I discovered it did start airing Saturday Mornings in 1977, where it was first aired in two parts with sports in between, then just as a single broadcast block and that ran all the way through off and on until 1980/81 or so.

I think the run you may be looking for began April 27th 1984 alongside a returning Number 73, and continued with some variation until the end of 1985. It seems to drop off start of 1986 when Get Fresh appears on Saturday mornings.

OBS is being a massive bellend, so no Twitch tonight. But what I can reveal is that my next multi-stream game will be Call of Cthulhu: Shadow of the Comet. It's a point and click adventure full of Hollywood stars.. none of whom ever consented to their likeness being used.
It should be a trip.

Glasgow, it’s been a trip. Saw many cool things on this little working break, but probably the most relevant to the audience I have here is this art down the road from where we were staying.

It’s Christmas Day 1984 as Ash & Cliff pay a visit to the Pink Windmill for your UCP Christmas Special. The fire has gone out, the pudding has exploded and Grotbags has the horn! shows.acast.com/underconsole...

I'd recommend watching it on Youtube. Bluesky's compression does a number on contrast and details.
I've attached an example comparison, but fully expect Bluesky's compression to do a number on contrast and details 😂

Starting at 6pm GMT: The continuing adventures of Frank West in Dead Rising 4. It's like Die Hard, but with zombies. Also an asshole photographer. Also an excessive amount of zombies in Elf costumes. Plus various psychotic dickheads.
Very Festive. So Christmas.

Beginning in 3hrs! Dead Rising 4: Part III. There’s a giant monster on the loose, Frank has got a mean wedgie from Cammy’s costume, and the mob physics in this game are still pretty impressive.

I’m sorry Plex (and wherever you scraped this from), but what sort of edgy 90s comedy club drama do you think this is?

Starting in an hour! Arguably the biggest initial scare will be the number of bags in the LEGO Ecto-1. But after that first hour the real fun begins… 💀
