I remember hearing this live when I was at work, it was absolutely comical. DLT with his darts, snooker and great music on the weekend morning shows were really something to look forward to

Back in the days when radio was about entertainment - The Radio One Roadshow, Steve Wright in the afternoon, Our Tune, the talk between the presenters when they handover and the breakfast shows which was an entertainment production. Times has changed but listening to Radio One in the eighties was a pleasure compared to now.

Remember listening to this live,couldn't get out of the car till it finished 😂😂

25 years later and I'm still laughing my ass off at this Gotcha 😂😂😂

Listened to it on a Saturday at work , great radio . Back in the day Radio 1 was the station to listen to , all change today and not for the better .

Come back both of you , the world was a happier place when listening to you on the now boring radio.

I remember when this happened, I was absolutely gobsmacked and couldn’t understand why the teams were doing so badly! When the Gotcha was announced I laughed my head off!!

I remember listening to this with my wife in the car and all we could think was how stupid some of these people were. It was so well done live, that we had no clue that it was a setup. One of Noels best Gotcha's

Radio one in those days was very interesting, entertaining and funny and i loved listening to it at work. Noel, DLT, Simon Mayo, Steve Wright. etc.

I remember radio one on a Saturday morning it was a joy. I’m sure 20 year olds nowadays don’t feel the same.

This was a great gotcha and ranks as my all time favourite along with Richard Whiteley's. But DLT's revenge the following week in the last show of the series was even better. Saturday nights haven't been the same since House Party ended. When this show was on form it was peerless.

where would you find a dead man's handle? a hearse. I laughed so bloody hard it hurt!

I remember this! So funny. Bring back the Radio One roadshows!

Remember sitting in the car round the corner from my granny’s house waiting for the quiz to end. It was usually over before we got close to her house. We were very late with tears streaming down out faces when we arrived at her door

I remember driving up the M5 on that morning in my opal manta listening to this on the radio and thinking what a load of thick prat’s but it was great listening.😊😅😂

I actually remember listening to this on the radio the day is was recorded!!

The golden days of FUN radio - pity that they are now long gone...

When life was good so timeless x

Absolutely brilliant , radio quiz show at its best , how DLT kept going i dont know 😂😂

When Saturday nights were worth watching on TV. Novel's House Party was hugely popular. The gotchas were amazing. They were totally convincing and the victims very rarely were suspicious.

Radio 1 in the eighties was the best time for bbc and it’s djs

I remember listening to this on the radio. It was funny as hell. I was screaming answers at the radio.

I remember painting in my garage when this was on air... couldn't believe how thick they were... then it came on as a gotcha… nice one

Remember listening to this as it was broadcast on Radio 1, so well done, from the very start, gradually winding DLT up,,,and up,,,

Fantastic. I remember listening to it on the radio and we were 😢 with laughter. 2 great dj's back in the day. Great times...

LOL! "YOU are a dead man!" This is the one Gotcha moment I've always wanted to see. Cheers for putting it up!

Bring this back,loved noels house party

I used to like listening to the 'hairy cornflake' DLT on his breakfast show in my Dads car on the way to school in the late 1970's. Miss you Dad

DLT is a radio legend and this gotcha was so funny. Noels House Party - when Saturday night TV really was light family entertainment.

I loved noels house party it was very good there is no shows like it now I never believed what they said about dlt the press killed him

"What's a male bee called?" "Bumble" 🤣🤣🤣

I think DLT’s reaction was the best in ALL of the Gotchas.

noel edmonds hasn't changed his look for the past 30 years

The Hairy Cornflake... He was fantastic

I heard this live on Saturday morning at work in Brum. We thought they were so thick. Without a doubt the best ever gotcha Noel ever did.

I loved the old daily radio 1 hand overs between Noel and DLT everyday !!!

Miss the old DJS. Ain't the same now...loved the radio on in summer hols radio 1, Blackburn, D LT, Noel Edmonds and David Hamilton with his quite cultured smooth voice

I really miss Noels House Party

Noal Edmond's best gotcha ever! DLT was well intrueley got Lee trevis !Just say Lee Travis's was the star of that ar of night.he never had a clue he never expected Noal Edmond's to walk in and say Lee trevis gotcha! I still laugh my socks off even today when ever I see this clip! Saturday nights are not the same with out shows like this anymore!

There has been some amazing Gotchas but there is no doubt this one is the best. Could never be beaten.

Gotcha Oscars were usually the best part of show…but I could never understand why they never got Jeremy Beadle. That would have been ideal!

you can't compare the old days to now on Radio. Radio One is totally different, all about the young of today and what they listen to. I listened to Radio One as a teenager, and thought it was great, but today's youth might think it was something your Gran would like. However, Tony Blackburn is still as popular as he ever was, which is rare. He has a unique talent which does not age. That is very very unusual now. There was more individuality then, and maybe less ageism. The older presenters were more respected, and now they would be moved aside or go to other radio stations once they are considered no longer young enough to keep up. Music was fantastic then too also more individual, less manufactured. Those were the days.

I remember listening to the programme on that Saturday morning and thinking what a bunch of thiko's and of course the inevitable line THIS MAN DIES ON THE AIIIR!!!!! i really thought something had seriously happened live on air until the whole thing came out after DLT had played a record and sort off calmed down Classic Classic humour .

Over 30 yes later I'm still laughing..

The HAIRY CORNFLAKE poor DLT he got it well & truly by Noel. I found it absolutely HILARIOUS!!! 😅😂😁😁😂😁👏👏👏👍 PITTY the end was cut a bit too short. Would have liked to hear the last bit about DLT.

I used to watch this as a kid with grandma and I always remember this the best reaction to a gotcha ever

I listened to that live when I was a kid. We waited in the car to here the end as it was so funny. We we heard it was a setup, me and my dad pissed are pants

I heard this live. It was about half way through I started to get suspicious.

All you get nowadays is celebrity shite and talent shows Miss being young in the 90’s tv was great and it’s all we had no KZfaq and social media So many great programmes Turned 40 and really appreciate the good old days

Alot whent on but Travis i feel he was made a scapegoat, he was no saville that's for sure.

Thanks for posting this, made me laugh all these years later as much as it did the first time it was aired. It's going in my faves

Before the show started DLT caame on and said Noel thinks he's just going to do a normal show but there will be tonnes of surprises along the way. DLT colluded with the production team and took over the whole show. Noel didn't have a clue what was happening and it was brilliant.

DLT - he's the man !!

I remember this , stopping for a cuppa while decorating, and it went on and on and on.. I remember thinking no one , just no one could be as thick as these two teams. Absolutely brilliant. 😊

Saturday morning Darts on the Radio - What a fantastic memory.

Brilliant T.V & Radio. I've met Noel & found him to be just the business!!! Very approachable & a true professional!!!

I listened to this live and was thinking how thick are these people.😅

Wish they were still on radio both legends

RADIO 1 WAS THE STATION TO TUNE IN2.NOW ITS NOT WORTH 10 MINS OF YOUR TIME.LOVED NOELS HOUSE PARTY ASWELL,GOOD TO WATCH BE4 A NIGHT ON THE TILES

"To be fair to Dave Lee Travis..." oh...

wow at 6:50 Noel says say hello to Sharon at the panto in Crawley. The event, and the place what Travis was in crown court for.

Brilliant upload, thanks

Very Funny, even after so long the quality lives on.

I used to listen sat morning at work working as an apprentice welder at stockrail services west York's,crumbs they were the days happy memories

Absolutely Brilliant n loved all those DJs of that time.

an absolute classic!!!

Apparently, Dave Lee Travis hasn't spoken to Noel since this gotcha, 20 YEARS AGO!!! LMFAO

I loved these guys when they all got together there was mayhem and so very very funny.

a true classic one of the best gotas. It was just has funny hearing live when it went out on radio 1

Working on a building site on the Saturday this was aired. Loved daves show on Saturday morning great days . Much better than the lefty children presenting today. Bring back mark and lard

DLT and anyone else accused of a crime is innocent until proven guilty! Great clip here - very amusing!

Funniest thing ever, I just loved this.

Geoff McGiven is a wholly underrated character actor.

Bless the both of them. 😂😂😂😂

9 million listeners on radio 1 on a weekend!

Love the old radio stuff.

The Gotcha's were best part of House Party, he got Derek Jameson 3 times.

darts on the radio lol i remember it well the old sunday lunchtime hairy cornflake radio spot on radio 1 right before fluff freeman with pick of the pops "all right, not alf"

Imagine him being on radio 1 still...

Quack quack opps! Billy Babu The story teller

I remember that show i was on the snake pass in my truck . Strange i remember that fact .

Still the best gotcha ever. Wonderful.

Fantastic times good ole DLT

Yeah, DLT. Good pro, knew his rock music, cruelly victimised by the press. Sad how he was hung out to dry.

you are absolutely right. if there is any way that could get online ... BBC should put all the gotchas online!

Wow - DLT playing the Levellers at 8.45! Cool! Oh yes - and a classic Gotcha! Give Edmonds his due - he's churned out some classic telly!

I was like number 1000, I've never seen it then from 999 to 1k before. Well that's all the excitement I need for the day

I bet he thinks when his court case is over, Noel is going to open the prison van up and hand him a gotcha oscar and say it was all a stitch up...

I checked - It's from that ALbum but the song is called The Game. At least I found it.

Thanks for sharing this :)

Radio 1 still very listenable then prior to Matthew Bannister making it an utter racket.

The Hairy Cornflake, a proper DJ 🍻

They dont make TV like this any more :(

Good old hairy cornflake

On what form of transport would you find a dead man's handle? A Hearse! So Funny!

I don't care what people say DLT never did anything it was all about the music and the people around the music I have met this man he is compassionate who cares what people think never in this world would he do what was said the women that made these complaints need to be looked at themselves has a victim of sexual abuse myself I understand but they were only after the money

The good ole days....miss em.

"Say allo to Sharon, Dave, say allo to Sharon!" LOL.

I miss old TV

"Bumble" - gets me every time 🤣😂
