Welcome back to part three of David Hassoff from the fall of the Berlin Wall.

Things were about to get very strange for the Hoff, as cracks appeared in the stability of the Soviet Union, David's personal life, and quite literally the Berlin Wall itself.

It's the fourth series of night Rider. Right. Batings are falling. It's quick, isn't it? Yeah. But the thing is, it is one idea. Well, that's interesting. We will come to that because that is what happens, basically. Did you watch Night Rider? I did, as a little kid, but not to the point where I would have known which series series I was watching because I was very little when it was on the telly. Yeah. But yeah, I did watch Night Rider. Was it good? It's hard to say. I remember really liking it, if I think very exciting, Night Rider and then later Airwolf, which was basically the same sort of thing. kind of period where there was where there was Night Rider, there was Airwolf, and there was A-Team.

Yes, I love the A-Team.

Ten years ago, a crack commando unit was sent to prison by a military court for a crime they didn't commit.

These men promptly escaped from maximum security stock aid to the Los Angeles underground.

Today, still wanted by the government, they survive as soldiers of fortune.

If you have a problem, if no one else can help, and if you can find them, maybe you can hire the A-team.

And none of them did very many episodes.

And the reason is they were all very one-note concepts.

Formulatic, yeah.

Formulate.

So it's like, great idea, but where do you take it?

So by the fourth series, the audiences are getting quite tired of Night Rider.

It was a bit like the end of friends with the 18. They all started dating each other. Is that? No, no, no, of course. Mr. Teague off with Hannibal and that caused a real problem because of Halamadmurk kind of fancied him, but they never mentioned it. like by series two Knight Rider, to give you an idea of how much they were struggling, by series two, there's a evil rival called Garth Knight. Garth Knight. As opposed to Michael Knight. Yeah. Do you want to guess who played him? Oh, it's not Tom Selleck, is it? It's not his arched rival Tom Selleck. It's David Husslehoff.

Oh, of course. It's an evil twin. He just sticks... He's Michael Knight's evil twin. With the little beard stuck on him or something like that. Hussarov's dad says, Michael Knight's evil twin is a better actor than Michael Knight. Bit of fun. It's a bit of fun.

We can all enjoy it. A bit of family fun.

Yeah.

You're out of your mind.

No, but you may be. It's a bit of fun. We can all enjoy it. A bit of family fun. Yeah.

You're out of your mind.
