-==Coming up==
-*''[[Mr and Mrs|Mr & Mrs]]'' - yes, it looks like the all-star revival is absolutely definitely, probably quite likely possibly ON! And [[Phillip Schofield]] and [[Fern Britton]] are lined up to host. (ITV, around April 2008)
-*''The Kids Are All Right'' (formerly ''The Swot Team''): [[John Barrowman]] hosts as contestants take on child prodigies in mental and physical challenges. (Endemol for BBC One)
-*''BrainBox'': daytime puzzle show described as a "brain-games" format. That Doctor Kawashima has a lot to answer for. (BBC Manchester for BBC Two)
-*''Big Kidz'', a CBBC show "where kids get to be grown ups and grown ups get to be kids," apparently. Kate Edmonson hosts.
-*''Saturday Night Showdown'' - [[Vernon Kay]] and [[Bruce Forsyth]] host what looks to be an old-style ''Gen Game''-type Saturday night game show. Hopefully they'll come up with a better title, though. (BBC1)
-*''Eating With The Enemy'' - knockout contest for amateur chefs. [[James Martin]] is to be a "mentor". (RDF West for BBC)
-*''Making a Meal of It'' - couples are challenged to take the reins of a busy restaurant. (BBC Birmingham for BBC1 Daytime)
-*''First and Last'', a show where people compete to be as average as possible, ironically to be hosted by [[Justin Lee Collins]]. Wikipedia has a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First_and_Last_%28TV_Show%29 description] of this format. (Endemol for Channel 4).
-*''Beat the Host'' - a German format apparently being "prepped" (as they say) for the British market, in which contestants take on the host in a series of games. A pilot has been made with [[Vernon Kay]]. (Diverse, ITV)
-*''Click City'' sends kids on a treasure hunt with mobile phones. (Lion TV, channel unknown)
-*''Space Pirates'': virtual reality adventure game for children. (Lion TV, channel unknown)
-*''Best in Preschool'': [[Lorraine Kelly]] and [[Dominic Wood]] test pre-schoolers on stuff. (ITV1, tbc)
-*''Tough Decisions'', a comedy quiz with Patrick McGuinness (Objective for E4)
