I'm always interested in what happens after a gunging, whether it's one of our lovely sites on here, or back in the day on TV. I'm a huge wet/messy hair fan and love scenes where models appear again, fresh from the shower and have wet/damp hair from their last gunging, before going through all the fun again.
I also remember watching a few gungings on Live and Kicking, in particular, where the presenters would gunge someone and say "person x will be joining us later to talk about thing x", but I never saw those bits....
Does anyone remember any of those scenes or know any great sites, like anglefan, or the lates from team18 with rafa, where a gunge victim appears on set/screen again?
On every episode of our shows Mucked Up and Drop It, the guys always have a shower before they play the final round (and get gunged all over again!). You can often tell how vain a particular model is by how well they've restyled their hair for the final round.
I remember Phillip Schofield talking about his (many) gungings on Noels' House Party. Apparently they got cleaned in a bath as the BBC recycled the gunge, hence why some weeks it was thick and others thin.
I remember reading an interview with a Blue Peter presenter who'd appeared on ITV's "On Safari", and said that in between the "swamp" and "pool" rounds, the contestants were just taken out the back of the studio and hosed down with cold water to get the mud off their boilersuits, then brought back in to go straight into the second game in their wet outfits.
I always thought about this and would love to know what happens - particularly with the NHP style gunging. How close was the shower and was it a squelchy walk? Did they have to stand up and get scraped down to get rid of excess gunge before stepping out? Were the gunge victims given alternative clothes to wear?
Reminds me of one of my fave gunge pics of Lee Ryan in a dressing gown on the way to the shower still all slimy.

I remember the myleene gunging on L&K they carted her off the set in what looked like a bathtub on wheels.

Recycled gunge? Now there's a thought lol. When was Philip talking about his gungings?
Fair play to the beeb for warming it up. The first time I was sploshed, after the anticipation and excitement of having a bucket of custard tipped over me, I actually started to shiver as it was freezing. We learned to add warm water!
I'm surprised recycling the gunge was even remotely feasible without adding a preservative as it starts to decompose quite quickly and smells of rotten eggs after only a few days.

Having been at the BBC Television Centre back in 2000 to appear on The Weakest Link I can tell you that it is not a long walk from the studios to the dressing rooms so the story from Schofield about getting rinsed in a bath is probably true. They then just had to nip along the corridor to the dressing rooms. Not sure about recycling the gunge though - any kind of germs could have been passed through to the next unfortunate "victim". I do know that the BBC used vast quantities of Natrasol for their shows though, I remember reading a report on how one vat used on kids show 'Run The Risk' burst and made a hell of a mess of the studio floor.
Love you, too
