This list has been compiled for a few reasons:
+
<div class="box">
 +
== People ==
-
* First, the index is getting so long that it can be difficult to see the wood for the trees. Therefore, some shows may be worthy of highlighting.
+
[[John Eccleston|Eccleston, John]]
-
* It could be useful to shortlist articles that could do with some sort of 'Featured Article' status on which we could concentrate our efforts for pictures, videos etc.
+
-
* Also, it could come in useful for other uses - e.g. maybe to nominate which shows we could put into a spin-off book or somesuch.
+
-
== Candidate list==
+
[[Jenny Eclair|Eclair, Jenny]]
-
There's something like 150 shows in here. Feel free to delete and add shows as you see appropriate. Some criteria:
+
[[Noel Edmonds|Edmonds, Noel]]
-
*[[:Category:Long-Running|Long running]] shows are definitely IN (with a few exceptions).
+
[[Matt Edmondson|Edmondson, Matt]]
-
* Programmes that are very borderline "Are they British game shows or not?" are OUT (e.g. [[You've Been Framed!]], [[Time Team]], [[Eurovision Song Contest]]).
+
-
* Shows that brought something genuinely new to the table, or were early examples of other, are probably IN (e.g. [[Spy]], [[Late Night Poker]], [[The Villa]]).
+
-
* Shows that had three or four series but were highly derivative (e.g. [[Dog Eat Dog]], ) are probably OUT unless otherwise justified.
+
-
* Shows that people would expect to see in a popular book about game shows are IN (e.g. [[Lucky Ladders]]).
+
-
* General bias towards popular, successful shows. So even though [[The People Versus]] is significant, it's probably not quite above the tidemark of notability.

<pick>'''Edited for broadcast''' - In some countries – notably the USA – it is a requirement to make the TV audience aware of any differences in the show they see compared to what actually happened in the studio. This can happen if a technical problem or game error occurs, or if the taping ran over its allotted time. A statement such as "This program was edited for broadcast but the overall result was not affected" will appear in the credits.</pick>
