TFI Friday was an entertainment show broadcast on Channel 4 in the United Kingdom from 1996 to 2000. The show was produced by Ginger Productions, written by Danny Baker and hosted by Chris Evans, for the first 5 series. The final series was hosted by a number of guest presenters. It was broadcast on Fridays at 6pm from 9 February 1996 to 22 December 2000, with a repeat later that night. The title officially stood for "Thank Four It's Friday", but was widely understood to mean "Thank Fuck It's Friday" and was a reference to the popular phrase "Thank God it's Friday". The show's theme tune was Ron Grainer's theme from Man in a Suitcase, in keeping with Evans's frequent use of 1960s television themes in his work.

A Question of Sport court jester Ally McCoist is back on the bench again as he passes judgement on some of the world's funniest ever sporting bloopers in this hilarious video. There are 50 minutes of bloopers including horse racing from America, boxing from the Czech Republic, motor racing from Australia and football from Belgium. And there are plenty of guilty verdicts delivered for the motor cyclist who makes a toilet stop in the middle of a race, the motor racing driver who pushes the car over the line and the football referee who punches one of the players.
We take a look back at the summer of 1996 when the European Championships came to England and football came home.
Another long season ends with Manchester United having fought for the very highest honours. With the two domestic cups out of the way, they could concentrate on the Premiership and the Champions' League. The Champions' League campaign faltered at the semi-final stage despite some fine performances, but Premiership form went from strength to strength while their nearest rivals began to get the jitters. Alex Ferguson saw the golden apple of a fourth title in five years as within his grasp, and his team clinched the prize with games to spare.
