How any history of British game shows can completely ignore Double Your Money, Take Your Pick etc... (presumably because they were in nasty old black and white) is beyond me. But by the end it became clear, this is simply a very long promo for the forthcoming revival of Celebrity Squares. ITV, you should be ashamed of yourself.

Well there are three more episodes to come. And the first episode covered "Beat The Clock" which was B&W.

How any history of British game shows can completely ignore Double Your Money, Take Your Pick etc... The first episode mostly covered GAME shows (including some quasi Quiz-Game show overlaps). Those two above were QUIZ shows. The programme clearly said that next week's episode covers quiz shows, I'd expect them to be mentioned then or in a later installment. If yesterday's episode was to plug "Celebrity Squares" that would be strange as it was only covered the revival for about 1.5 mins of the 45 mins or so of the whole show and in context with modern revivals of other shows. There was much more footage of 3-2-1 and The Generation Game .. was ITV plugging those for some reason? |

Shame about the 4:3 ratio being shown in widescreen on the old footage though.

Will they include The Sky's the limit, Sale of the century, Name that tune, Gambit - we'll have to see -
What depresses me about some of the older shows is how many are missing
The sale of the century has a handfull surviving, with over 400 shows missing -
Did they do the Top of the pops method and just record over the last series with the new series
