I don't believe that it was really broadcast without someone catching it. In many places it's totally contrived.

I agree. It's completely contrived. I don't believe for a moment that this was real.

The show is real enough.

Ahh, here it is.

quote:
The "Adult" version
In 1978 the cast and crew of Rainbow made a special edition of Rainbow for ITV staff. This show featured plenty of sexual innuendo and although not shown at the time, it has since been aired for the amusement of those who grew up with the show.

I figured it might be something like that.

Well, I, for one, am now imagining innuendo spoof shows for Barney, the Teletubbies, and Dragontales.

Thanks a lot, CalvinMaker.

The show is real; the clip was made for an in-house party.

Really Shmuel? After having read the entire thread, and all the posts and links contained in the thread, I would never have guessed that.
