- 22:39, 9 October 2020 (hist) (diff) Two Tribes (→Trivia: also courtesy of the credits from the eps on YouTube, the first series was recorded at Riverside Studios (shortly before it closed for redevelopment), and the second at Elstree)
- 22:28, 9 October 2020 (hist) (diff) Two Tribes (→Trivia: slightly less cumbersome wording as regards the slot in which the show aired (no disrespect intended, of course))
- 22:14, 9 October 2020 (hist) (diff) Two Tribes (Several full episodes are on YouTube, and from them, we learn that that man Sylvan was responsible for the music ;))
- 21:25, 9 October 2020 (hist) (diff) Bullseye (→Trivia: "Jim Bowen claimed", of course, now that he's gone to the great TV studio in the sky)
- 21:22, 9 October 2020 (hist) (diff) Bullseye (The Bullseye theme is pretty well-known, and its composer hasn't been mentioned in this article yet... better put that right :))
- 17:19, 2 October 2020 (hist) (diff) Wait for It..! (Marc Sylvan composed the music for this, too. Thanks once again, YouTube :))
- 17:14, 2 October 2020 (hist) (diff) Wait for It..! (This was a BBC Scotland show)
- 17:04, 2 October 2020 (hist) (diff) Weakest Link (Removed the videos as, unfortunately, they're blocked by BBC Studios on copyright grounds)
- 17:03, 2 October 2020 (hist) (diff) Tara Palmer-Tomkinson (→Biography: pointed out the precise date in February 2017 on which TPT passed away) (top)
- 15:37, 2 October 2020 (hist) (diff) This Time Tomorrow (→Videos: made the frame wider, to increase the size of the picture and remove much of the black from the top and bottom. The show *was* in 16:9, after all ;))
- 16:09, 30 September 2020 (hist) (diff) Gridlock (Here is said video. It's a 4:3 picture in a 16:9 frame, with unremovable black bars either side - so the width and height here are such that the picture isn't too small *and* the frame isn't too wide)
- 15:44, 30 September 2020 (hist) (diff) Gridlock (We also know from this video where the show was recorded, and who composed the music)
- 15:18, 30 September 2020 (hist) (diff) Gridlock (There's a video on YouTube with two full episodes (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qY67tyk5k48&ab_channel=beauraing); from this, we learn that Clive Doig *didn't* devise this show all by himself)
- 01:59, 29 September 2020 (hist) (diff) Family Fortunes (Marc Sylvan is behind the latest rearrangement of Mike Alexander's theme. As it's the fourth, and similar to the ones in '93 and 2000, it might be worth describing the one used during the Vernon years)
- 00:49, 29 September 2020 (hist) (diff) This Time Next Year (May as well point out who composed the music)
- 00:35, 29 September 2020 (hist) (diff) That Puppet Game Show (→Trivia: slightly less cumbersome wording. And to be pedantic, the first six episodes all aired before 8pm, and the last two at around 3:30pm. No disrespect intended at any point here, of course)
- 16:29, 27 September 2020 (hist) (diff) The Vault (→Trivia: pointed out why Mel left midway through the third series, and corrected the number of episodes that Gabby presented)
- 16:25, 27 September 2020 (hist) (diff) The Vault (→Trivia: I wouldn't *quite* say "a rate of knots", as Mel Sykes hosted precisely half of the 32 episodes. For genuine rates of knots, see Chain Letters, or the first few years of Call My Bluff)
- 19:09, 22 September 2020 (hist) (diff) The Vault (→Trivia: gotta mention the four occasions on which the jackpot was won by a home caller, too - and especially the last of these)
- 16:38, 22 September 2020 (hist) (diff) All Time Winners List (Unless I'm mistaken, Kwan Loo's Vault jackpot win was on the 15th of June 2002, rather than the 19th. The first series of The Vault aired on Saturday nights, and the 19th was a Wednesday)
