    Any favourites?

    I liked Blankety Blank (Les Dawson was the best host I think).

    And 3-2-1 was good!

    semi-distant relatives of mine were on Ask the Family (I know, that’s a quiz show but still).
    Won it a couple of times IIRC.

    ^ secret shame: I was on AtF. Spent my appearance fee on a skateboard.

    I used to love the Generation Game.

    Bullseye was great! Look what you could have won, etc, etc 🙂

    Game shows of old

    Define ‘old’.

    I remember ‘Double Your Money’ with Hughie Green & the 1st episodes of ‘Take Your Pick’ with Micheal Miles!

    I’m thinking 80s – but hey, anything last century!

    Fun house, a whole lot of fun,
    prizes to be won.

    It’s the real crazy show where anything goes.

    Fun house, it’s a quiz,
    it’s a race, a real wacky place,

    Use your body and your brain
    if you wanna play the game!

    “here’s a jet ski” ,just what you’ve always wanted .

    I remember an episode of 3-2-1 where the contestants won a Conservatory then announced ‘We live in a 3rd floor flat’

    The Adventure Game. That was some pretty weird shit, especially that Vortex thing.

    Not quite the same thing but a game show for kids in the early 80s.

    Looking back Bullseye seems to be the template for reality TV, build them up, challenge then and then parade what the didn’t win in front of them!!

    Does Shooting Stars count?

    I liked Blankety Blank (Les Dawson was the best host I think)

    Les Dawson was excellent.
