Does anyone recall a piss-poor quiz show from about 25 years ago where the compere (eminently forgettable) used to try to add to the tension in the same way Chris Tarrant later used to tell people they'd won something like 1/4 of a £million, when he'd almost whisper the words "You've just won five pounds" but bewilderingly he'd often shout when the stakes were raised in such an excitable tone "YOU'VE JUST GOT YOURSELF TEN POUNDS!" - As if they'd won a holiday to The Bahamas! Laugh

I only know a couple of people who have a slight recollection of that shítty show but none of us can remember the name and I wouldn't have a clue where to start spending a lot of time checking it out - someone on here is sure to remember it as well and hopefully they'll recall its title.

PS - I have a feeling it might've been one of those daily shows at around 5pm on ITV but I'm far from certain.

I'm surprised nobody so far on here has any recollection of this...any advice about how I could find it online?

Thanks Ken...not sure I'll remember the title even if it's on the list - I'll probably have to look on youtube for all the ones I don't recognise Plain

I remember seeing a clip recently from the Golden Shot when Charlie Williams said "Well done, youve won a fiver", but that was nearer
40 years ago.

MMM - it's definitely not that show...I reckon the series probably only ran for one season so that was likely to be for just one month.

Id forgotten how embarrassingly amateurish The Golden Shot was with Charlie Williams as the host.

Thanks Roy - I checked that out on youtube as it sounded familiar and although a decent suggestion it's not the one Sad
