Finest TV for those on the sick skiving from school in the mornings.

By the same token



Although I think that is one I watched a while back and it features a very unpleasant exchange between Bennett and Kenny Lynch. Along the lines that he would rather be fat (or bald) than black, from memory.

Treasure Hunt for me - although probably health & safety has moved on far too much now for them to use the helicopter...

Let's hope Sarah Kennedy wasn't the Busman in question. Parked cars in danger, otherwise.

In Bingo lingo, clickety click. It's time to take your pick of the six.

Like him or loathe him, Bob was great at this stuff.



My second, Yes Paul, reference of the day.



And I used to love this outward bound style show.

This should be my specialised subject. Let's go for some dishonourable as well. Is UKIP boy going to share, or shaft?



Can I have a P please Bob? OK, here is a poor quiz show format.



Half decent comedy actors hamming it up in a lame attempt at emulating a board game with Mavis Riley guessing? Don't mind if I do.

Oh, great shout. Not really a game show but what the hell.

I didn't realise that the expression 'Route 1' for long ball football came from that show. On Quiz Ball 'Route 1' was the quickest way to goal, it was only one question but it would be hard. The expression stuck to describe a goalie punting the ball upfield.


My own contribution would have been 'The Golden Shot'. "Bernie, the bolt!"

Where is Bullseye on your list?

Couple of builders mates winning, and their prize - a caravan / a couple from Coventry winning a speed boat etc.

oh and here is what you could have won!

Bullseye has already been bought back with Dave Spikey and it flopped, probably needed someone with a bit more charisma and humour like Lenny Henry or John Barrowman.

Finally for dishonourables, Paul Tisdale impersonator and purveyor of mobile insurance worries about hares.



No royal chimp babies but Danny Baker still larks around with animals.



BRING ON THE WALL!



I won't inflict a naked Keith Chegwin on you. Or that Edmonds monstrosity from a couple of years ago, Cheap, Cheap, Cheap.

Can I have a P please?

There's been a revived version of Blockbusters hosted by Dara O'Briain on Comedy Central literally in the last few weeks, and I'm pretty sure Simon Mayo did a version as well.

The best quiz show bar none was Dale's Supermarket Sweep.
Shame he died.
Celebrity Squares was 'triffic too.
Double Your Money.
What about Runaround?
Name That Tune
All great stuff.
