In 1979, the cast and crew of Rainbow made a special edition for the Thames TV staff Christmas tape. This show featured plenty of intended sexual innuendo, and although not shown at the time (as it was never intended to air), it has since been aired for the amusement of those who grew up with the show.

- diafel, on 10/12/2007, -14/+141ebaumsworld watermark means you fail.
- rand21althor, on 10/12/2007, -5/+46Ah, that makes sense, then.

Someone needs to get that muppet penicillin. - insomniacdude, on 10/12/2007, -3/+30eBaumsworld sucks anyway. They blatantly steal and disregard any intellectual or actual copyrights on materials when they put things on their site, plaster their watermark on it, and claim it as their own.
- DanteDefiance, on 10/12/2007, -1/+24OK I'm going to need the enitre box set of this show and at least an ounce of weed.
- aquadoguk, on 10/12/2007, -3/+25"Rainbow was a children's television series in the United Kingdom which ran twice weekly at 12.10pm on Tuesdays and Fridays on the ITV network, from 1972 to 1992. It was intended to develop language and number skills for pre-school children, and went on to win the Society of Film and Television Arts Award for Best Children's Programme in 1975."

- brandiniman, on 10/12/2007, -4/+24Oh my god there's just one liner after one liner here... Genius.
- adml_shake, on 10/12/2007, -0/+17Go watch some of the Old Pee Wee's playhouse episodes, Miss Yvonne, Cowboy Curtis, and that Mexican sports guy all had something going on....
- arkmtech, on 10/12/2007, -0/+17I still find it crazy that 'Cowboy Curtis' went on to play Morpheus in 'The Matrix' series...
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -1/+18I watched this show as a kid. It's the original cast alright.
- zambuka, on 10/12/2007, -1/+17The ounce of weed kinda goes with almost all the kids TV shows from the 70s.

< /annoying >
... sheesh ...
I don't really know how old this video is, but there are a lot of people (like me) who have never seen it before.
Just because a video (or any other media) is old, it doesn't mean that everybody has seen it. Give it a break already.
Dugg - dvddesign, on 10/12/2007, -2/+12I kinda remember this being on some other site awhile back, and was suprised to see it get dugg with people not knowing what's going on with this clip.
Sadly, as fun as the 70s appeared to be, no one got to be this subversive, even in the UK. - Philbert, on 10/12/2007, -0/+9If you've ever seen Paul Reubens doing Pee Wee as stand up before the show started there was some pretty dirty stuff in there too. BTW Pee Wee's Playhouse The Movie comes out next year.
- inmatarian, on 10/12/2007, -0/+7I can't wait until Digg takes an interest in Lazytown.
- eatbeefjerky, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6Wow.....
Add a line of crack and this would be the British Wondershowzen. - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4ok ok, so it's an old video...
what matters is that it's still hilarious and totally worth watching! The use of innuendo is pure genius! - bouche, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5Still worth a laugh.
- theone3, on 10/12/2007, -2/+7*rimshot*
- twisterrust, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6Here is the reading for this clip
http://rainbow.arch.scriptmania.com/rainbow_tv_episode.html - azra3l, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5grammar *cough*
- wyrdness, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6Of course it's inappropriate. That's what makes it so damned funny.
- gaijin, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5But way before PeeWee he was in "Apocalypse Now"
- tomi, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4Now remember, you can bounce your balls at the same time if you'd like. Or, if you haven't got any balls, you can ask a friend, if you can play with his!
- spudnic, on 10/12/2007, -2/+6It didn't? Many people read into The Magic Roundabout and would disagree with you there
Okay it wasn't *this* subversive, but still - joeydoo, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4Jim Davidson is a *****.
- avolant, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4well... its a comedy video. and its digg..so.. lighten up, its funny stuff.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4Mr. Show = win.
- nerdbaby, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3http://www.ebaumsworldsucks.com/
- philmiller, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3holy crap! sounds something like Melanie Martinez, except she lost her job because of the spoof
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Melanie_Martinez
I have kids and spent more nights than i would like to admit watching her, very funny. - trigger0219, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3i know this was lightly mentioned, but when i first saw this video it was told to me that it was a stunt all the shows did on that channel to show each other and get a good laugh. definitly not intended for children viewing, funny as hell, nonetheless.
- dvddesign, on 10/12/2007, -3/+6You must watch Jay Leno.
- kag9000, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3Ah found it, it's rather poor quality though
http://625.uk.com/sh1t/index.htm - kag9000, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2There is also footage, haven't found it on the net yet, of crass comedian Jim Davidson with Zippy and George live on stage.
It is very funny, very adult and I would love to see it again. Can anyone help? - Tripcast, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3It's old, but its still good :)
kag, i've seen that footage and even though I hate Jim Davidson, it's funny. - faz9, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2The title is rather misleading. It wasn't aired as a kids tv show. It was made as a joke and wasn't aired at the time (as the first post says) but it has been aired in recent years, late night on tv for adults who use to watch this show when they were kids.
- SgtCrispy, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Unaired or not. Ebaum involvement or not. That was farking hilarious!
- HalfBurntToast, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Apart from being one of the funniest things I have ever seen, that was wrong on so manny levels. But from what I see above it wasn't aired to children (I hope). Very funny.
- aximbigfan, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2did you just figure that out moron?
- BrienD, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3I couldn't help but think of Druggachusetts
"I declare this pizza to be awesome!" - M2Ys4U, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2awesome, thanks! I can't view the vid 'cos I'm at college but the transcript made me lol.
- kevin_ou, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2I've never seen it before...thanks aquadoguk
- dacheetah, on 10/12/2007, -4/+6What do you mean kids today? This video is from the 70's, it's like 30 years old? Also, ALL CAPS AND REALLY ***** GRAMMER WILL GET YOU DUGG DOWN, regardless of how stupid your comment may or may not be (Partly because no-one has a clue what you are trying to say).

Dude you didn't even use your annoying tag properly.
