Rincewind Posted 7 October 2005 Posted 7 October 2005 Britains Toughest Pubs. Anyone see this programe on Sky One? The Bowlturners on Belgrave Gate Leicester was featured. I wouldn't have thought it tough though. A load of doormen meet up every Sunday and they wear medalion shotguns around their necks. One place in Essex (Pitsey?) has had 26 landlords in 24 years. One came one day and the next he climbed through a window and legged it. There was a pub in Nottingham and one in Birmingham (The Sportsman) One funny bit was a bloke was crossing a railway line and fell over. A train sent to deal with the accident ran over his leg and he had to have it off. Well he laughed and the whole pub laughed at the story. You saw him take his false leg off and then the barman filled it with beer. Another bloke took his glass eye out and dropped it into his beer. One pub had a boxing ring upstairs for any fights that started. The programme was just after The Match. A celebrity XI is going to take on a All Star XI On Sunday. You see them training all week and Graham Taylor is the manager. Time bed thats enough chit chat.
