PASSWORD 1963-12-12 Dorothy Collins & Steve Lawrence 

she really is...maybe the best. And she was low maintenance in terms of behavior and keeping the proceedings on schedule.

Agree. But she did make a crack about Steve's wife Eydie Gorme which i don't think Steve liked. He was very protectively of her. I think she was a better player than Steve. She was told many times not to use her hands.

Yeah, it's a tough thing to see when, after skipping a word or two, they get the fifth word guessed with 15 or 20 seconds remaining on the clock.

This rule was changed for Password Plus that started airing in 1979, during the "Alphabetics" bonus round.

It was great later in years when they could go back if they had time left.

Ha ha. I remember Edie( spelling?) Gormet. Mostly from the Carol Burnett show and similar. They appeared together a couple times as well.

@@RepentfollowJesus Gorme.

I dont get Nottingham for Sheriff. Please explain.. But saw repeats of Gunsmoke as I was old enough to watch then. I knew Marshall Dillon well.. I was born in 63. But I dont get how some celebrities or contestants got on, unless they just got stage fright once actually playing. I close my eyes and try to play and many times its much harder than it appears. Especially on lightning rounds. Sorry your daughter didn't get picked.

I kept saying Deputy!!

@@RepentfollowJesus - Hello. Very famous place and story. Both the book and movie. Erroll Flynn played Robin Hood. Basil Rathbone played the "Sherriff of Nottingham" in the movie about 1939 or '40 maybe. It is about a good archer named "Sir Robin of Loxley" He supports King Richard who was out of the country at the time. He and his fellows live in Sherwood Forest. Some romance, treachery, greed, honor, great archery, some good sword play, horses, various characters. . Robin Hood and his Merry Men of Sherwood Forest (in England) about the time of Richard the Lion-hearted. Nottingham was the town/city. It is still there. I read the whole book with full color paintings of the characters probably in 5th grade. I'm several years older that you. That movie has been shown many times on Turner Classic Movies and probably on AMC channel. Your local library or thrift store/Goodwill/Salvation Army store might have the V.H.S. tape. The Sheriff of Nottingham was "The Bad Guy" along with the guy named Prine John who wanted to take over the King's job. They taxed people lots of money (They were modern U.S. Democrats 😉) Supposedly "Robin Hood" and his pals lived in the forest and stole money from the "rich" and gave it to the "poor" and helped King Richard return to power. {English Historians call it a big fat lie,,,, but - it is a good book and movie. Enjoy!}

maybe... but he's pretty cute

He seemed to be a true gentleman.

He was. Steve died on March 7, 2024.
