Get Mucky
Synopsis
Get Mucky was the gameshow element in ITV's Saturday morning travelling extravaganza Get Fresh.
Two teams of two kids played. Or rather one person played, the other one risked getting gunged if their teammate lost.
Whoever had the highest score after ninety seconds of playing a computer game (Starglider on an Atari ST, or shoot-em-up Xenon on an Amiga) won. Their teammate got to pull the cord releasing a bucket of gunge over their opponent's head. And that's it.
Key moments
As we remember, for some reason the end-of-level boss would drain away their points.
Catchphrases
"You're unlucky... 'cos you're going to get MUCKY!!"
Inventor
Xenon was created by The Bitmap Brothers.
