Host
Not known
Broadcast
STV (not networked), February to May? 1978
(also shown later that year on Thames)
Synopsis
A bit of a mystery format, but partly recalled by reader David Smith:
- I can't remember much about it other than that it was hosted by a man and a woman, and the man was someone like Jack McLaughlin, Allan Stewart or some DJ type. The format was probably about seeing whether men or women know more about general knowledge or possibly each other - I have a hazy memory of there being lights with up and down arrows a bit like the ones that were later used on Play Your Cards Right.
- I can find little on the net about it other than that it seems to have been an American format.
We can add that it was shown on Friday nights at 6.30, when other regions were seeing Crossroads, and it was later picked up by Thames, who showed it at lunchtimes. But beyond that, we've drawn a blank. Over to you, then...
