I hadn't realised that Craig Charles was involved with the British edition of Takeshi's Castle. It's a 1980's Japanese show that was created by Beat Takeshi. You might remember it when a version aired on US cable for a while 20+ years ago. The British version had Craig Charles as the narrator. It eliminates the sketches that Takeshi and crew did and condenses the action to about 23 minutes an episode. Here's the first episode of the first UK series. There's a whole bunch more to watch if you like it. Here's the Monster Special. It's pretty dumb, Craig has no idea who all the monsters really are. I laughed. I find I can't watch too many of them but one once in a while isn't too bad.
