The old episodes are hilarious. Not for Jim`s jokes, but the fashion from the 70s and the prizes.
State of the art tv complete with teletext.
Commodore computer.
Top of thw range teasmade.
Latest cooking technology,...microwave
Top of the range Walkman..
Questions for a tenner and prize money below £100
Haircuts are phenominal.
I liked the format, especially eliminated couples getting a second chance.
I couldn`t understand the star prizes though.
Holidays and caravans, even boats could be shared, but who gets the car or the three piece suite?

But before my time but I remember things like Strike it Lucky and Generation Game and wondering what people would do with some of the crap. I was always impressed with the games consoles but it`d be followed by "a weekend away in Skegness" or "A complete dinner set" and I`d be thinking "I just want the Playstation!".
I don`t think they really make many of these programmes anymore. The days of families sitting round watching TV together are long gone. Bit of a shame really.

Ye can`t beat a bit of Bully.
I watch the full run every couple of years, even the Dave Spikey ones are quite good.

To be fair, the game shows these days are mainly quizzes with fairly large sums of money at stake. Win a decent Tenable or Chase and you could buy most of the above anyway.
