Default Now Get Out Of That
Does anyone remember 'Now Get Out Of That'? I'd say it was late 70's/early 80's, and featured teams made up of members of the public who were set challenges of the 'here's some planks of wood, rope and old oil drums, now get your team across this river' type. I think the presenter was Bernard Falk.

Bernard Falk, I think, basically drank himself to death.
He was trained in the Glasgow journalism industry, and I've read several books by former colleague that imply he was a bit of an arsehole.

Bernard Falk always struck me as being a tad off the wall when he used to do his reports on Nationwide.
