  • Fifteen To One

    Way too fast-paced compared with the artificial tension of most modern shows. Got through more questions in a minute than there are in the average episode of (*yawn*) Eggheads.

  • Win, Lose or Draw

    aka the greatest TV game show of all time.

    They brought it back about ten years ago minus Baker or Mills and on at a stupid hour. Didn't work.

  • Every Second Counts.

    Strike It Lucky.

    ...and just about any other show where it was about winning prizes. No one cares about prizes nowadays. It's all about the cold hard cash and the (above mentioned) artificial tension.

  • What was that one presented by Bob Monkhouse that used to be on around lunchtime?

    It was rubbish, other than the fact Bob Monkhouse presented it.

    Anyway, that one.

      • those contestant introductions are incredible

        obviously the answers to the questions are pre-determined but still manages to get 4 minutes out of it.
