Synopsis

Forsyth was poached from his Gen Game duties at the BBC with the offer of £15,000 a week to front this £250k-an-episode variety show of epic proportions. Two hours long, it had a moderately successful beginning but had a poor critical review. By the end, Forsyth was reduced to spending ten minutes of one programme trying to disseminate what had gone wrong. By the time the programme had been shortened and the ratings recovered, the programme was pulled.

There were many parts to the programme including an early version of The Pyramid Game and, later, All Star Secrets.

Trivia

The dance troupe were "Thirty Two Feet" (containing 16 people, presumably) with choreography by Brian Rogers.
