Re: Wow, the British screwed up PiR more than Drew Carey.

The video needs bolding. What is the relevant footage?

Pretty much everything, but the host in general.

This doesn't seem that different than our version of The Price is Right. Maybe a bit more reserved, but the British are typically that way.

Re: Wow, the British screwed up PiR more than Drew Carey.

I can't understand a single word from anyone on this show. And why does the host look like KD Lang?

Re: Wow, the British screwed up PiR more than Drew Carey.

I remember seeing The Price is Right in Colombia. There's roughly a 1000:1 to 2000:1 exchange rate (over the past 15+ years), so the initial prizes were like a wooden boat or an alarm clock radio. Of course you had to guess if it was worth 10,000 pesos or 30,000.

Re: Wow, the British screwed up PiR more than Drew Carey.

This version has since been cancelled, iirc.

I don't know why people put Drew down constantly... he's got his own style and the show is getting better every day. (and yes, I watch and DVR it every day... I'm the oldest 25-year-old I know, lol)

That's a strange accent. Cockney and he has a really high pitch. He sounds like a British grandmother more than anything.

EDIT: HE SOUNDS LIKE MS. DOUBTFIRE. I'm not even kidding.

The host is an interesting fellow to say the least.

Sadly, he apparently died today from crap jokes.

LOL. Wow. I've never seen so much concentrated hate on a Wikipedia entry.

Yeah, and I thought Brits felt Denis Norden was the epitome of bad comedy.
