Dick and Dom in da Bungalow was an Award winning CBBC children's television series presented by Richard McCourt ("Dick") and Dominic Wood ("Dom"). In the final series, Series 5, five children and one celebrity guest (known as Bungalow Heads) came to "stay the weekend" in their "bungalow". Throughout the two shows (on Saturday, 9am-11am and Sunday, 9am to 10am), the Bungalow Heads attempted to win bungalow points, by playing various oddly-named and weirdly themed games, which converted to prizes at the end of the episode. The show also featured the talents of the other cast members: Lee Barnett, Dave Chapman, Ian Kirkby and Melvin Odoom as random other characters as required. The show was produced by Steve Ryde and directed by Simon Hepworth. The last episode was aired on Saturday 11 March 2006. Image File history File links Bungalow_TitleName. ...

The new series saw many new characters being introduced, some of which became regulars to the show. At the start of the series they tried a number of ways of bringing in the prizes before using the Prize Idiot. A number of other short-term characters, used mainly for just one game were played by both Dick and Dom. The basement set was used as an alternative place for some of the games, as well as containing a celebrity 'locked up' in the cage.
Series 4 Series 4, broadcast 2004/2005, retained the same format as the previous series. Notable additions to this series was the addition of an attic to the bungalow, which was mainly used for the 'Drop Your Guts' game (see games section). During this series the Sunday edition became pre-recorded, where previously it was broadcast live. Prior to Sunday's editions being recorded one notable event was a fire alarm which went off during a cartoon, resulting in an extra cartoon having to be played out by CBBC before they could return to the bungalow to finish the show.

Other significant changes to this series saw the bungalow getting a garden, which replaced the basement set. Additionally, Series 5 saw the replacement of the sixth child Bungalow Head with an adult replacement. On Saturday the final Bungalow Head was a celebrity, and on Sunday it tended to be someone who the other Bungalow Heads knew (eg. relative, teacher, etc).
Group pic from the final episode From the beginning of 2006, the Saturday show was moved to BBC Two while the BBC experimented with their Saturday morning lineup. BBC Two shows were moved to BBC One in return. The last episode was broadcast on BBC Two on Saturday 11 March, 2006. From the end of the previous Sunday and throughout the final episode they built up to the big finale, which involved all the cast members singing a song and getting covered in "creamy muck muck". Then, for the first time ever, viewers were shown the outside of the bungalow, which subsequently collapsed under creamy muck muck. A final post-credits scene shows the "Big BBC Boss" (Alan Yentob) waking up in bed and saying to the camera, "Oh, what a terrible dream!" Dick and Dom then sit up either side of him and end the show with a theatrical cackle. Image File history File links DD_EndGroup. ...

Highlights shows of Dick and Dom were shown the next day and on the following weekend. The following day on Sunday 12th March, there was a special Behind Da Bungalow programme broadcast on the CBBC Channel between 9 & 10am which featured an interviewer asking questions to Dick & Dom, The Prize Idiot, The Next Door Neighbour's Cat, DC Harry Batt, Mr Choosey, Melvin Odoom and other past characters on the show. The following weekend on Saturday 17 & Sunday 18th March the team broadcast the highlights show of Da Bungalow which saw Dick & Dom when they were older, sitting in two separate chairs in a posh house while telling their grandchildren what they did every week on Da Bungalow when they were younger.
Show format For Series 5 the programme was adjusted slightly. Whereas in Series 1-4, the points total at the end of Saturday - with an extra prize for the winner on Saturday - was carried over to the Sunday show, and prizes were awarded at the end of that show, they now awarded 1st, 2nd and 3rd prizes on the basis of Saturday's scores only. The first and second prizes were usually desirable items such as a TV or games console, but the third prize was always a 'booby prize' like a hubcap, a cake made of carpet, a hairy cheese or bottled water from the River Hull. At the very end the Bungalow Head with the least points was gunged, sitting on the toilet - though for the last series this practice was largely dropped, possibly because the contestants were already covered in "creamy muck muck" from the finale. The River Hull is a river in the East Riding of Yorkshire in the north of England. ...

Points were earned through success in Bungalow games, although points could be awarded or taken away at any time by Dick or Dom. Although they threatened to do this, for example, when a particular child was being troublesome, this was mostly never carried out. Occasionally, at the end of the show, a phone call was taken from The Almighty Kid. The Almighty Kid's identity was unknown, but changed each time he/she called. The Almighty Kid could award or take away points from one Bungalow Head for no reason at all. The show's games were broken up by random features, and cartoons.
The picture frame Each week Dick and Dom had a famous celebrity's picture on a picture frame with a moving mouth. One week, for example, the picture in the frame was of Tony Blair. Usually the person in the frame said something silly, for example when Noel Edmonds was in the frame and started singing "I'm Roly, I'm Poly...", or Terry Wogan said 'Wiggity wiggity wah!'. For other people of the same name, see Tony Blair (disambiguation) Anthony Charles Lynton Blair (born May 6, 1953)[1] is the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, First Lord of the Treasury, Minister for the Civil Service, Leader of the Labour Party, and Member of Parliament for the constituency...

Season 5 saw the picture frame being used less than in previous seasons and in addition, there were attempts to implement numerous tricks with the picture frame, including firing gunge and pushing out small objects like bouquets of flowers. e.g. when Huw Edwards was in the picture frame he said "News just in, this just out" before the person operating the mouth hosed gunge out of his mouth. Huw Edwards (born August 1961) is a newsreader, or anchor, with the BBC in the United Kingdom. ...
Bungalow games In accordance with UK children's television tradition many games involved the participants being gunged. This was particularly true of the final game of every show, Creamy Muck Muck. Some of da bungalows games were Yum Yum Yack, Musical Splatues, Nae Body Move, Baby Race, Toddler Tug of War, Er Yum Yum Look up gunge in Wiktionary, the free dictionary. ...
Creamy Muck Muck Creamy Muck Muck was always played just before the end of every Saturday show. Throughout the series the precise theme varied. The games were sometimes presented by the other members of the crew, Dave, Ian and Melvin. If not, then they were featured somewhere in the background, often chucking "creamy muck muck" (custard) at whoever was currently answering a question. Bungalow Heads were also equipped with their own buckets of muck muck, which they could flick at each other. This article focuses on egg-thickened custards. ...
Towards the end the words "Go! Go! Go!" were shouted (Usually by Dick) and a gunge-fest began, accompanied by the song "Ace of Spades" by Motörhead. There followed a minute's frenetic creamy muck muck throwing, as a lead in to the end of the show. By the end of the process, it was extremely rare to see anything or anyone on the set not completely covered in "muck muck".Once Creamy Muck Muck was temporarily replaced with Custard Pies Alternate cover Christmas picture sleeve edition For the 1988 live single, see Ace of Spades (live) Ace of Spades is a song by the heavy metal band Motörhead. ...

During Series 1 to 4 there was no precise nature or specific theme to Creamy Muck Muck, except for its ending. It has seen simple pie throwing in earlier series, various sport based themes, a murder mystery, and many where they have pretended that they were not going to be throwing muck muck. For the end of Series 3 there was a surprise This Is Your Muck Muck a spoof of This Is Your Life, which involved many of Dick and Dom's family and friends, as well as featuring Pat Sharp. This Is Your Life was a television documentary series hosted by its producer, Ralph Edwards. ...
Pat Sharp (born October 25, 1961 and sometimes nicknamed Patman,[2]) is a British radio and television presenter and disc jockey, currently presenting The Big Drive Home on Q103 radio in Cambridge. ...
For Series 5 the theme was normally a parody of a traditional game show. In whatever format the game took, the current 1st, 2nd and 3rd placed Bungalow Heads - The Prize Winners - competed against the 4th, 5th and 6th placed Bungalow Heads - The Prize Losers. If the Prize Winners won, then they would keep their current positions, and win the three prizes on offer. If the Prize Losers won, then they became the new 1st, 2nd and 3rd, and take the prizes off the previous Prize Winners. Past spoofs have included Name That Tune, The Crystal Maze and Call My Bluff. In contemporary usage, a parody (or lampoon) is a work that imitates another work in order to ridicule, ironically comment on, or poke some affectionate fun at the work itself, the subject of the work, the author or fictional voice of the parody, or another subject. ...

Forfeit Auction The Forfeit Auction only ever featured on the Sunday editions of Dick and Dom in da Bungalow. Dick and Dom had "traditional" culinary objects to throw at the Bungalow Heads. Dick dressed up as 'Tomdickunharry', a Cockney geezer, and auctioned forfeits "for hard earned bungalow points, to stitch up your bungalow mates". His catchphrase was "Alright me darlin's?" He often also said "Bourbon Biscuit? Lovely Bourbon biscuit? Can I sell you a lovely Bourbon biscuit? No? Well wrap up warm!" Image File history File links TomDicknHarry. ...

Usually, these forfeits included a Bungalow Head being covered in different foods, known as 'the usual', including Creamy Muck-Muck and 'Dirty Norris' (originally a Marmite-like substance, later replaced by chocolate custard), chopped tomatoes and mushy peas.

The forfeits were of two types: The first that was auctioned was usually a task for a Bungalow Head that lasted the whole show, for example 'The Clockwork Kid', or 'The Caveman Kid'. The second involved a Bungalow Head dressing up and being covered in the items explained above. For example, in one instance where a Bungalow Head was transported back to Victorian London, he had to ask for more from characters like "Jack The Let One Ripper", "Florence Nightingale", "Victorian Barry Manilow" and "Queen Victoria" (who made him king). The Victorian era of the United Kingdom marked the height of the British Industrial Revolution and the apex of the British Empire. ...

For the fifth series, due to the reduction in broadcast time, the forfeit auction was changed. Only one auction remained, which unsurprisingly was the messy one. Also 'blind bidding' was introduced where the Bungalow Heads would write their bids down, this was done to help save time. At the end of the final Sunday episode (5 March 2006), Tomdickunharry revealed himself to have been Dick all along on-screen.
Baby Race The Baby Race started in series 4 and continued through to series 5. In the game, six babies and their parents were brought in to the studio. Each parent sat at one end of a mat and the first baby to get from one parent to the other was the winner. Usually the parent on the far side held an object or toy that the baby liked, or found interesting. The race was treated much like a horse race (to get points the Bungalow Heads had to bet on which baby they thought would win) up to and including the humorous commentary where other 'race tracks' are referred to as if baby racing was a popular sport. In one episode in the fifth series a baby stopped crawling and took their first steps live on TV. "It was a touching moment," said Dick and Dom afterwards.

Bungalow (regular) features Bungalow Features normally took place outside the Bungalow, and were shown in short film segments during the show. They were mostly for entertainment purposes and had no bearing on the points totals of the Bungalow Heads.
Bogies The most infamous part of Dick and Dom in da Bungalow was a game called Bogies. In this game Dick and Dom situated themselves in a quiet public place such as a museum or restaurant and took turns to shout "bogies" at gradually increasing volumes, until one of them didn't shout as loud as the other (judged by the Bogeyometer, or Snotometer, which appears on screen to rank the bogey), or quit due to embarrassment. Variants of this game, such as Pro-Celebrity Bogies - involving a challenge from a minor celebrity to Dick or Dom - were seen in Series 5. Series 4 also included Premier League Bogies, which involved playing the game in extremely intense circumstances, such as a during a performance of a play in a theatre, and during a session of yoga. Euro Bogies saw the game being played in prominent places throughout continental Europe, often resulting in Dick and Dom being ejected from the premises involved. The term used for "bogies" in French was "crotte de nez" (literally "nose droppings"), and in Italian "moccio". Booger may refer to: Look up booger in Wiktionary, the free dictionary. ...

Diddy Dick and Diddy Dom
When Dick and Dom opened the cupboard during the final episode. Inside the Bungalow was a large purple cupboard, and once or twice during each show, away from the attention of Dick, Dom and the Bungalow Heads, the cupboard doors would open to show the adventures of Diddy Dick and Dom. These were short sketches, no more than a minute in length, with Dick and Dom donning black clothes and attaching a small puppet's body around their necks. Both Diddy Dick and Diddy Dom spoke with very squeaky voices, edited in post production. Image File history File links DD-and-Diddies. ...

The sketches involving Diddy Dick and Diddy Dom tended to be either slapstick humour, puns or, more often than not, toilet humour. Eamonn Holmes was a guest inside the cupboard on two occasions, both times appearing as a head inside Diddy Dick and Dom's TV. According to the final episode, Diddy Dick and Dom left the cupboard to go to Hollywood. Also in the final episode Dick and Dom venture to look inside the cupboard to find the "mice" that have been there ever since the show began. Instead, they find Diddy Dick and Diddy Dom.

Eeny Meeny Macka Racka Rari Dominacka Shickapoppa Dickywhopper Rom Pom Stick This oddly named game took place in the streets of a random town. It involved Dick and Dom placing stickers of their own faces of increasing size on the backs, or other places, of unsuspecting members of the public. The game was over when a member of the public discovered that they had been a victim, and the loser was the one who placed that sticker. Classic strategies of ensuring a successful "lay" (sticker placement) involved asking members of the public for the time, and as they turned giving them a tap on the small of their back, thus delivering the sticker. Hoods of coats were also a common target. A label is any kind of tag attached with adhesive to something so as to identify the object or its contents. ...

As the name implied, the character often came out with strings of logical errors and tautologies. Another was Raymond Duck / Raymond Farmer / Raymond Newsreader. This character often provided links between cartoons that had been split in two. Raymond Farmer, played by Ian Kirkby, was also involved in several games in earlier series. Some other characters included: - Mr Choosy, a character with a balloon for a head. His routine was to come in, run around to his theme song and burst his head with a pin. Different substances would come out, such as glitter or "muck muck" (usually played by Melvin Odoom).
- DC Harry Batt (sometimes DI or DCI Harry Batt), a policeman (played by Ian Kirkby).
- Melvin Odoom, a breakdancer and a regular extra.

On 17 January 2005 the programme was debated in parliament when Peter Luff (Conservative MP for Mid Worcestershire) attacked it for its "lavatorial" content.[2] Referring to the show's web site, he invited the Culture Secretary to "join me in playing How Low Can You Bungalow, a test to see your response to grossly embarrassing personal situations, largely of a lavatorial nature; Pants Dancers in the Hall of Fame, photos of children with underwear on their heads; Make Dick Sick, a game which I think speaks for itself; and finally Bunged Up, in which you play a character in a sewage system avoiding turtles' poos coming from various lavatories".

The lack of celebrity was symbolised in earlier series by the presence of a minor, and often somewhat cult, celebrity, locked up in a cage in the dungeon of the Bungalow. In later series, the celebrity would sit in the attic. In both cases they would say nothing and often do nothing. Some people who have been in the cage or the attic include: Vince Earl, Sarah Greene, John Kettley, Hugo Myatt (as Treguard from Knightmare [1]), Su Pollard, Bodger and Badger and Peter Simon. Vince Earl (Born 11 June 1944 in Birkenhead) is a Liverpudlian singer, comedian and actor most famous for his portrayal of the character Ron Dixon in the soap Brookside. ...

For the final series, however, this rule was changed, and five Bungalow Heads were joined by a Celebrity Bungalow Head. The first celebrity to enter the Bungalow was Rachel Stevens. It seems, however, that she did not know what she was letting herself in for; she later stormed out when it was time for the finale of the show, Creamy Muck Muck: Muckversity Challenge. Melvin Odoom had to take her place in the sketch, given that she obviously did not want to be covered in creamy muck muck. Reports suggest that Dick & Dom have banned Rachel Stevens from any live broadcast they do in the future.
