Tickling gameshows?

[bellytickling]

Just wanted to know if anybody knew of any gameshows that involved tickling? I think I remember reading a post a while back about a show from England. Does anybody have videos or remember it? thanks for any help.

Well...

I have no idea the name of the show but I recall coming across a clip of some foreign Italien gameshow that has challenges for contestants. If they beat the challenge they win the money. The case in point is the one woman I saw in the clip had to have he bare soles licked by goats for a period of time. If she could go the time without laughing she'd win the cash prize. So you know she won.

"Anything for Money". It was a show that was on in the late 80's. It had 3 scenes of women being tickled. The guy would offer the woman 10.00 to allow him to tickle her for thre minutes. One woman agreed for 50.00. Another for 210.00. One woman eventually ran away. The one for 210.00 was the best one.

I personally don't know any tickling shows in the UK, although you may be thinking of "Don't Try This At Home", when a few women were put in stocks and I think an animal licked dog food off their soles. I missed it and I'm pissed off about that! Other than that, no joy...

"wheel of Tickles" was on in the summer of 2000. vanna white and pat sayjak co-hosted.

don't even ask what you had to do to buy a vowel.

I saw that, it was quite good, unfortunately the women weren't the most ticklish in the world.

I think I might have made the post you're referring to. It wasn't a tickling quiz show exactly, but was Endurance UK which is the British equivalent of a mental Japanese gameshow, called Endurance. (When-o-when are they going to do a British equivalent of Takeshi's Castle?) The endurance challenges were usually horrible and involved some physical stamina whilst something truly horrible was being done to the contestant. Quite often this involved mess, gunge or larvae swimming in either of the above. Quite naturally the contestants were barefoot when it was especially icky; shoes don't wash as well as shorts and t-shirts. The instance in question was when two ladies were stretched out horizontally, holding onto a bar that was attached to a stretched elastic cord. Their feet were hooked between two rubber bars. They had to both hold onto the bar against the pull of the elastic AND keep their feet through the bars. Losing grip at either end would forfeit the challenge to their opponent. The catch was that buckets of brown liquid were being dumped on their upturned faces, followed by bowls of wriggling maggots, which seemed very cheerful indeed about the mess; crawling inside nostrils, mouths and ears with abandon. After a couple of minutes neither girl had let go, so the two Japanese geezers who assisted the host, Paul Ross, produced two stiff bristled hairbrushes and proceeded to scrub them across a bare sole of either girl. Within a few seconds the extra torture was enough for both and their feet slipped clear of the bars.

Now why can't more shows be like that?

Hopefully never! The original is fun enough - well the dubbed one anyway, Craig Charles is hilarious on it. I'm amazed they get away with his innuendo-riddled piss takes, unless that really is a direct translation of some original voiceovers

Hi Folks,

There was another gameshow recently in the UK (I only saw one episode). It was called Distraction. Contestants would try to answer questions whilst being thumped, stung with a towel, wrestled by thug like guys or tickled by 2 blondes with especially sharp fingernails.

I only saw one show, this time there was a male tickled on his feet for 30 seconds whilst he attempted to answer questions.

Did anyone see it? If so, were there female ticklees too? It was on Channel 4.

Cheers

Hey Grolim, I saw your first post on the UKTF just a few minutes ago. Nice to see you de-lurked. elcome aboard the community. 🙂

I never saw that one, although I've occasionally played the tickle quiz myself. I only tickled in the event of a wrong answer though.

True enough, they'd probably make a total bollocks of porting it accross to Britain. I think the Smeg-Man is funny as hell too. He probably gets away with it because it's on cable TV instead of terrestrial. Less the miserable bastards with no SOH can do to interfere I suppose.

The games are truly bone-crunching, especially Stepping Stones and High Rollers. It's bad enough when adults do it, but I saw an episode the other week where it was bloody kids! 12 year olds or close were getting their ribs stove in on the stones and were falling doubled up from the rollers. I swear to God if they tried something like that here the NSPCC would be up in frigging arms.

tickling gameshow again

I don't know if it was a british gameshow or not. I think they had people from the audience come on stage and had guys lick stuff off the females bellies. I remember reading a post that someone had videos of the show. I also think they did it on the feet also.

Would that I could my hot British friend...I'm deathly afraid of flying (I pretty much cry thru the whole trip, pathetic and neurotic, I know!) and only do it when absolutely necessary (weddings and funerals) By best friend's little sis is getting married in Fort Lauderdale so I'll go to that but it won't be until NEXT spring I'm afraid! (Damn!)
