Synopsis

The first of Monkhouse's many quiz shows. Married couples took part in this knock-out competition for the top prize of £2 a week for one year (or, er, £104). Contestants would be asked "Would you like to answer this one yourself, or do you trust your wife to answer it?"

In 1957, it was reversioned as Bury Your Hatchet.

Inventor

Presented by arrangement with Don Fedderson. It was based on a US game show hosted by Johnny Carson.
