Synopsis
Two teams of three celebrities compete in a number of parlour games. A bit like Gibberish.

Then the second player would say: "I packed my bag, and in it I put a clock and [for example] a paperclip." This would continue, with the players having to remember everything that had been put in the bag in the right order. If they got it wrong, they were out of the round. Alfred Marks was fond of putting things such as leopards in his bag, apparently.
