  • my friend sent in a video once but was never played i thinkuse use some many of the same videos instead of new ones there always repeats, but its worth ago
  • Isn't it interesting how you can always spot the 'set-up' ones, no matter how natural the fakers try to make them look....

    That's why I and a lot of others stopped watching that particular television gem.
  • Much better with the mighty Harry Hill presenting it. He points out the setup ones blatantly, that's why it's worth watching again.
  • but they should not play or pay for the setup ones when there are people who have really funny videos and dont get it shown, harry hill is really funny.

    My girlfriend sent in some very funny ones of her cats. They were sent back saying we dont want to use them. From being a avid fan of YBF ( apart from during the Lisa Riley years, *spit*), they seem to still show clips that were shown during the Beadle years and a lot are from many years ago.

    I doubt they have much need for them considering they buy and sell the clips from other coutries too.
  • wil post if i hear anything apparantly we should recieve a letter 2 weeks before they show them ..........if they show them and as you can send clips online now it really wasnt any hassle

    I sent 2 clips to ybf prob about 8 years ago, they kept one of the clips and said id get the cash after it was actually screened on tv, you have to then sign the clip over to them and are not allowed to send it anywere else. It was over 2 years b4 it was broadcast and money was received. then another couple of years after that they contacted me and asked if it could be used on another show, i was given a further £50 and told there then would be no further payments no matter how many times it would be screened. As i was not expecting the second payment i was happy enough with this. I have since seen the clip on a few different shows. They do seem to remix many of the clips they have to make up new shows.

    Just for the interest content was footage of kittens.

    So to the OP go for it if you want to, you have nothing to lose but it is a long process if your clip is selected. Good Luck!

    The animals and babies clips are the best...at least they're not set up.

    Katie it might be more useful to edit your post title to reflect the content of the post - just in case people search for it in the future :)

    Thanks
