow. He hit his tits. Right on the tits. You bruised your tits. I might have hurt me tits. He did. Stop. Come.
Starting point is 00:03:18 It's too sexy. It's fine. You can be funny naturally. No. No? I can't. That's blatantly obvious. You can.
Starting point is 00:03:25 Got to force it. Fucking constipated poo. You don't. Now, so what's coming up on the show today, Paul? Well, how about I just play the bloody. music and then we can roll into the show. How about that? They can't all be winners, man. They can't all be winners. But please don't, please don't stop listening to Cheap Show. Oh, mate, don't sound desperate. That's the other thing you do
Starting point is 00:03:45 when you're hung over. You get desperate and whiny. Great. Here is Cheap Show this week. Press the fucking credit. Storces and words and phrases. Who things I'm responsible for? So, hello, welcome to Cheap Show. It is a podcast about having the most fun you can with the littlest of cash you've got. We find. What do we find?
Starting point is 00:04:36 All across the country, we truffle through tat, mountains of it, scruffle, huffle, cruffle through the Tart, Tatt tunnel. And then we produce treasure that we find amongst that trash, Paul. We do. And sometimes they contain stories. And sometimes you get factualized, my friend. But along the way, we hope to have a few giggles, don't we? We certainly do. Like that. Factoid fragments like the remnants of a fecal party.
Starting point is 00:05:02 Yes. Whatever the fuck that means. It doesn't mean nothing, but it has a poetic ring to it. It does, yeah, I've got a poetic ring. Right, really? No, I don't know what that means. You've got a lavender ass piece. I've got a lavender bummer ring, yes.
Starting point is 00:05:14 Does it go kissy-kissy, make little poo marks? You know when... I don't know. Draw a line, let's start again. Hello, welcome to Chief Show, the economy podcast. No, come on. I'm Paul Gannon and that's Eli-Silverman. Hello there, yes.
Starting point is 00:05:25 Hello and yes, we like to look for the fun amongst the thrift. And that's what we're doing this week. Now, this week is a big week for Cheap Show because it's the golden loads. By the time this episode comes out, we'll have known how badly we did this year. I see, we did very well last year. We got one, didn't we? Shower not a grower. Show it, not a grower there.
Starting point is 00:05:43 I see it. They're on the shelf. And we're not nominated for that one this year, but I also didn't apply for that one this year, to be fair. Oh, do you have to apply before? Yeah, you have to apply for the categories you think you are. eligible for. So I went for earworm because I was very proud of the album. Isn't that the one we were
Starting point is 00:06:01 the other because we were up for two? You chose two last year? Yeah, the other one was earworm as well. That was for the cheap show theme. But I was much more proud of our whole fucking album. The album has been since. So surely we're in, I mean, how many other podcasts would have released an LP? No, I know, but it's it. You know what? You know what?
Starting point is 00:06:19 You know what, mate? I don't know. You can't just go, we made an album, therefore we should win. And one of them got like Sting to do their theme now? I don't know. Sting. No one's going to want Sting to do their podcast theme. Because it will take him forever. He'll write a bit of it and then go off around the world for a bit,
Starting point is 00:06:33 then come back and write a little bit of it. Not forgetting his vegan tantric sex sessions. That's what I was implying with my stop-star, stop-star analogy, wasn't it? Yes. Would he maybe go, oh, this podcast, do the children love their podcast too? No, he doesn't, I can't, I call it does Sting sound like it's more... It's a chest voice, isn't it? It's more like,
Starting point is 00:06:55 I get, ah, I see, walking on the moon. That's what he does, isn't it? That's what he did, the police.
Starting point is 00:07:01 We can walk together. It's higher than you're doing it. Yeah, but that's for the certain songs. Like, Roxanne. Yeah. All of them have got that
Starting point is 00:07:09 kind of, it is a kind of, I have to admit, I don't really care for his stuff. I don't care for Sting too much. I like the sound of his voice. I can see why the,
Starting point is 00:07:16 why the sound of his voice is appealing to people in a pop way. It's that kind of, it's quite a unique. Anyway, welcome to Sting Pod. where we review the hits of sting. And I reveal my lavender ring piece.
Starting point is 00:07:28 Likis, gissy. Ooh, there's no poo visible, but there's a mark of mucus. It's popery poe, isn't it? No, we're coming up on the episode. So we are going to be at the golden lobes this Wednesday. We don't know how it's, as we record, we don't know how it pans out.
Starting point is 00:07:44 So on Friday, maybe we'll record a little bit and drop it in this week's episode. I don't know, but we'll see. That'll be at the end of this week's episode, put it out way. So good luck to everyone who's going. this Wednesday. We're up for three.
Starting point is 00:07:55 Again, tell us the three that we're... Earworm, I suggested the album. That's got a big. Behind the scenes hero, I suggested an event for that because, you know, superstar. You have to name an actual... Yeah. And then the last award is,
Starting point is 00:08:05 Beyond the Feed, which is like, for stuff you do, that isn't exactly your podcast stream. So I was like, oh, here's our YouTube channel and the live stream stuff we do, and the live shows and the album. That isn't a podcast. Basically, stuff that is cheap show, but not the podcast itself.
Starting point is 00:08:19 So I put that forward and we'll see how it goes. I believe the Beyond the Feed ones, and you, for this year. Right. I think. I don't know. Anyway, so wish us all of luck,
Starting point is 00:08:27 even though you can't, because this is now coming out on the Friday after the Wednesday. So, you know, everyone will know by then. Only those that are interested. I guess. True. Anyway, that's what we're doing Wednesday.
Starting point is 00:08:37 Big week, but also this week on the podcast, two classic segments. We're going to the Throff Shop for some candy candy time because we haven't been to the Froth Shop in a while, have we? We haven't. And also, Gannon's Golden Games,
Starting point is 00:08:48 the long-away to reveal of the Supermarket Sweep Board Game. That's what's coming up on the show today. Oh, I'm looking forward to both those segments, Paul. Shall we tutel and lootle on? Is anything you want to mention? Because it's all business. Usually we do a little bit of fuck around.
Starting point is 00:09:02 My radio show, if we're doing housework, housekeeping. Yeah. Radio show doesn't really count as cheap show stuff, though. So it's not really... I mean, I don't want you to talk about it, is what I'm saying. It's moved, everyone, my radio show on Soho Radio. Off here. That's the sad bit.
Starting point is 00:09:16 It's been moved off here. It's on a Friday now, a better slot from a six to eight. Is it? I thought Sunday was a nice slot to how. I mean, I know the Friday was... Pain in the ass. Why? Because you have to leave the house on a Sunday.
Starting point is 00:09:25 Yes. When you're hung over. Often I'm working the night before. But aren't you always hung over like working on a Monday here? No, not always. No, not usually. The reason I'm hung over today, Paul,
Starting point is 00:09:35 is because it was a... Drinking problem. It was a... It's a bad holiday. That's why. So I worked last night. It's just because you can't be yourself unless you had a few drinks. That's not true.
Starting point is 00:09:45 I don't drink before the podcast, do I? I know myself now. Yeah, but you're hung over, so you're not really yourself, are you? Oh, God. You know, what is the true Eli? Everyone's subject to contexts of like brain chemistry and environment and tiredness levels. No, you're just always...
Starting point is 00:10:01 Yeah. Well, I don't know what you mean. Come on. Oh, brilliant, me. Top to bottom. Go and hurt your tits again. They do still rings. I got a right on the nips.
Starting point is 00:10:12 Oh. Punch me nips. You flicked the nips. I did, yeah. Well, anyway, don't, don't do what Donnie don't does. Right. Okay. Shall we roll a tutel and a lutele?
Starting point is 00:10:21 Yes, we better then. Come on in, everybody. Let's have some fun. Right, well, it's time to do a segment that we haven't returned to in a while. Not strictly speaking, anyway, focus, because we've had a few candies and sweets over the years and months. But we thought we'd open up the shop again for the first time in a long time. It is, is it the froth shop?
Starting point is 00:10:41 We did call it that, didn't we? No, I don't think so. It was a soda jerk for candy, wasn't it? No, soda jerks for soda. The froth shop. I'm sure the froth shop how was a candy stunt. back of the day when it first opened and there was original management.
Starting point is 00:10:55 We haven't mentioned the froth shop in years. I'm pretty sure the froth shops a sweet shop. It's one of your things like belly rennet. Do you know what? I saw some vomit on the street the other day. Wonderful.
Starting point is 00:11:04 And I thought of belly rennet and it turned my stomach even more. Good. That's the gift I like to give. I love to put out those words that stick in the crawl of your mind. What is rennet? I think it's something they put in cheese.
Starting point is 00:11:15 Yeah, it's like the lining, isn't it? Of a stomach or something like that. So belly, you're kind of belly rennet. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Albert's grease, you know what I mean? Not alberis, Albert's grease. Mucal fecal, mukel mucal makers.
Starting point is 00:11:30 Yeah, that good, I think. Mucal ring, mucal ring, bum hole mucal ring. Anyway, I've heard that the shop's really opened, anyway. Should we go down there? Let's see, let's go along and knock on the door, let's go in. Oh, it's a very nice looking shop this one, isn't it? They've repainted it. They have repainted it.
Starting point is 00:11:46 It used to be white, and now it's eggshell white. It's nice. There's red rimming around the door. There is a nice bit of red rimming around the door. Let me just, uh... Let's just go in, shall we? Okay. Hello?
Starting point is 00:11:59 Hello? Hey, Tron. We'd like to sample your candy. Hello. Hello. Hello, it's me, Willie Wanker. Hello, Mr Wanker. I do, yeah.

Starting point is 00:12:21 I don't know where he's getting that from. Did you just say to me something about me fucking a cow, sir? I don't even know you. Why do you have to fiddle with your spectacles to portray this character? He never used to do that. Different character. It's more, you're doing like, Morkham and Wye. Shut up.
Starting point is 00:12:40 Wow, the fucking paper thinness of your characterisation. It says something to be... Anyway, lads, I've reopened the shop. And now Willie Wank is back with his magical candy shopper treats. Right. I'm just looking forward to giving out some new... My new discoveries for a review if you've got them. Oh, yes, please, Mr. Wanker.
Starting point is 00:12:58 That's lovely. And if you fucking start spreading that around, that you've just said then... Spreading what? Spreading what? The cow pat? The cow pat. The cow pat.
Starting point is 00:13:08 Muck spreading, Mr. Wanker. I don't know what you're talking about, sir. And I don't like your own. Does the name Daisy ring a bell? I bet you betcha Daisy's name like that. She was a saint, and I would not. Never penetrator. Never a million thousand years.
Starting point is 00:13:27 You have. This is a different time. I've got... Have you got some sweets for us then? I've got the law breathing down my neck. And I've told them I'd never do it again. I can't fucking mention it. It's a huge fucking leaf.
Starting point is 00:13:39 Fine. What's in the basement? Just like that. I can hear mewing. I can't. I can't. No, you can't. I can.
Starting point is 00:13:47 No, it's just a record of sound effects of BBC. I play it. It's how I get me fixed now. Oh, you just put a cow... I just put... Mewing cow music on. And that was the joke. Well, can we have some sweets, please?
Starting point is 00:13:58 Because... Good. Come on, just give me a fucking break. I'm trying to build a new life for me. I'm sorry. That used to be your thing. I know I did some stuff in the past, mate. But come on, let him go.
Starting point is 00:14:10 I know. It's fine. That's different me. Different town's different man. I was having a divorce. My kids weren't talking to me. No fucking wonder. You were all fucking cows and sheep.
Starting point is 00:14:18 Yeah, my wife never understood me. No, you wouldn't, would you? It's not normal. Like Daisy. Oh, I had to eat her. I had to eat Daisy. Is she in the freezer? All right, Mr. Wanker.
Starting point is 00:14:29 You go downstairs and listen to your records for a bit and we'll just... Should we just help ourselves? So what's here? Where are these innovative... I left them on the counter for you there. If you wouldn't mind reviewing him for your channel, is that all right? That's great.
Starting point is 00:14:40 Thank you, Mr. Wanker. Don't worry. Your secret's safe with us. It's not secret. It's fine. Move, hey? No, no. Stop, how dare you.
Starting point is 00:14:48 You're coxies. Okay, he shouldn't have mentioned that, mate. I think obviously he's not very proud of his past and, you know, he's trying to turn over a new leaf. Yeah, but, you know, he was awful, an awful man. I mean, let alone the animal abuse. Yeah, but he served this time. He served this time.
Starting point is 00:15:05 He's turned over a new leaf. He was a cunt to everyone, business partners, Juicy Jeremy. I know, I know. He fucked him over, didn't he? Everyone's allowed a second chance. I just think juicy Jeremy's a nicer and more developed character. Yeah, well, you know, I haven't heard from him in a while since he went to the content house.
Starting point is 00:15:20 Oh, that's right. I still think he's living in his car, isn't he? Yeah. I wonder what happened there. He got, we should do a segment. and get him in. Tell him we need a segment. Let's interview him. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:15:27 And see what he's up to. Maybe he can tell us what's going on. I think he's got a phone in his car, one of those old car phone warehouse ones. Yeah, it's not on right now though. Right, candy. The first item we have today, Paul. I.
Starting point is 00:15:37 I challenge you. Yes. Oh, you know, is when I was working last night. How many pounds have we got? Four. Yeah. Oh, he's given us four. He's given us four items.
Starting point is 00:15:45 He's left us with four items. When I was working last night, I found two of these because a new shop is where I DJ, the discount suit company. Have I got that sticky? I've got like crummy lap. My lap's covered in crumbs I don't know, man Maybe you're...
Starting point is 00:15:57 Sorry, go on, sorry. Maybe you had a lot of dry skin on your tits And then you hit it It kind of ruptured... Yeah, a bunch of dust came under your t-shirt. Oh, he's sniffing it now. Sniff the tit dust, Silverman. I am silver.
Starting point is 00:16:09 It feels like biscuits. Anyway, go on. Paul's favorite word. Why is biscuits my favourite word? It fucking is. Why? I don't know why. You'd have to tell me that,
Starting point is 00:16:18 but I just know it is because when you have to think of a random word, biscuits, Jimmy Biscuits being... All right, but that's different. That's his real name. So is that what's what to do with me? Okay.
Starting point is 00:16:31 Now, I... Oh, I'm going to put my glasses on for this. Oh, yeah, put your glasses on, right? Anyway, let's get into the first... Yes, let's get into the first one. Now, first item caught my eye last night. Oh. New shop opened up opposite the discount suit company where it's working.
Starting point is 00:16:43 Willie Wankers, Tris. And I challenge you, Paul, to come up with a more lesbian porn-themed name for a sweet product. This is Swizzles, flick and lick. There, I'll hand it to you I don't know what it is I'm quite fascinated Do you know what it looks like to me So I don't know why
Starting point is 00:17:00 I'm falling into that matter It looks like those rubbers used to get in the 80s Yes You know like fruit flame It or Robinson's jam rubber erasers Yes the smelly erasers Yes but that's what I thought it was at first
Starting point is 00:17:12 Because you sometimes get sweets That are posing as erasers That opposes sweets It's very hard to tell the difference Now it is wrapped But it's also It's like a box In a plastic orange
Starting point is 00:17:20 Translucent container You're going to have to open this Okay Hand it to me Hang on, no, actually, I can use this. Swizzles make... They're like a big brand. Like lollipops and candies in general, don't they?

Starting point is 00:17:41 A little box? A little plastic orange box. It's like a little TikTok. And I think it opens like a kind of switch knife. It does, like that. Oh, it's a lolly. Turning it into a little... I can't smell it.
Starting point is 00:17:52 Can I give it a sniff? It doesn't smell. like orange? Is it meant to be orange? God, there's no smell at all. But it doesn't smell like tamarind almost. It's funny you should say that because coming up we've got, I'm going to mention tamarind. It says orange on the sticker thing, but, uh... Yeah, it's like a, it's a hard candy. Yeah. And you open it up like a can of switch knife, weirdly enough. It's like just for kids, isn't it? Yeah. You know, it's quite torietic, isn't it? It's the old push pop model, isn't it? Yes, but it's more like a stapler with a... Do they still make

Starting point is 00:19:45 Yeah? Just very typical orange boiled sweet flavor. So if I got a lollipop, that was an orange flavored lollipop, boiled sweet, it's that kind of texture. It's exactly that. Fine. And the texture is boiled sweet.
Starting point is 00:19:56 It's hard. Fine. And you can close it up and save it for later. Exactly. Just like a pushpot, but it's more of a flick and lick. Flicking, well, that's what it says on the wrapper, isn't it? Oh, now it's on the carpet.

Starting point is 00:20:58 Age of reason. Age of innocence. Age of innocence. Age of Innocence. Piabs of Innocence. Done. Right. Okay. Item number two.
Starting point is 00:21:06 Okay. No, you need to rate that. Now, I can't rate it, but I can give it on form. Inform and function, I would say that's a solid four. Yeah, it's fine. But that's all I can say. What about you overall? You know what, Paul?
Starting point is 00:21:16 I was actually hoping it was more of a Tick-Tac thing. Oh, yeah. More like little things. You clicked a little button and it suddenly came out. I do like the toyetic element. Yeah. Fun for a kid. Put it in your pocket.
Starting point is 00:21:28 And, you know, you do, the way it works, you do ensure you can save a bit for later. Yeah. So, uh, 3.5. 3.5. Right, let's do the next one. Now, Snickers.
Starting point is 00:21:43 Yes. Used to be called Marathon in this country, Paul. Indeed, they did. It's a stupid name for a chocolate bar, isn't it really? Well, you know, wasn't marathon? Oh, no. It meant to give you the energy to run a marathon, I guess, was the sort of thinking.
Starting point is 00:21:56 Yeah, it's probably inferred like that. Or I thought it meant long-lasting eat. You know, because marathons are long-lasting endurance things. Marathons, they're chewy, they take a bit longer to eat, mate. I don't know. But also, it's like Ritter Sport or some of these weird things or that sport cola that we try that sport cola from... Oh, it might be in that brand book, yeah. You forget we got this for research.
Starting point is 00:22:18 But, you know, it's always funny whether there's a confectionery product, a sugary product that has some kind of association with athletics. You know, like Ritter Sport, and they're trying to say, and marathon, there might be similar. But you know why I really think it's called Marathon. Why? Because Marathon is an ancient Greek thing, isn't it? And so is Mars. And isn't Mars the parent company?
Starting point is 00:22:38 Well... Or was once the parent company. No. Do you see what I mean? The whole Mars story is complicated. It's very complicated. Because it was an American company. Then one guy moved away from the Mars family, took it to the UK,
Starting point is 00:22:49 created an own Mars company with the Mars bar. And wasn't it the Hershey brothers? One of them was the Hershey brothers. No, no, no. It was the Marse. It was the... John and Philip Mars. No, yeah, it was the Mars family who started.
Starting point is 00:22:59 But then one of the sons of the family went to Britain, started a different Mars company out there, invented the Mars bar in the UK. Which was a different bar? Yeah. They didn't have a Mars bar in America. Right. So effectively, then what happened was Mars became huge in the UK and he went back to America and bought his family's company.
Starting point is 00:23:16 And though then... So they are one company now. But Mars wouldn't work. So that's why in America, Mars bars are, I think, three musketeers or something. Or whatever. Anyway, it's why there's no Mars bar in America, basically. But we once did a taste test of chocolate bars from here. And America.
Starting point is 00:23:32 And they are so much worse out there. I mean, I'm sorry to, you know, go on the same old trope. But it is disgusting. Yeah. I don't know how you put up with it over there. Terrible. Terrible. This is a product from Australia.
Starting point is 00:23:43 I have bought an Australian Snickers variant here, Paul. Or rather, Willy Wonka did. But anyway, you've got a Snickers basically is what we're saying. I have an Australian. I've just seen a little Australian paper-based wrapper. And it has that on an outline of the Australian continent. Nice. Which is also an island.
Starting point is 00:23:58 So what's Australian chocolate like? I don't know, you know. It's a discussion that we've never really had, I guess. We've had tamtams. Yeah, those were mostly penguins, right? Yeah, they were nice, as I recall. I think they were just like penguins. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:24:11 But I don't remember what their chocolate is, because you'd think of me the same problem. Hot country, higher wax quotient for, I say wax, but you know what I mean? The Kirshies, like the Hershey stuff. Yeah, the Hershey style to keep it more together in hot temperatures. Horrible. Which is horrible.
Starting point is 00:24:23 Yeah. Now, this is a coffee-flavor Snickers pulled. Oh, nice. Yeah. That's why I picked it up. Just coffee or coffee and something else. No, just coffee. Coffee flavour.
Starting point is 00:24:32 I'd like to try that very much. Yes, coffee and chocolate. It's got a nice pleasing little espresso cup on the paper-based draft. Yeah. And the paper, it's like... Papal-based as well. It's for Vickers. It's papal-based.
Starting point is 00:24:43 Yeah. You know what? What? No. Do you want to? Nah. You know what is papal-based? What?
Starting point is 00:24:48 My drone dildo robot, though, sent to the... Not worth it. No, come on. You didn't let it live. You didn't let it breathe. I couldn't. Dildo. Okay.
Starting point is 00:24:57 I'm going to open this up. Hurry up. You take a bite from one end. I'll take a bite from the other. Unless you want to break a bit off, I guess. I'll break a bit off. All right. There you go.
Starting point is 00:25:06 There you go. Have a sniff. I'm going to have a sniff. Oh, yeah. You like that? It's got that. Remember Revels. It just smells exactly like that.
Starting point is 00:25:13 Coffee Revels. Yeah, it smells exactly like them. I like that kind of coffee. You sort of love coffee revels. That's quite unusual. That is a, I'm not quite sure result for me, that one. It's not awful. It's not particularly nice either.
Starting point is 00:25:26 There's something off. putting about the peanut flavor with the coffee. And the caramel, because you know what it's making in my mouth? Almost a molasses kind of thing. Yes. It's that vibe I'm getting more than coffee. That kind of malty almost, yeah. Yeah, I know what you mean.
Starting point is 00:25:38 Yeah, and that's what's off putting about it. But if you like that kind of flavor profile, a molassesy kind of chocolatey thing, I suppose that's really quite a nice version of it. It's quite nice. It's quite balanced. Do you know what I mean? It's not like there's nothing acrid.
Starting point is 00:25:49 There's nothing. No. And it all goes together. It's just very unusual to have that peanut for me. The most unusual thing is the peanut flavor. with that coffee, caramel coffee sort of vibe. Interesting. I wouldn't go back.
Starting point is 00:26:02 No. I wouldn't finish that. Weirdly, wouldn't finish that. They've been very disappointing all of these Snickers variants of recent years because there's like a passion fruit one I think we tried and all sorts of things. The problem with that kind of thing is it's unnecessary. They're trying to just do more magical things with the brands that you buy chocolate out of curiosity rather than desire for that flavor, isn't it? No one really wants parrot, you know, a passion.
Starting point is 00:26:24 Parrot flavor, man. Well, maybe someone does what a parrot flavor. I love a bit of wild foul. I was going to say passion fruit. I love it's really ducky. That's what you could have on the ad. Marathon duck flavour. Taste like the pond.
Starting point is 00:26:35 No. Marathon duck flavour. It tastes foul. Oh. Now you. Classic. All right. I would have to give that 2.5 out of 5.
Starting point is 00:26:47 Same here. Just right down the middle of don't care. I don't care for it. I love coffee. I love coffee. Yeah. But it's that coffee sweet flavour, which isn't really a coffee flavour. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:26:56 Reeds as coffee. But it's not really the flavour of coffee. It's the flavour of that coffee essence or whatever that, you know, that stuff you get. Theory, would you be interested in a Mars bar coffee? Yes. More than that. Without the nuts. The nuts is what does it for me.
Starting point is 00:27:11 Yeah, baby. The nuts is fighting. It's almost like they're too savoury to have with coffee. Do you know what I mean? Well, it's that bitterness the peanut brings as well. Yeah. Which means, I don't know. It's sort of, yeah.
Starting point is 00:27:21 As I say, just makes it more molassesy for me. For me, there's a clash of flavours with the peanut and the coffee flavour. But it's not. It's a well-made chocolate bar. And I'm glad it's in a paper wrapper for the Australians. And in terms of like Australian chocolate, I didn't taste anything particularly off about it. You know you can tell with some chocolate.
Starting point is 00:27:37 No, it tastes like the quality. Yes, it doesn't taste like the same sort of American quality, low-quality chocolate. All right, well, let's move on to item number three. Right, Paul. Right, Gav. Right. Well, we got Lex in the froth shop.
Starting point is 00:27:54 He's left for what that man has done. I think we are moving on to the gummy sub-segment of the main segment. Gummy. Gummy. Gummy. Gummy's up. Fuego. Fuego.
Starting point is 00:28:06 Hot spicy gummies. Fuego hot spicy gummies. Now there is a tradition. My eye living breathe. There is a tradition, a long standing tradition on Cheap Show. Yeah, there is a bit of strong. Of chili flavoured gummy sweets. Some are nice to do nother.
Starting point is 00:28:21 Chili minis, was it? I don't, I stop touching my fucking glasses. Everything I'm doing is doing this. Mine are fogging up. It's like I'm in. We need to wear him right now because I'll just take him off. So we've got two chili. sweets. Oh, both big brands
Starting point is 00:28:33 and I have opened these. I've got these in the States in the airport, I believe. The first one here. Skittles, Gammies Fuego. Oh, Skittles have got in on the hot stuff. They've got a spice meter. Obviously, what the fuck does that mean? That means nothing. But it's two flames out of three on the spice meter. But it doesn't
Starting point is 00:28:49 matter, because there's no one or three level one for you to know the difference. It's not, it's just... You know what I mean? It's just this weird convention of putting some kind of made-up scale. Yeah. It's not Scovilles. No, it's just spice meter. Like, What, the Skittles Gummies official spice meter? Oh, yeah, no, they've got top scientists in.
Starting point is 00:29:06 I know, but it's, you know, it's something to look at. And you have... Are they multi-flavored? Yes, you have five flavors in here. Right. Lemon, yeah. Watermelon. Fine.
Starting point is 00:29:15 Strawberry. Strawberry. Mango. Yeah. Raspberry. Raspberry. See, I don't understand the appeal of watermelon. I can have more tolerance of it than like it.
Starting point is 00:29:24 No. It's an American thing. They love their watermelon candies out there. I like a watermelon. What about peach candy? No, I like peach candy. Watermelon. I like watermelon flavored. I don't mind it, but it's not my favourite of the boiled sweets or gummies.
Starting point is 00:29:36 Like, I used to love jolly ranchers, but the one I would always skip as the watermelon one. Oh, really? You'd skip it. Yeah, I just wouldn't bother. Now... Oh, they've got crustings on them. Yeah, they've got crustings. What are the crustings? Sherbert.
Starting point is 00:29:49 It's sugar and spice. Sugar and spice. Because I was, in my head, even though you had said gummies, my brain was still thinking, oh, Skittles, Shettles, a little chewy sweets. This is a sub-branded of Skittles of Gummys. Right. It's just another way repackaging gummies, isn't it? Yeah, and they're not even Skittles shaped at all.
Starting point is 00:30:03 I mean, they aren't kind of, but they're much bigger than a normal skittles. Taste the rainbow, my asshole. Right. I'm going to go get green what. I've eaten these before. A yellow what? Green and yellow, you say. Yeah, so that's what again.
Starting point is 00:30:16 Lemon. Yeah, green is what? Raspberry, I believe. Is it? Or watermelon. It's hard to see from these because they're all speckled with the... Oh, yeah. You see what I mean?
Starting point is 00:30:24 They're all the same shade of orange in that fucking nature, basically. Well, let me go with the green one first and tell you what I think the flavour is. Here we go. Oh, this is watermelon, yeah. Yeah, that's the watermelon. Okay. It's got a bit of heat to it, to be fair. Yeah, nice gummy.
Starting point is 00:30:35 I think they're really nice, these, I have to say. That was all right. Again, watermelon, not my favourite thing. Let's get into the lemon one now, shall we? Oh, this one I like more. This one works better for me. Oh, I like them. They're quite moorish to me.
Starting point is 00:30:46 I would have to, like, take a few out of a bowl and put the breast away. Otherwise, I would probably feel sick eating too many of them and we can go. Because that's the thing about the heat. I kind of feel like it's a very particular flavour profile that you've got to be really into, and I've never really, really been into it. Because I like megummies as they come. Yeah, I like them. I like them hot like that.
Starting point is 00:31:03 I don't like a lot of pageantry with my gummies. Just make it chewy. They make the texture shit and ensure that it actually tastes of the fruit that you're promising it is. No, I like that. This is very much, I think, the influence of Mexican. I'm gonna have one more.
Starting point is 00:31:16 Because we had chili minis. Try that orange one there, yeah. Not a fan of the orange. No? Although I think it's mango. Yeah, it is mango, yeah. In fact, this one makes me thought quite sick. Oh, God.
Starting point is 00:31:24 In fact, they regret it quite a lot now. Yeah, they don't like that one. What's wrong with it? They all taste the same. I don't know why that one. I don't know what can work, mate. Careful. Well, there you go.
Starting point is 00:31:36 That's affected my store, so what? Let me try this one. In fact, yeah, I feel quite nauseous now. Whoa, that's turned. Oh, dear. Oh, dear, that's turned. I love them all. Even my saliva makes me want to be sick.
Starting point is 00:31:48 Okay. Right, okay, I'm going to review that out of... A two out of five. Yeah, I don't know. I always fight with the heat. You know what I think I don't like? I don't like the crumbs. It's...
Starting point is 00:31:59 covered in a sort of sugar and I think they put the spice there as well. I put the heat there. Oh, I don't think it's necessary. I think they're nice. They've got a nice kick. Let me put it this way. They're not repulsive things. They're just not for me.
Starting point is 00:32:11 They're not for you. I'll go four out of five of those. I can't like them. Although they are burning on the way down now. What was that? There was your hands, was it? No. It was your ass.
Starting point is 00:32:22 Now, a very similar product that I saw today. Yeah. Oh, these that you haven't opened. These are virginial to our tongues. These are virginial to our tonguepiece. Stick it on my tongue piece. Wopop, wop, bo. Sorry.
Starting point is 00:32:35 Anyway, these are... Jaritos. Right. Spicy gummies. Right. By canels. And they come in three flavors now. Oh.
Starting point is 00:32:44 Tamarind. Okay. It's just I have... I've played this game before and I always lose. So, go on. Next one. Pineapple. Fine.
Starting point is 00:32:54 And the one that just turned your stomach. Mango. Oh, great. Mango. Hoor. I do a little research on charitos. It's a soft drink from, big brand of soft drink. Oh, no, I know Juritos.
Starting point is 00:33:04 They're Mexico. Oh, no, I love their stuff. Their tangerine is one of my favorite drinks ever. When I used to live in L.A., we used to go to a place called, oh, is it Leptalpa? It was a Mexican restaurant family run, possibly some of the best that Mexican food I've ever eaten whilst us out there. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:33:22 Oh. They always had Juritos sodas. Yes. And I used to buy one for the meal and then buy six to take home me and put in the fridge. Yeah. And you can get them now in Britain, like in, like, restaurant tortilla hasn't. But they're like four quid. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:33:35 It's stupid. Because they're not seen like that in America. They're not an expensive drink. Invented in 1950. Really? They know who invented it, one guy. Jared Toss. Do you know what the...
Starting point is 00:33:45 And you just put his name to go Geritos. Jerry Toss. Okay. Yeah. All right. Okay. Oh, you thought it was good. I'm making a fucking effort.
Starting point is 00:33:51 It wasn't good. Didn't say it had to be good, but at least they're making an effort. Okay. God loves a tryer. I'm trying to... God loves a wanker. Does he? Well, look who gets into power.
Starting point is 00:34:00 And that's Eli's political point. Yes, invented in 1950. Yeah. Do you know, funnily enough, do you know what the original first flavor of Jarito was? Ooh, I'm going to go ahead and say, it was probably Tamarin then. Coffee. Good guess. Oh!
Starting point is 00:34:15 It was coffee. Weird, huh? Wait, a coffee drink. It was a coffee soda, yeah. That's bizarre. I don't think it exists anymore. No. I mean, you could probably buy some of that, you know, like a cold brew coffee that you can get in a bottle.
Starting point is 00:34:27 and stick it in a fucking aeropress type thing. A fissie. Yeah, you know, what's it called? A spousy-wusi. What's it called? A soda stream. Soda stream. Is that what, yeah, that's it.
Starting point is 00:34:36 Sodium, yeah. Put a bit of fizzine or whatever the fucking cat. I used to fucking want one of those so badly when I was a kid. Anyway, sorry, you were saying. Coffee was the first jettitos thing. Yes, and now they have like at least 15 I could see on the Wikipedia page, including they have a cola. It's called Mexican cola-flavored Doritos.
Starting point is 00:34:52 So, oh. Well, crack it open, love. I want to get me toothies on it. Okay. It's a quite, I like the packaging, striking, orange and yellow in that kind of a... What's that company that was peanut butter stuff?
Starting point is 00:35:04 Rees. Yeah, it's like that Rees's colour brand, isn't it? Very similar smell. Yeah. I think this is good... Oh, dear. I had a... I don't care.
Starting point is 00:35:11 Just killed up. Salted egg lobster noodle in a box earlier. It's repeating on me. Good, well. I just thought everyone would want to know that. I know you don't care. I can't see your face. Good.
Starting point is 00:35:21 It's like... It's like a dream. These smell like they're going to pack more of a punch, which wouldn't be... Give a sick. I want to smell. They're little Jarito bottle shapes, like fizzy color bottles. They look, if you don't mind me saying, like a bag of pick scabs.
Starting point is 00:35:34 You know, I know they're meant to look like bottles, but they look more like raisins. They do. They look like little raisins or little squirrel poos. Yeah. And also, they all look the same, so I don't know which is which. There is definite visible chilly dusting. Like darkness compared to the other, but this is a tamarind one. I know this is a tamarind.
Starting point is 00:35:53 How do you know? Smell it. Tamarind has that. They all smell the same. Game. Golf club cupboard smell. Golf club cupboard. I don't know. It's like sports equipment stink. Yeah, get pulled out of the cupboard.
Starting point is 00:36:03 He's been in the golf club cupboard again. He loves it in there. Give me the stroke. Now. Right, I'm going to bite a bit. I'm not going to put the old one in. So this is tamering, then I'm not doing it. Yeah, I just get fucked. I'm sorry.
Starting point is 00:36:14 Oh. I'm sorry. I don't like that at all. No. I got a pineapple one. Never jive with it. That's nice, the pineapple one. Maybe give me another one.
Starting point is 00:36:22 Let me have a look. And I'll, there you go. Pick a different colour because I'm pretty sure. They're all at the fucking say Yeah, but you can sniff it And that smells like tamarin That smells like tamarin They're all just gonna smell like tamarind
Starting point is 00:36:36 Don't just grab another round of one Tamarind No Pineapple Mango Is that more pleasing A little bit In fact a lot more
Starting point is 00:36:43 It's still not a huge fan of them though I like them fine Finally enough I thought they were gonna be hotter But those Fuego No they don't taste hot at all No I know when he pinched a bit
Starting point is 00:36:51 But I had a big enough bite To get a good idea There's any heat And no compared to the Skittles Nothing Yeah, funny. I like those. I like both of those. I'm partial to that. I'm going to go ahead and give the first ones one.
Starting point is 00:37:02 I can't remember for a reviewed them already, but now is my new review. One. And then I think actually the spicy gummy was won by Jaditos. I might actually give 2.5, to be fair, because I think the Tamarin ones, toilet, the other ones, fine. I like them both, and I give them both four. Oh, well, there you go. That's the difference of opinion meaning. They're at my street. Right.
Starting point is 00:37:19 Have you, have you, can I come out? Where have you been? Have you been watching us? Can I sit here? Yeah, no worries. God, thank you. Well, is there a goal. Cupboard, golf club cupboard in there. No, that's that fucking dick and Paul's thing.
Starting point is 00:37:29 I don't do that. No. What is that even referring to? Ask him, I don't fucking know, do I. Dick shit? Paul? Hey, dick shit? Dick shit?
Starting point is 00:37:37 You're a fucking dick shit. You want to see a doctor if you got a shit coming out of your dick? I don't. You do? That's what I'm calling you. Do I? I want to see a doctor there. What's wrong with this fucking guy, Paul?
Starting point is 00:37:46 I don't know. It's weird sometimes. It's like his comebacks are just bad. I don't even fucking know all this cunts. Come on, wanker. We all know. What did you say? Which was your favourite of all these candies?
Starting point is 00:37:56 I need to review. Here's another name might mean something to you. Yeah? Ermatrude. Well, you fucking get out. Get out my fucking shop. All right. I'm trying to fucking start a brand new business.
Starting point is 00:38:06 I'm going to do these reports. Send it back to HQ. Oh yeah. So they can send us more or less. Send it back to Mook you. I think you should just get maybe this flickered candy one, Willie. You think? And then what will you do with it?
Starting point is 00:38:20 Stick it up. No, stock more than one. Me shelves for kids to enjoy. What's the fucking problem with you? Stick up a hamster's ass. Right, that's it. Get him out. Come on out.
Starting point is 00:38:30 All right. You shit. You don't have to man handle me. Get out my shop. All right. I'm going. You can go as well. You've let you.
Starting point is 00:38:36 You're going to be like this going forward. You're not coming back. Oh. Honestly, you're not coming back if you're going to both be like this. Trying to turn over and you leave. You know that? That Brandoff. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:38:47 He was like, do you want 50 quid a go to pop a pig on camera? And I was like, no, I can't fucking do that. more. He goes, go on for content house. Well, you should have said, would you consider a cow, or maybe a cough? No, I don't do that no more. You were never a pig guy. No, I wasn't. I said no to him.
Starting point is 00:39:05 That's why. No to you. It's not an oik record you got there. It's a loud, new, moo-moo record. All right, I'm going. Bye. Get out my shop. Oh, dear.
Starting point is 00:39:15 You've upset him. I couldn't give a fuck. You couldn't even remember his name half a minute and goes. Willie Wangood. He fucking remembers it perfectly fine. Anyway, what's out of here in there? the street. Fucking shh.
Starting point is 00:39:27 A cloud. A cloud and a frog. A frog? Yeah, why not? It's a fucking whatever. It's whatever we wanted to be. Oh, look, there's Margaret Fatcher, rimming a pig.
Starting point is 00:39:35 Hey? Oh, that's what my imagination came up with, just out of the blue. She loved to do that. Did she? She feltched pigs. There's the great soprando making Big Ben disappear. What a magic man.
Starting point is 00:39:46 Let's go on. Has anyone ever done that? Did anyone? He never did that. He just said Piff, puff, puff and made a pack of cart. Yeah, but didn't one of those kind of macho 80s magicians? Who am I thinking?
Starting point is 00:39:54 Well, David Copperfield made the Statue of Liberty disappear, didn't he? Didn't he do that like with Big Ben as well? No, I don't think he did. I think someone's done it with Big Ben. Yeah, because you know how it's really easy to make the Statue of Liberty disappear? Get your whole audience full of plans and then rotate the stage 90 degrees in the opposite direction. I mean, you've got to do it somehow. Anyway, that's what we've done this week on the froth shop.
Starting point is 00:40:16 Now let's take a little breather before we go to Gannham's Golden Games. Nice. Now, Paul, I've decided to do the theme in a different way today. I'd like that very much because you're, if you don't mind me saying, so your Gannon's Golden Games themes are all to dog shit,
Starting point is 00:40:34 so I'd like you to put a bit more musical effort in. This is going to be done in a sort of parody rap style. Oh, that's good. It's Gannon's Golden Games. Let me put you in the frame. You may think that is lame, but it's Gannon's golden game.
Starting point is 00:40:48 All the big names, TV shows around. Yeah, there you go. You should have just stopped where you were ahead, mate. You know what? You did a really tidy, tight little beginning one. It wasn't just left it. You should have just. Oh shit. What's become of me?
Starting point is 00:41:01 I used to have artistic potential as a person. It's because you've gotten lazy. I think creatively you're quite a lazy person. So, you know, I just think that fundamentally, you just, you've given up. No, I'm not having it. I'm going to do it. No. You've angered Silverman now.
Starting point is 00:41:15 Gannis Gold Games. That's what I'm going to say. Just going to say that. Gagia Gold Games. Roll the dice state in the frame. It's time for another Garned's Golden Games. There we go. Right.
Starting point is 00:41:25 All the TV shows. No, don't add. Don't add. You don't you're not good at adding. All the TV shows, they're the ones he knows. He's Gannon's Golden Games. All right, but it's not always board games. Okay.
Starting point is 00:41:34 TV shows, is it, though? Sometimes it's just retro. Sometimes it's TV shows. Sometimes it's other things, don't you know? I tell you what we can do, don't you know? Let's play a game that's a little bit retro. It's Gannon's Golden Games. Yes, Gannon's Golden Games.
Starting point is 00:41:46 And what have we got today? It is a TV show today. It is a TV show today, for a little, enough. And we are playing a board game that I've been sitting on for a while. Oh, have you increased it? Yes. Did you crush it? I crushed it.
Starting point is 00:41:58 be big fat at her. And you put a little fucking fecal mucle ring on it. I've been pulling little tiny Dale Winton's out of my bum hole for days now. Oh, do we have tiny Dale Winton? Stop making me go off on one. Here we go. The reason why is that I've been trying to get this online for a while, but every time I've seen it on eBay, etc.
Starting point is 00:42:15 It's like 50, 60 quid. Anyway, a very kind person sent it in the PO box. A while ago, I think we mentioned it ages ago when it first came up. But on the box cover, you can see that it was bought from a charity shop for £1.50. Nice. So now that I've got it. Great. On Gannon's Golden Games.
Starting point is 00:42:30 The price, it's nice, on Gannon's Golden Games. Yeah. So, let me put you in the frame is Gannon's Golden Games. For those who don't know, Gannon's Golden... Oh, that's not what I'm talking about. What are you talking about? I don't know. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:42:41 I think you are talking about Gannon's Golden Games. I mean, we are in it. We're doing Gannas Goulden Games now. Sweep the market swap is a show. Supermarket sweep, everybody. Now, before we go in, Dale Wenton, right? Dead, yeah? Yes.
Starting point is 00:42:54 He is dead. That's not the most important point to bring off. I just, I like to know when I know. if someone's dead because I'm really bad on that. But he is dead. I can confirm he is in the ground. I didn't misremember that. He's in the ground. He's not kicking a ball, as they say on. He's not kicking a hoop.
Starting point is 00:43:09 Right. So, basically, Supermarket Sweep was a game show. It was originally broadcast in the UK from 1993 to 2001, and it was based on an American show with the same name. And effectively, it was a game show set in a real, quote-unquote,
Starting point is 00:43:24 real supermarket. And what was interesting about the set was, the set was a super market. It was this huge big set, wasn't it? That had loads of aisles and real food and things stacked on the shelves and in the freezers and all sorts. And the idea was, you answered questions. Those questions gave you seconds in the shop to shop. You would grab things. That would be worth points. And the one of the most points would do the supermarket suite at the end where they had to run around the whole shop. And get stuff they needed. And just fucking rob it in the trolley, rob it in the jelly. Now, Paul, I don't know if any of this is picked up in your research.
Starting point is 00:43:53 That's far out. I seem to remember it being something they did on like Radio One. No. as a sort of competition. I mean, I can't say that at some point something similar wasn't a radio competition. I'm sure I heard a radio thing. Bear in mind, you live in the South and I live in the North and our radio station would have been very different. So they might have been on capital. I'm sure it was. Feasible.
Starting point is 00:44:12 If anyone's out there and does remember that, please correct me. No, but the American version did begin in, oh, I'm gone. In the 60s. The original show was broadcast on ABC from December 20th, 1965 to 1965. and then later seasons aired in the 90s on Lifetime. And then it's been kind of on off air ever since. So no sort of main presenter for the TV, the American versions. I could have a look for you if you're really interested.
Starting point is 00:44:38 The main presenters were Bill Malone, David Ruprech. No idea. And Leslie Jones. No idea. Well, Leslie Jones is the actress comedian on Saturday Night Live and was in Ghostbusters and to The Call. That's the same one? Yeah. Oh, she must have done it in the most recent iteration.
Starting point is 00:44:53 She did it between. If you're blah blah blah to 2020 When I think the series has been on IATIS since then The original theme was done by the Dave Brubeck Quartet Try saying that one more time I will not That's gonna have to do And what was their most famous tune?
Starting point is 00:45:09 Take five Yes Do do do do Bado do but do do do do do do They're the epitome pool of what they called Cool Jazz Yeah it was always that kind of needle drop It's like when you want to set a jazz scene
Starting point is 00:45:21 You drop that track and it's like instant Oh I know where I am They were pretty good. Yeah. So that's the TV show, hosted by Dale Winton, who may have been one of the campus game show presenters since Larry Grayson. Since Larry Grayson. You know, Dale Winton, interesting guy, hosted a load of game shows.
Starting point is 00:45:38 He was the game show guy, wasn't he? Famously, Hole in the Wall. Oh, he did hole in the wall as well. Pet Twin Prizes. And also he hosted the National Lottery on and off for a while. He was a big name, wasn't he? He was. And passed before his time.
Starting point is 00:45:51 He wasn't the old. Yeah, that's really young, huh? So in 2018. Heart attack. Do you want me to go into it? Yeah, I kind of morbidly fascinated. Unexplained, but not believed to be suspicious. According to friend Gloria Huniford,
Starting point is 00:46:04 he had a number of things wrong. Arthritis, heart, complaint, chest infection, asthma as well. Wow. The corridor concluded that Winton died of natural quarters. Let's play a board game. It's a Gannon's Gael and Gays. Supermarket sweep. He goes to go, guys, go to that game.
Starting point is 00:46:17 Let's see how the board game works. So, can I just say, last night, I sat down with a board game, and notice one thing straight away, unsealed, never been played with. Nice. I had to pop out all the cardboard bits of things. Love it. Fresh, box fresh. However, the board game is not very related to the TV show in terms of structure.
Starting point is 00:46:39 How the game shows on TV is not how this board game works. Okay. This board game was more of a simple, roll the dice, move around the board, collecting shopping items that you need for your shopping list, and then get bonus items which do have a few quiz elements. There's a quiz element? For the bonus items and the manager special. Oh, I've perked up when you said there's a quiz element.
Starting point is 00:46:58 There is a true or false question, and that allows you to pick up a prize. And if you have those manager specials, then you get bonus points. Can I say true in advance to save time? Yes. I'm joking, man. Hope that bites you in the ass. Oh, it will, undoubtedly. And then you get to the checkout at the end, and then the checkout is this kind of random factor
Starting point is 00:47:17 where, depending on the card you turn over, you could have to wait in a queue for a few rounds. It's a turn or do an errand before you can check out. It's just like a real supermarket. It is. self-service tills? No, because this was made in the 90s, this board game. I believe this board game, hang on. Let me have a look. 97 this came out by a company called Britannia Games, who are, we've come across them a few times, I'm sure. I can't think of anything right now. Yeah, they probably have some other licenses for TV stuff. Similar to this, yeah.
Starting point is 00:47:44 So even though that rule book does look overlong and complicated. It's a rule sheet. Yeah, it's a rule sheet. I mean, more than a, so that, that's a good sign because it's not complicated. You don't have to put it into a book, would you? It looks like there's a lot to learn, But actually when I went through it last night, the game was reasonably simple. Good, let's go for it. You roll a dice. The dice determines which which way you go. When you get to an aisle, because you get given a shopping list at the beginning of the game,
Starting point is 00:48:05 and it's different for both of us. So you have different items to get. And along the way, you can steal people's items if you meet them in the aisle. You can take something from their trolley. There's loads of little things that we can get into once we start playing. I thought we'd just start and get into it. I'm ready to get into it, Paul. Do you have any questions before we get into it?
Starting point is 00:48:21 Just a thought occurred to me. Yeah. You never see Coca-Cola gummies. are you that actually branded Coca-Cola. That's a good point. No, you don't be. I'm sorry, I know it's from the last segment because we did the Jaritos comedy.
Starting point is 00:48:31 But isn't that funny? Anyway, that's not to do with Gans Gold and Gamesport. What character colour do you want to be? There's yellow, blue, orange. Always red, always red. All right, here we go. Red for blood, red for fire, red for fashion. All right, I'll give you a little red, man.
Starting point is 00:48:44 Passion. I'm literally popping it all out the cardboard. Nice. Untouched for possibly close to 20 years. I can see. It's a lovely... No, 7, 17. Almost 30 years this board game.
Starting point is 00:48:54 It's in lovely condition, Paul, has to be said. I'm going to pop out the green. I always like being green. Green is Gannon's colour, for the record. So we've got these little playing pieces, which I have a sort of stand format with a card character. I have a little lady. Yeah, I do too.
Starting point is 00:49:10 They're all the same lady. They're all the same old lady. Just different colour coats. She's got specs on and a little fancy hat. Now, do you remember the show, Supermarket Sweep? Yeah. Did you ever want to be on it? I did.
Starting point is 00:49:21 I want to be on all those game shows where you run around like a fanny doing stuff. I didn't. I wanted to do Funhouse. I mean, I did the Crystal Maze Live, which is close enough. Didn't they have? Correct me if I'm wrong again. But, you know, it's like, I mean, how sort of, what's the word I'm looking for? How crap.
Starting point is 00:49:38 Impressive is, you know, oh, we got a load of olive oil because we needed that as a prize. Didn't they put like stereos on the shelves and things like that? You didn't? Like big ticket items. Yeah, but also you weren't really playing for items that you got along the way. They were just points and prices. I know. At the end.
Starting point is 00:49:55 Yeah, but that was like on top of cash. Like, if you got a certain amount of stuff, there's cash as well, yeah. I think it was a grand prize for a certain amount. Like, I think you had to find. No, that was it. You had to run back and forth, didn't you, and grab things?
Starting point is 00:50:05 Or not a timer. At the same time, throwing things. Then look of a mystery item as they would cost more. And then blah, blah, blah. You'd win if you had the most amount and get a grand prize. And it was a big cash prize. Now, there's your shopping trolley thing. Oh.
Starting point is 00:50:15 It's a little cardboard shopping trolley. And what happens is as you collect the things on your shopping list, you just put them in there, like you rack them up. So they fit in like a jigsaw piece, if you can imagine that. Yes. There are images on our website so you can see what the board game looks like.
Starting point is 00:50:27 However, as ever with this cheap show podcast, playing a board game, which is a reasonably visible thing, it is not great for a podcast. So I'm just getting that out of the way now, all right, I appreciate that. I'm not doing it.
Starting point is 00:50:36 I'm not filming it either. Just that's not happening. Better than when we play the E-Boy. eBay. I don't know. Is that something different you want to confess to? Yes, I use... Is that what you call your boys?
Starting point is 00:50:46 The E-Boys, like Eli boys. Yeah, that's cool. No, it's really fucking not E-E-E-Ly. let's go. We are going to play Supermarket Sweep and remember what Dale Winton used to say. Next time you're at the checkout and you hear their beat. Next time you're at the checkout and you hear their beat.
Starting point is 00:51:03 Next time you're at the checkout and you hear their beat. Next time you're at the checkout supermarket sweep. Woo! Go wild in the aisles. Will you dance with me? So here we go. Supermarket sweep. Now, I have just given Eli a card.
Starting point is 00:51:41 On it, there is a shopping list of items. I see it. And your list is different from mine, so we're going to be shopping for different items. However, it is possible that maybe you have an item I also need, which will allow me to steal if I cross you in an aisle with my trolley. You can stop and take an item from you. That's a rule there, by the way.
Starting point is 00:51:57 That would be against the law. Would it? It wouldn't actually. I don't think it would. Isn't that weird? Yeah, but it would kick off. Yeah. it would kick off, then you'd end up on Instagram.
Starting point is 00:52:06 Yeah. But it's not actually, because if you haven't actually purchased it yet, it doesn't belong to you. It's like taking it off the shelf. I wonder what the law is surrounding that. Don't touch my eggs, you can't. It'll be more like that. It's funny, though, but yeah, they're not your eggs.
Starting point is 00:52:18 No, well, they haven't bought them? Yeah, you haven't bought them? I'll have them. Oh, no, you can't. Who's going to stop me? Not you. Not me. Right, okay, so we both got items on our list.
Starting point is 00:52:28 Also, it says plus any two special offers. Now, on the board, at the top of the shop, They're all the manager specials, right? And then at the side, you've got special offer cards here. I see. Now, on the back of these, it's just a generic fruit, but it's a bonus point. And you can get them by stopping on the... A generic product, you've been.
Starting point is 00:52:44 Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. So I've got bread on that one. Yeah, we'll come to that later. Bread's not a fruit last time I saw. Well, I don't know. Well, bread fruit, that's a fruit. Well, soren. That's fruit bread.
Starting point is 00:52:53 Well, what a major difference, eh? I like a bit sororine. Shut up. Crack it on. Sorry. Right. So, the board is laid out like a supermarket. There are aisles.
Starting point is 00:53:03 all over the place. I think there's like the different groups. So for instance, there's a shelf here which has convenient foods, hot drinks, cereals, preserves, continental, cleaning stuff, kids, toys, health and beauty. You get it, right? Yeah, like a supermarket.
Starting point is 00:53:18 Yeah. To get the special items, you've got to go to the item square, answer a question. If you get it right, you take the top card that has a point on it which become relevant
Starting point is 00:53:24 at the end of the game at the checkout. All right. Manager special is the same. You go there so you can get either one of these, two or one of those, but you've got to get two special item offers. Right on shopping.
Starting point is 00:53:34 Okay, right. Now, there's seven things here, but you don't have to do all seven. So to make it easier for us. We're listening to. How about we do two items? Okay, fine. So I need to pick.
Starting point is 00:53:43 And the two special offers. And the two special offers. Okay. So I need to pick. I reckon we commit to them now. Now, we can even do just the first two on the list, or we can pick two out you specifically want. Let's go for the first two
Starting point is 00:53:52 because it'd be easier to remember. I've quite like the first one on my list as well. Yeah. Now, I don't think you tell each other what it's thing is. No, and I won't. I won't. And we move around the board. Now, when you get to a shelf with the item you're on,
Starting point is 00:54:02 you'll notice it's a stack of items and then empty shelves. Yes. The plan is when you get to an empty shelf, you can turn a card over and reveal the item. And that's when you can pick them up. And is there money to buy the item? So you can just take... No, the money at the end is a whole different thing.
Starting point is 00:54:16 And we'll explain that if we get there. Okay. All you need to know is that you go to an aisle that you want, you turn over a card and you hope that it's the item that you want. Right. The movement is slightly different. Forget the coloured dice. There's three dice with this.
Starting point is 00:54:27 Dice with the coloured spots on are only kind of relevant when it comes to the quiz. his parts. Okay. The other dice is a regular one. And the third diet is a
Starting point is 00:54:35 spiral one. Well, it's got three red targets on and three white targets. So basically it's 50-50s, like a coin. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:54:42 What happens is you roll both dice. So let's just say I roll... The normal dice and the 50-50 one. Yeah. Let's say I roll four.
Starting point is 00:54:48 If I roll a red with that, yeah, it means that I can move up to four if I want so I can stop it two if I need to go somewhere that's only two spots.
Starting point is 00:54:57 Or one. Or one. Or three. Or four. Or do all four. However, if it lands on white, you have to move four stops. I see. I see.
Starting point is 00:55:04 That does have a certain gamemanship to it because it might be on a shelf that's just out of reach. Yeah. Collect them. The minute you get all your stuff, you go back to the checkout and then there's a whole different games play thing going on there. Are you happy with the rules as is as they stand? I feel pretty O-Fay with the rules as they stand as is. Then let's begin. Are you ready to go shopping?
Starting point is 00:55:31 Step inside. a very special supermarket, the only supermarket in the world that gives you money. 2,000 pounds is waiting on our shelves to be won by some lucky person in this store. The aim of the game is to shop smarter and faster than the next person. And everything in this supermarket is up for grabs. Because shopping has never been so much fun. Yes, there's prizes in store and much, much more. Welcome today's shoppers.
Starting point is 00:56:10 Are the host. 20 minutes begin. It's Gannon's Golden Games. Supermarket sweep. Let's go. All right. Who's going to roll first? I'll let you go first.
Starting point is 00:56:36 I don't give a shit because I always lose. Go on. The normal dice... Go! What? What are you doing? I've wasted time. Why is he running?
Starting point is 00:56:46 He's run out into the hall. He's got something. Oh! Dice Tower! We're going to use a 3D printed castle Dice Tower. Dice Tower. Someone sent us a dice tower. Roll down the hill.
Starting point is 00:56:56 Do it. That's a pleasing sound as well it makes. One and white. So you can only move one. Now, which way? Well, anywhere you want. All you can do is you can't go back on yourself. I can go forward.
Starting point is 00:57:07 I can go forward. I can go. Okay. When you travel, you can't go two steps forward, two steps back. You've always got to go in one motion, right? Yeah, I see what you mean. Right. Okay.
Starting point is 00:57:18 My go. Two and white, so I can only move two. Oh, hang on. Which is my items? I've got to check. So, uh, right. so I've got to go, oh, where's for, oh, right, I'm going this way. One, two, your go roll dice.
Starting point is 00:57:38 All right. I've got to, I'm going to head towards where my first item is. Oh, I'm trying to think what my items are, where they are. The first two. So yeah, you've got to check it out. It tells you in a little column to the show, what shelf they're on. So I know where mine are, and I'm just going to run to that. And it tells you the aisle as well so you can head to that.
Starting point is 00:57:54 Each row, it's all set up in rows, this board game, with little aisles in the centre. again images on our website and Instagram but every row is a different shelf and aisle so you know I know where mine is now Eli come on hurry up time's a wasted 18 minutes I can't see where mine are they're on the green you can read the green
Starting point is 00:58:14 all the cards themselves but I know where mine are where's the snacks snacks that's given away there yeah and that's not fucking aisle B is it is B oh that aisle right okay Right, thank you.
Starting point is 00:58:28 Numbers go through and horizontal and the, well, it depends on this is squares, it doesn't really fucking matter, but, you know. I'm going to roll. Yeah, go for it. Oh. Red. One. One.
Starting point is 00:58:38 So I can only do one anyway. Only one anyway. Can I do not do none? You could stay where you are, yeah, I guess. I'm going to do one. Right, there you go. You can do one. You can fucking do one.
Starting point is 00:58:50 Oh, two. Two and two only. Right, one, two. Right, we're off. We're off to the racers, mate. Rolling the day and dice down the tower. Six, why only can move six. He's racing to his aisle.
Starting point is 00:59:02 I know he wants his snacks. He's in the table sauce and canned food aisles as we speak. Right, here we go. Three and red. But I'm gonna probably go there. Hang on, actually. Where am I going? And then what's the other one?
Starting point is 00:59:20 Where's that fucking one? Hey? Where's that? Hey, where was that when I needed it? Hey? Where's, where's from? It's over that corner. Where's Frodo?
Starting point is 00:59:28 Two. Right, I've gone. Eli's, go. Roll the dice in the shopping tower. White four. You can only move four spaces. Can I turn corners? Yes, of course.
Starting point is 00:59:44 Two, three, four. Oh, now you can get a manager special now if you want. Why not? I need one, though. Okay, in that case, you roll the coloured one, and it tells me what question to give you. Because it's like trivial pursuits. Every colour's a different type of food-based question.
Starting point is 00:59:59 I love a food. Red. That's orange, I'd say. Yeah, check it, because there's a red and an orange. No, yeah, you're right. It's orange, yeah. So I think this is a drinks question. Okay.
Starting point is 01:00:10 True or false? A black Russian drink contains gin. True or false? False. It's correct. You can take your first... It's Kalua and vodka, I believe. And milk. No, that's a white Russian.
Starting point is 01:00:22 Oh, yeah, you're right. Oh. I think a black Russian is just without the milk. Okay, yeah, that would make sense. Yeah. Right, okay. Oh, I've got a man to speak. Yeah. What does it say on the side, on the back?
Starting point is 01:00:33 It says free throw. Oh, that means you can play that if you want. Yeah, on your next go if you want, because that goes over now. So now you've got that card, you can roll up your next one twice if you want to. Okay. Yeah. Cool. Right, give us the dice.
Starting point is 01:00:50 There you go. Time to put it in the tower. Five and red. That means you can do anything up to five. One, two, three, four, oh. I'm going to stop on manager special. He's going to get a match. So now I want to roll a coloured dice.
Starting point is 01:01:05 You roll the coloured. Right. You roll that coloured dice. Blue. Right. Yeah, take one from the card. So it's not the same card. I'll keep hold of this one for you.

Starting point is 01:02:14 You'll go. Shoot. Your go. Roll your dice. You didn't get your manager special. That's fine. I've got plenty of time to get another one. I'm hoping to win because I don't.

Starting point is 01:02:31 which is in the corner, which is in five spots away. You can turn one card over, so that's actually what you want to do. Yeah, do that then for me. All right. Thanks. One, two, three, four, five, and then you take the top card from Frozen. I don't want Frozen. Actually, he said where you were going here.
Starting point is 01:02:48 No, it's not. What did you want? Snacks, it's the other end, so please. Yeah. Okay, so, but you have to go all the spots, so which way you want to go? Let me have three away. Hang on. Hang on to go past the shelf.
Starting point is 01:03:01 All right, all right, hurry up. Right, where is... We're not going to get anything done in 20 minutes. I think I've just realized that now. Okay, and vegetables just there. All right. All right. One, two, three, four. He's counting.
Starting point is 01:03:15 One, two, three, five. You've got to go there. All there. All there, yeah. Ory up. Right, my go. Do you have to be next to the cards to actually get a card?
Starting point is 01:03:28 Yes. Right, okay. Yeah, that's why it's kind of about the stopping and starting of the dice. right here we go it's rolling the dice five and red I can stop anywhere I want right I'm gonna go one two three four and turn over my first card in health and beauty and it is dry skin lotion do I need it that's the question well how would we know well I don't but if I want it I have to move on to that square directly now next to the shelf

Starting point is 01:04:17 A packet of skips. I take it that's not what you're after. No. No, dear. Right. I had some skips the other day. Yeah. Nice.
Starting point is 01:04:26 I am not a prone cocktail man. That's not what... Two. I met someone who sniffed your pants and he said it was very much a prawn cocktail kind of flavor. Shut up, you dirty man. No one smells like skips. No one's balls smells
Starting point is 01:04:42 like skips. Mine do. Do they? Of a Sunday morning. Do they? Yes. Your Sunday morning skips balls. And I go, parmesan shaking. No, you don't. I'll tell you what it fucking is, man. Fucking that fishy finger smell. Fisch fingers. What are they cool? What are those fishy? Scampy fries.
Starting point is 01:04:58 Scampies, yeah. Right, anyway. What did you do? I'm going to go, Oh, I had an extra fucking roll. Well, you can do it now maybe if you want. Where's my... There's the dice in there.
Starting point is 01:05:07 There's my manager. Yeah. Right. I see in my list. I just realised. 11 minutes left. We've done fucking nothing. Five, right.
Starting point is 01:05:16 So you can only go five. Yeah, you can only go five. Can I go none? No, you have to go five. Can I go none? You have to go all five. Can I put on a habit? Put on a habit and go none.
Starting point is 01:05:26 Hello. God, mate. If you want to add some comedy to this, be funnier. Come on. All right. I want to win this. Comedy is out the window
Starting point is 01:05:32 for the sake of me winning something. One of us has to get something off the aisle. Right, now, oh, now, interestingly, I've gone next to you, I'm on the same square. It's out loud. Yeah, but what it means is... But I've got to have a roll. Yeah, well, you can roll again if you want now, so do it.
Starting point is 01:05:47 I do want to. Yeah. What does it mean? Well, it means if you had something in your trolley, on my go, I could take it. Right, right, right. And then, you know... I do have something.
Starting point is 01:05:56 Yeah, but I can't do anything with that. Five and red, so you can move up to five. Where's he going to go? He's in the canned fruit and health and lotion segment or whatever it is. I don't know. Two, three, four, five. What do you do? That's it.
Starting point is 01:06:13 Turn out of a canned edge. All right, yeah, yeah, yeah, that's doable. What's the top card he's turning over? What is it? Small peas. Small peas he's got, and I'm judging by that reaction. He doesn't want his small peas. So near, but so far.
Starting point is 01:06:26 So near. Right, five and why. I have to go five spots. Do you have to? Isn't it red? Red means you can stop on every one. Right, white is you've got to commit to all of them. All right.
Starting point is 01:06:37 Are you sure you haven't just reversed that? No. Okay, fine. Right. Hang on. Where's my shopping list? We go, er, and then, where's the, where's fucking that gone? Oh, God.
Starting point is 01:06:48 Okay, I'm going to do this. I'm going to go round the hall. One, two, three, four, five. He's going around the outside. I'm going around the aisles. I'm in soft drinks and canned veg now. Buffalo, Paul, go around the outside. Now, do you want to do two rolls now?
Starting point is 01:07:02 Have we done that? I did that. Yeah, all right, cool. Moving on. Goal. Cool. Come on. Goofing on.
Starting point is 01:07:09 White and four. So I have to go four? Yes. Okay. Now I'm worried that I did swap it around. But I'm pretty sure no red men we could stop whatever we want. Anyway, go on. Are you going past the shelf?
Starting point is 01:07:23 Which one? Where are you? Right. You turn another card over. Yeah. More canned vegetables. What have you got now? Red kidney beans.
Starting point is 01:07:33 Take it. You don't need your red. kidney beans, daddy-o. Oh, fuck. What happens when you fill up all the spaces in that, on that shelf? Can you then, you keep taking that? Yeah, you have to, but then there's one stacked underneath it
Starting point is 01:07:47 and you have to wait for a clear space to be available on the board. Right, four and red, I can move up to four spaces. What say is thou? I'm going to go for another manager special again. One, two, three, and stop. So ask me another question, and I roll the colour dice. Here's the colour dice. Right.
Starting point is 01:08:06 Down the tower. Purple. So you can use the same card again, thankfully. Purple question. Take a chance with me. Now, this is a question regarding food safety, Paul. Nice, I'm glad. Butter cream.
Starting point is 01:08:20 Yes. What the fuck that is? Butter cream? Yeah. What's butter cream? It's like a sweeter cream, isn't it? It is. It's like you use it in like desserts and cakes and things.
Starting point is 01:08:29 Is it butter milk? Is it also filled out? Basically, yeah. Okay, I've never heard of it. Butter cream, Paul. You use it in baking, do you? I would. Okay.
Starting point is 01:08:38 Butter cream will not last more than a week in a fridge. True or false? True? False. Oh, I can't do it. I've got three weeks here. Really? So you can have it up to three weeks in the fridge?
Starting point is 01:08:50 You know, but think about butter. That lasts a couple of months in the fridge. Yeah, holy. I was very conservative with my guest then. Anyway, your go. Okay. So far, we've got nothing in our trolley because your manager special. I've got a manager special.
Starting point is 01:09:01 Yeah, but it's not worth anything. It's a special. move thing in it right two and red I can go to yeah you're gonna go to skips or snacks is you go to snacks tear the card over on snacks here uh no in that space cheddars cheddars mini cheddars in fact that's what i scrape off my nut sack into a trough can you make that like is that the only gag you've got when it comes to like today i'm sorry yes like because everything today has been ball bag related can i just say that Amazon that sec.
Starting point is 01:09:36 One and white. One. I'll do nothing there. I can't really do nothing there. Although I wouldn't... Three and white. Mate, I've just reread the rules and it's my mistake. You don't have to be right on the stack.
Starting point is 01:09:49 You can turn it over if you're against the aisle. So that will quicken things up. It's all right. We've got what left? Seven minutes. So it's white. I have to go through it. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:10:01 But now you can turn a card over it. You don't need to worry about it. Oh, I want that. Oh, that's good. But you do have to land on that, though. You do. But you've got one, two, three, four, five spaces available to do that on. Oh, any adjacent space.
Starting point is 01:10:13 Yeah, because you're at any adjacent. Looks like we're getting somewhere here. We're speeding it up now. We're speeding up, people. Are you excited? Two in red. I'm going to go health and safety and flip that over. Not health and safety.
Starting point is 01:10:26 What? Drott skin cream. Oh, that's just like my Parmesan bollocks. There we go. That's the cat is catchphrase. That's just like, insert weird word here, bollocks. Give my nuts sack a gentle grating and shake. Roll it.
Starting point is 01:10:40 Roll it, baby. Oh, it smells like parmesan. Roll it, baby. Oh, right. You got your two dice. Four and red. Four and red. So you can pick that peas up now.
Starting point is 01:10:51 Yay. You've still got to move your peas. Where do you want it? There. Swan space. What do you want to do? Yeah. All right, fine.
Starting point is 01:10:56 My go. Because he's now got an item, which means if the timer runs out, you win. Bigger piece. Right. Do you know that brand bigger? Five and red. I'm going to just go here. Right, which means if I turn this over. Nail and lotion.
Starting point is 01:11:13 For you and balls. Stop it. Not everything is for my balls. You can tighten them up like a young boy's if you put... Stop it. Move on. Roll the dice. I don't need tight balls. I do. You do need tight balls.
Starting point is 01:11:27 I would like tight balls, but it's not happening without major surgery. six. Hello, I'm major surgery. Hello. Snip, snip. Six red, that's powerful. Where do you want to go now there? That's about as powerful as you can get in this game.
Starting point is 01:11:38 Where do you want to go now? I'm going to snacks. Four. Snacks again. Right. Here? Yeah. Oh, I need those.
Starting point is 01:11:48 Well, you know, you can't move it to your next go. But I can get it. I can do it there. All right, my go. I'm going to fucking win. Five. You must go five. He rolled whites with.
Starting point is 01:12:01 the five and he must go five. Is that right? Yes, that is right. One, two, three, four, five. Ha, ha, you can't land on that square now. I don't have to be on that square. I can be on the square I'm on. No, you've got to be on the exact square you need to pick up the item. Are you against it?
Starting point is 01:12:19 No. So roll the dice, see what happens, big boy. Ho, ho. My God, that salted egg noodle is repeating like a metronome. Come on, hurry up. I might lose this. It's going to lose. Two in white.
Starting point is 01:12:29 You have to go two spaces. so you can't even stop on where you want to. Get out. Right, my go. This is hewn up. Take a chance with me. Six and red. The most powerful combo in the game.
Starting point is 01:12:43 That one. No, that's me, that's me. That's me. One, two. And I'm taking me Vaseline card. Hooray. Something goes in the basket finally. Ray.
Starting point is 01:12:54 Eli's go. We've both got one item. Four in red. I'm taking the Hoonahoo. Oh, he's taking the oloops. He's just popped into lead. I win. Wait, we haven't finished yet.
Starting point is 01:13:05 We've got four minutes. Fuck off. I win. I've got both of my answers. Yeah, but you've got to get a bonus item from the side. The manager special don't count. Okay. One bonus, two bonus items I need, right?
Starting point is 01:13:16 Yes. Okay. No, four and white. You must go four. Right. And you're the green, remember. One, two, three, four. Special offer.
Starting point is 01:13:24 Give us a question. Roll the coloured dice. Here we go. Purple. So you might need another car. You've already asked me a purple. Do you want to another one? Just take it from the back.
Starting point is 01:13:36 This is all in the original rack. Yeah, I can. I just opened it just now. Purple, yeah? Purple. Now, true or false, Paul? Yes. Double cream.
Starting point is 01:13:45 Oh, another fucking cream question. It's a lot of dairy based on the purple. Right. Double cream is used to make Stilton cheese. Oh. You know where you can find it's naturally occurring Stilton? In you testy bags, yes. Double cream, still.
Starting point is 01:14:01 And cheese. Do you think that's true or false? I think that's false. It's true, mate. Oh, fuck off with this! Sorry, mate. Come on, three minutes. I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
Starting point is 01:14:09 I said, only reason why I said true is because I've always said false, and I should just get with it. Six and three in red. Follow your heart. Where are you going? I'm going to go towards... One, two, three. Right.
Starting point is 01:14:21 Towards the manager special. Oh, I mean, uh, special item. Or whatever the fuck it's called. Three and wife. You must go three. One, two, three. There you go. I'm going to roll the dice. Roll it.
Starting point is 01:14:35 Two minutes, 40 on the clock. Six and red. It's very powerful. Six and a head. Boom. I won one of those. Question. Roll the coloured dice.
Starting point is 01:14:42 Roll the coloured dice. And I'll ask you a question. Orange. Orange. Right. True or false? The main ingredient of bestimal sauce is milk. True or false.
Starting point is 01:14:53 True. It's correct. Yeah. Eli's fucking won this game. A fucking cunt. Wow. Right. Come on.
Starting point is 01:15:01 I, sometimes you, I win. Three and white. You have to go three. One, two, three. There you are. Eli's go. Quick, two minutes left. Still do this.
Starting point is 01:15:10 Two and white. You must move two. Wild in the aisles. Wild in the aisles. Did he used to say that? Yeah. Two and white. One, two.
Starting point is 01:15:20 Quick, your go. None of this. None of this. None of this. Four and red. He can move up to four if he wants. He's going in the full four. He's right, follow me up the right up the aisle.
Starting point is 01:15:31 I'm following me up the aisles. I'm going to get my other. manager special? Right up my aisle to get the manager special. Yes, like my balls. Sorry. Roll the wrong. Dives.
Starting point is 01:15:40 Yes, get that out of there. Get the coloured one out there. It's confusing. And red. I'm going to stop on the other special offer table at the other side. Now, roll the colour dice. I'm getting excited. Blue.
Starting point is 01:15:52 All right. Get me with a blue one. I need this. Are you ready, Paul? Yeah. True or false. Bojolet. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:16:00 Is? Is. Is. A white wine. True or false? Bourgeois. Yes, true. It's false, four.
Starting point is 01:16:07 Come on, now. Please, Paul. It's red, bro. It's red, mate. It is red. I just realized it's red. I overthought that. We'll go.
Starting point is 01:16:15 We've got one minute left. I'm going to lose. Here you go. I'd just like to get my other man's a special. One. Three. One and red, sorry. Right.
Starting point is 01:16:27 Four and white. You must go four. One, two, three, four. I don't need that, but I'm going. and turn it over anyway. What is it? Bake beans. Yeah, baked beans.
Starting point is 01:16:35 Bangers rather bangers. It's bangers. It's bangers. Right. One and red. Right. Oh, well for you. Yeah, go on making those difference.
Starting point is 01:16:46 Look, red. Three and red. Oh, that's all right. Actually, I do want to do that. Stop. And then turn that over. Stew and beef dumplings. Nice.
Starting point is 01:16:54 Yeah, I don't need it, though. 15 seconds left. What can we cram in? Six and zero. You must move six. Three, three. four, five, six. Doesn't really matter, really like.
Starting point is 01:17:05 You've won anyway. Yeah. But I'll do it. One last go. One last row of the dice. Red and five. So I can just go here and then still turn that over. Oh, chicken dippers.
Starting point is 01:17:17 I can take it. Hey. You can't bloody take it because it's not next to you. It was because it landed on the square I was on. Oh, fuck. Anyway, you still win because you've got a manager special or whatever it's called. I blew a special offer. And I've got both my items.
Starting point is 01:17:30 Yeah, I got both my items, but no. Managers special. I mean, you mean special offer. Yeah, either way, Eli, even though we didn't get to checkout, I was ahead. You were ahead. When the time was called, yes. So, in the real nations.
Starting point is 01:17:42 In the real game, obviously, we could have spent this up if I'd read the rules again briefly on that segment. But, however, the end is, if you get to the checkout, you turn a card over, and it says something like, Q of 1, miss a turn, which means you have to wait until everyone else has had there going that round before you can win. A lot of these board games have a similar sort of... Miss two turns.
Starting point is 01:18:02 They have a similar sort of obstacle to hitting the final end. It's like with trivia pursuits, you have to get it exactly right. It's like this one as well. Short of money, which means when you flip over the checkout card, put any item on your shelf back and then return the checkout. Well, fuck you up. So you can have to go back to an empty spot on a shelf and then put things on. And most people are trying to get seven items rather than just two.
Starting point is 01:18:21 But it did say in the rules you can choose to do less items than you like. Yeah, it says you can do it at your own speed. That's quite good. It's quite good so you can adjust it there in the corner. Yeah. But, okay. I didn't like it. I thought it was all right.
Starting point is 01:18:34 I've played much worse board games based on TV shows. It's not terrible. It's not terrible, but I don't see, I didn't see any room for strategizing. It's just basically just a race game. It is, but think about it. We had it a limited time. If you'd had something in your box that I wanted, I could have. There could have been some shenanigans on with that. And all those kind of things.
Starting point is 01:18:51 It's not terrible. And it's easy to pick up. And so it's fine. Design these little cards, I don't know. Also, just doesn't matter anyway, but there's a pick and mix card here. again, you collect it with a question. However, if you have it, it means when you get to checkout,
Starting point is 01:19:05 you don't have to do any of this bullshit. You just basically instantly win. So that's that. Where are you going? Oh, it's come on automatically. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. It comes on automatically,
Starting point is 01:19:14 and we haven't turned it off. And also the sun's coming in from this window as well. It's boiling. So it's hot. It's very hot. Anyway, I'm going to go ahead and give this a kind of 2.5 out of five
Starting point is 01:19:24 rolls of the dice. I'd concur there, poor. It was always all right, fun. It's always enjoyable to win. I don't often win. I know. Well, yeah. All I will say is would you be interested
Starting point is 01:19:36 in the American board game version of this? Absolutely. Because one does exist. And it's probably, apparently, more close to the TV show and structure. Oh, cool. So maybe it has little plastic trolleys you can fill. Maybe, but it's more new.
Starting point is 01:19:47 I know it's more new. So it probably does it have more toyetic elements I'd be hoping for. I'd hope so too. But there you go. That's Gannon's Golden Games for this week. Time to sign off. Gannon's Golden Games.
Starting point is 01:20:04 Ladies and gentlemen, and boys and girls of all ages. That was another episode of Cheap Show. I hope you had as much fun listening as we had pretending to make it. Pretending to have fun. I hope you pretend to have as much fun as we pretended to care about making it. It's a whole mirrored pretence world of flimsy article. Flimsy whimsy is what it is, basically.
Starting point is 01:20:23 Flimsy whimsy, that's what my ex used to call my nut. Stinky flimsy whimsy, she'd say. And then she'd have a big old huff and like big flakes. of Parmesan bald skin, would all swirl up... When you're finished, can I give information about the live show?
Starting point is 01:20:41 Yes, swell up her nostrils. As of this episode going out, tickets for Cheap Show 500 will be made publicly available. It's been available for a week already with our Patreon supporters. They've got first dibs. They got early access.
Starting point is 01:20:55 But now, as of this episode, you can go to... Well, actually, if you go to our website, there'll be a link there. If you go to the metadata or the description of this podcast in your podcast player, you will also see
Starting point is 01:21:05 a link of there to get tickets. £12.23rd of August, Sunday, 2006. We'll be at Cambridge Junction venue, the J2 Room, and we'll be there from 4 till 6th and their meet and greet after. As it stands, we've got a great show coming up. We've been asking for special guests, and so far they've said yes. So that's good. We've got surprises.
Starting point is 01:21:29 It's going to be a big fun show. Yeah. No spoilers, but yeah. If you enjoyed three on three. and it's machinations that's what we're aiming for with 500. So, that gave me a little shock. There is also, with a little bit of luck,
Starting point is 01:21:43 if you can't make it to the live show, you can't make it to Cambridge, then we will be trying to live stream the event at the same time, live. However, that might mean, well, no, it will mean a fee to help cover the costs of putting that together because it ain't fucking cheap.
Starting point is 01:21:55 It's pay per view. Yeah, kind of, actually. But once it does get, once it is out there, we will release it eventually later, probably on YouTube. So don't bother paying. No. I know.
Starting point is 01:22:07 We don't say that because you actually need to do this so we can talk about. I know. I was undercutting you for comedic effect. Don't do that when it involves the finances of this dumb fucking podcast. Oh, Jesus. Christ. Don't talk about money around Paul. Yeah, well, what?
Starting point is 01:22:18 Do you want your little blood money for this fucking... How about you shut your little mouth, baby? Oh, spitty. Spitties. Sorry. It's because the sunlight's behind you. Yeah. You usually spit that much normally.
Starting point is 01:22:30 Yeah. People don't see it. Invisible flex of saliva and the wind. Apologies. Anyway, live tickets available now for Cheap Show, 200, 500. Fucking hell. Cubs seals. It's going to be a really cool live show with lots of fun and surprises.
Starting point is 01:22:45 We want you all involved. And yeah, that's it. We're looking forward to it. That's the admin. Everything else on our website, the Cheapsaw.com. At UK is your one-stop shop. Go there and you'll find us everywhere else on the internet from that spot. Every two weeks, cheap shots on YouTube or YouTube series.
Starting point is 01:23:00 I've just put one out about my Ghostbusters badge collection. One of our best videos, I think you'll grow. Put it out for patrons. No, yeah, but as of this episode going out, it will have been released two days ago on the Wednesday. On the Wednesday, yeah. What else? Patreon.com forward slash cheap show

Starting point is 01:23:28 I just said simple. But that's even worse. It's not, though, because I was saying that was a simple action that you can do. It's very simple. All right. So, that's it. We'll see you next week. Where we'll either be cockerhoop or strangely subdued and quiet. Who knows? You'll find out next week. Thanks for listening, everybody.
Starting point is 01:23:47 Thank you, everyone. Take care and remember. Bye. Bye.
