History Series / GetYourOwnBack

* FreudianExcuse: Some of the excuses that the contestants have for getting their grown up on the show are sometimes absurd.

* ClipShow: The 1998 Christmas Special was mostly a clip show of the 1998 series, and previous moments such as the gungings of Josie D'Arby, Tim Vincent, Paul Hendy, Peter Simon, Kirsten O Brien and Music/MrBlobby .

Get Your Own Back was a children's TV Show that was primarily focused on children getting revenge on their grownups (generally parents, but grandparents, teachers and other relations and acquittances also appeared over the years) who have humiliated them in the past, with two children competing against each other (hindered by their adult) for the right to see their adult CoveredInGunge. The show ran from 1991 to 2004, and was hosted by Dave Benson Phillips with Lisa Brockwell co hosting from 2001 - 2003.

* EarlyInstallmentWeirdness: The 1991 Series had 3 teams instead of 2, and the set was themed after a dungeon rather than the fairground-esque set used in later series.

** The twist in the final round went through several incarnations; the earliest one involved the adult having to answer 5 questions,[[note]]which had obvious answers which began with the same letter, but the adult's answer could not begin with that letter - for example, in one episode the forbidden letter was "G" and the questions included "What kind of transport is used in Venice?" and "What are gold chains made out of?"[[/note]] and if they got all 5 questions right the child would get gunged as well. Later, there were three additional gungeings before the big one which the adult could also avoid by answering questions. The best-recognised version is the one where the adult getting the questions wrong would lead to the chair they were sitting in being cranked upwards, meaning when they finally got dunked it would happen from a greater height.
