We're taking our You Bet! Time Machine back to the summer of 1993, where the sun shining, and Matthew Kelly had four delightful celebrities to deal with!

It's episode 15 of You Bet Pod - with Matthew Kelly tasking the reigns and lauding over proceedings with footballer Vinnie Jones, actor Wendy Richard, rugby player Ben Clarke and legend DJ Normski!

The challenges are as mad as ever obviously - how about a man sminning backwards in a pool, balancing a two metre stick on his chin which has a candle attached to the top, where he is attempting to burst balloons?! Yeah, exactly! More of that please!

Other things discussed this week:

👈 Another Fred West reference

😜 Is the Mr Vain joke, the best joke of the podcast so far?

🧑‍🎤 Stew does a rap

🤪 We discuss if The Crazy Gang were actually pretty awful human beings!

We are back with another one, and it's a pretty special one too - it's Matthew Kelly's first ever episode! Join us as we take the You Bet! time machine back to 16 February 1991, as Matthew Kelly is joined by 'Allo Allo star Vicki Michelle, Olympic gold medallist Nick Skelton, and Barnsley's favourite actor, Brian Glover.

The challenges are as bonkers as ever, including two firemen trying to blow up and pop a balloon through 300 metres of fire hose, a child off his shark knowledge and a guy on a motorbike trying to knock off coconuts on traffic cones!

The challenges are as mad as ever, including two German men who say they can identify five different cars just by listening to the sound of the doors being shut! It's classic You Bet!

Welcome to a very special episode of You Bet Pod. This episode features an interview with the one and only, former You Bet! co-host for five season, Ellis Ward! We were honoured to speak to Ellis about her time in You Bet!, and other areas of her career as well. Ellis talks about being a dancer at the Moulin Rouge at 16 years of age, spending six months living in Japan, and much more.

She then talks about her time on You Bet!, what it was like to work with Sir Bruce Forsyth and Sir Matthew Kelly (it's just a matter of time!), and all the challenges, celebrities and forfeits that were a part of the show.

Thanks to Ellis for allowing us her time to take a trip down memory lane....
