Delightful decorum of polite gaming, with personalities of the UK screen and media. Alan Coren was a favourite of mine as he always had his wry humour ready to deploy. The weekly, gentlemanly joust of Frank and Patrick with quizmaster Robert; in a less involved role than Brain of Britain compete.
@harleyhartley3168 What an idiotic comment. Every old TV show on RU-vid has some tedious Tory saying, "Oh, those Wokists would never allow that these days!" It's utter drivel. And at time of writing, your "anti-woke" heroes - the most cynical and corrupt chancers ever to hold office - have been in power for 14 years, egged on and defended by the majority of our non-dom, tax-dodging media barons. So instead of whinging on social media forums, maybe try working out why our economy has been trashed. CLUE: It wasn't the unions, or the gays, or the immigrants. It was your anti-woke grifters in government.
I always recall, Frank Muir, incandescent in rage as he failed to get Patrick Campbells definition of "auf", as a pregnant fairy. A brilliant programme.
Don't know why this appeared in my recommended list, but it did, and I'm glad it did. Marvellous quiz that I used to watch every week when telly was actually worth watching. Good to see Tom making an appearance. I wonder what he thought of it all? But OMG 1977... where did the time go?
Strange that Frank Muir didn't realise that Anglesey, Wales and the UK are not remotely close to being 14 degrees north of the equator. However, the claimed longitude was a match for the Menai Straits.
Is not the problem with Tom that there was entire generation out there that would take his pronouncements as gospel on the basis of that voice and his Saturday night influence?
