Get Lucille Posted September 22, 2011 Share Posted September 22, 2011 I remember about a year or so ago a documentary came out on an octogenarian named Dave Kidney who wrestled up in Dundee(?). I was wondering if anyone had a decent link to it? I cannot seem to find it anywhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Retro Red Posted September 22, 2011 Share Posted September 22, 2011 I think everyone's after it. I didn't get to see it when it was broadcast so I really want to get a hold of a copy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Guvnor Posted September 22, 2011 Share Posted September 22, 2011 It's appalling. The worst load of shit you've ever seen (or not seen, in this case). I unfortunately watched it when it was on originally. It made me hate wrestling for about a week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Guvnor Posted September 22, 2011 Share Posted September 22, 2011 And before anyone asks, no I haven't fucking got it on my site, lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members martyngnr Posted September 22, 2011 Paid Members Share Posted September 22, 2011 It's the funniest thing I've ever seen. It's almost too good to be true - like the ultimate satire on British wrestling. From the Disabled superfan to the spotty pleather-clad "trainees" to the Ring announcer that buys something in every shop that he tries to poster. Not forgetting the 80 year-old man with angina who can barely move and can't do anything in the ring. It's just beautiful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get Lucille Posted September 22, 2011 Author Share Posted September 22, 2011 I remember catching it late one night, and being in fits of hysterics. From the kayfabe footage of them backstage, to watching them train (my favourite bit - the kid of questionable intelligence going to town on a punchbag) it seemed like the documentary makers managed to tick every box on the 'Obscure Hobby Clich Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkDallas Posted September 22, 2011 Share Posted September 22, 2011 There was a couple of trainees from Glasgow on the card, they asked them what they thought about Dave and his shows. Chris Renfrew then told the crew it was absolute shite and they should come to Glasgow to see proper wrestling. That bit strangley never made it to air Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarkDallas Posted September 22, 2011 Share Posted September 22, 2011 I wanted to book a skit ages ago where Dave was Red Lightnings dad in the Viking Bar in Maryhill, having a cheeky pint in a flashers coat and flat cap, someone says something crass, big dave whips off the coat and hat to reveal the singlet, then he and red take the entire bar to task. Had an e-mail address that I was told was a contact for him, never heard anything back funnily enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Cum Doctor Posted September 22, 2011 Share Posted September 22, 2011 He was at an NXT show when it was still called that in Erskine one time. Was shameful to see people walking up to him and treating him like a proper name. I normally hang around after shows, but I had to leave seeing that. I thought I was gonna boke.
