999 (1992-2003): The BBC's emergency call recreation show

We revisit the BBC's emergency call recreation show, fronted by newsreader Michael Buerke and find it something of a hilarious and terrifying watch.

There are gas explosions, creepy rescuers, suspicious caretakers, boat dramas and bee attacks in the clips we watch.

As well as that there are some rather upsetting animal revelations, workmen chat, and fancy dress opportunities.

Get it in your ears.
