Scenes after end Credits

[Amos Hames 2]

Many times I come across extra scenes after the end credits. Sometimes talking. Sometimes Visual. I forgot about these for many years and caught some just by chance. Let's name some.. the one this evening was when Barry was convinced his car had no engine but when he showed Glenda it had suddenly reappeared.

I think the water bed dripping through the ceiling was an add on.

To me it is Wesleys seemingly first flawless design fail at the end if Jaws.....

Goodnight Sweet Ferret where the bride punches Barry in the face.

I was in the audience for the laughter track of episode at Teddington Studios and I cannot recall that ending! Need to watch again.

John Cleese in Welcome to Earth.

My all time favourite has got to be when Billy fires the arrow in celebration/Robin Hood, and knocks the hat off from one of the Policemen.
You then see the hat, on the floor with an arrow through it.

I watched that too. Wesley had used the engine in the boy's boat they found. How about Billy shooting down Barry's RC airplane..

Dried Dates And Codfanglers where the little baaing lamb opens Seymour's door.

Well, it's a well known fact that the BCC would add voice overs or something at the end of each show. So Alan Bell came up with the extra scene. And these scenes became precious in their own right.

And about that little lamb? She was unable to take direction and finally after much effort, she approximately hit her mark and it was cut and print.

Seymour's waste disposer splattering food all over Edie's window.

So you could say that lamb fleeced them!

I had heard this as well. For example:
- To deter announcers from talking over the end music /credits by introducing the next show or whatever.
- Prevent broadcasters from trimming the episode a bit short to display announcements, adverts, etc.
- Broadcasters reducing the outro to a small Picture-in-Picture while announcers come on Fullscreen to talk about something else.

Rick won't probably have seen this, but the programmes made for ITV channels are contracted to have end credits scrolling in white on black background, just to that they *can* squash, crop, picture-in-picture and talk over the credits!

In terms of the end credits there are a lot of shows where perhaps what is more pertinent is using a great closing theme tune, which often viewers remember with a fondness and sing along with when the credits are running through . I won't bore you again with the closing Only Fools tune but sure , like my croaky self, many people have a go at singing along with it . Same goes with Auf Wiedersehen and Joe Fagin's catchy song, equally there is a collective OOOOH goes out when Whatever happened to the Likely Lads ends .

Why they can't ever go back to the time when the actual programme producers themselves did their own end credits is well beyond me. All this corporate stuff to get promotions and adverts in has it's place, but IMO it shouldn't be part of the end credits. They should be large, slow, easily readable and made by the programme producers themselves. Like this for example:
