Memories of watching Eurotrash in the 90s

Could you get Channel 5 south of the border? It was a smutty Channel 4 and both were banned at my granny's house.

Playboy 10 min teaser every midnight on sky. When I stayed in my friends house we used to sneak in to watch it. One night we didn't realise his dad was recording something though and we flicked it on, watched and reverted back to the original channel. The next day he says to us "I recorded the assassin last night, I know you're not old enough but you can watch it with us if you want"

We ran to the sitting room and say on the couch beside his mum and dad and sister. Around 25 mins into the movie the channel started to change and his dad say "ah Jesus, who was messing with the telly"... Que 10 mins of utter silence as the playboy 10 min teaser starts.

Nobody changed the channel, and nobody spoke, we just sat there sweating and waiting for it to end. When it did, his mother just said "we'll that was interesting" and his sister broke her heart laughing at us.

laughing at some of these memories.. yes Channel 5 was good on a Friday night too .. - always showed movies starring the buxom Shannon Tweed

I remember watching eurtorash too & i turned the volume right down in my room so no one knew.. only to hear faintly from the living room that my Dad was watching it... " durty auld bugger" i thought hahaha

I also remember the Red light zone weekends on channel 4 & the many foreign films.. which i would set the timer on my VCR in my room to record as they were usually on at 3 or 4 AM.. get home from school then the next day and watch it on fast forward to look for the elusive bit of boob or even better bush

But talking about VCRs .. they didnt half make some noise.. when you were watching something ilicit in your room late at night they seemed to make a noise like a jet engine during take off.. especially during rewind!!

Before eurotrash there was the word. Guaranteed a bit of tit.

A Primal Nut · 15-10-2012 06:12PM

Haha it's funny to hear how many people were in the same boat as teenagers pre-internet.

I remember RTE Airtel had reviews of all films on all the terrestrial channels (including BBC, UTV and Channel 4). I used to read the reviews and look out for the word erotic.

"Erotic Drama" or "Erotic Thriller" was enough for me to tune in. The films themselves were usually ****e, though, but there was just about enough nudity to make it worthwhile.

But yeah, Eurotrash was the only guaranteed nudity I remember. Me and my friends considered it porn.

Anyone remember the adult zone on ITV teletext?:pac:

Never watched Eurotrash, German porn on the Astra satellite, our local pub used to show it after the barman's mother went to bed.

Martyn1989 · 15-10-2012 06:38PM

Lol Eurotrash was great, except when they had naked aul lads on it, which was extremely common.

Anyone see the one with the aul one who had the longest pubes in the world, it was simply disgusting.

I remember a mate brought a selection of page 3 pics in to show around, he got really pissed off when about half of them were pocketed and no one would own up.

McChubbin · 15-10-2012 06:54PM

Eurotrash was the balls. I used to sneak into the living room aged 10 toi watch it out of sheer fascination. First time I ever saw a cock was when they had the guy with the world's largest on. Needless to say, it left me with some dubious expectations in my adult life...

Celly Smunt · 15-10-2012 07:11PM

trying to crack one in five seconds hoping it wouldn't switch back to the french fella if there was a girl with no knickers on

Ares · 15-10-2012 07:17PM

I remember TG4 always had a foreign film on Friday night after the Western. Was the best thing ever when I was 10-14.

I watched the Western one night with my Dad and we were both chatting away anyway after the film finished, too lazy to change the channel and this Chinese film comes on with an absolute load of sex, 5 minute long stuff here with moaning and boobs flapping everywhere. It was bliss.

I looked over to my dad not sure as to how this awkward situation was going to resolve itself as I was only turned 11 at this stage.

He smiled, got up off his chair, ruffled my hair and said, 'ah if only we had this when I was your age.'

He wished me good night, went to bed and told me to take it handy and not stay up too late because we'd jobs to do in the morning.

And so my first ever **** was had watching a Chinese film on TG4 with the subtle approval of my father.

The guy with the biggest dick in the world.
He wore tight cycling shorts, and his dick wrapped all the way around his hips.

Yes, it was called After Hours

It was shortlived though - it was first broadcast in January 1993 (after ITV switched Teletext operators) but lasted only a month or two.

Capt'n Midnight · 15-10-2012 08:26PM

TV3 show it

ollaetta · 15-10-2012 08:39PM

Crazy crazy programme. Naked deformed house cleaners, Lolo's bazookas, beige Belgian Eddie Wally and Ralf the Magician who used his flute covered in latex as his wand. :eek:

Ah the mammaries memories, back when C4 actually had interesting (if somewhat bizarre) programmes. Now it's all property and reality tv shíte.

I recall having a tv with no remote control, had to sit within arms reach in case anyone came in!

Sergeant · 15-10-2012 10:07PM

There was a lad in our secondary school class who recorded about 3 hours of the Playboy and Adult Channel teaser previews. The money-thirsty fúcker used to rent it out. Payment could be in cash, with discounts offered for payment in cigarettes or alcohol.

"It's deadly, you can see Pamela Anderson's gee in it".

pablomakaveli · 15-10-2012 10:23PM

Used to watch eurotrash a bit but it was pretty ****e to be fair. Too many naked old lads.

Anyone remember that channel Bravo. They used to ave good stuff in the evenings. They used to have a softcore film after 12 on saturday nights. I remember my favourite one was called 13 erotic ghosts because there was a few seconds in it where they showed some vag.

All this makes me really grateful for internet porn. There are people alive today who will never know how hard it once was to find something to fap to.

Eve_Dublin · 15-10-2012 10:33PM

Twiddling before my dad caught me.

Same here. Awfully tough trying to change button, or even twist the button to tune to next channel. Would have given anything for a remote back then!
My sense of hearing and reactions was super tuned back then

I'll see your Bravo and raise you a Men & Motors, although by that stage internet speed had slowly creeped up to allow me a full 1.4Mb floppy (huh-huh!) disc of filthy images.

There was also another Motors channel on Sky which had full-on full frontal close-up solo porn late at night, proper vag shots. Anyone remember it? Didn't last long though

holystungun9 · 15-10-2012 10:41PM

I remember that it made my willy stand up.

Cienciano · 15-10-2012 10:53PM

Worst thing about eurotrash was starting a "speed ****" when a decent clip came on about womens naked volleyball or something, but the clip wasn't on long enough so you ended up jizzing your load as a clip came on about german that played the piano with his schlong

We didnt have Men and Motors back then because we had one of those old multichannel boxes. Bravo would only come on after 12:30. Eurosport would be on til 12:30 and then it just flicked over to Bravo.

ibarelycare · 16-10-2012 02:07PM

Our Sky box was in the living room but the TV in the kitchen had a channel programmed in that could watch whatever the person using Sky was watching. I was caught watching Eurotrash so many times, as well as Sexcetera and those various programmes on Bravo. I'd hear a shout from the kitchen "TURN THAT OFF" and I'd sit there morto for the rest of the night

My main memory of Eurotrash is a programme with a group of hippies who lived in a commune and believed that eating their own poo gave them better orgasms :eek:

Father Damo · 16-10-2012 09:48PM

Ten minute freeview
Eurotrash
French Art on TG4 :pac:

Did anyone else watch this rubbish?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Passion_Cove

Used to be on Living TV late night when I was about 14 or 15. Far as I remember it was real shagging (not shown in detail obviously), but with a sort of soap opera type set up/ plot and romantic type music while she was getting pummeled.

I remember once or twice the likes of the Adult Channel and Playboy forgot to switch on their encryption after the freeview. :cool:

ButtersSuki · 16-10-2012 10:52PM

And some proper sauciness from Adriana Karembeau (nee Sklernikova - forgive me on either spelling!) or super skank Victoria Silvestedt in Antoine's "Sit on My Knee" (or was it "Sit on me"?) segment?
