Blockbusters - The ITV Quiz Game - Featuring Bob Holness

Product Information

Turkey – The Turkish version called Haydi Bastir ( Let's Print) aired on Show TV from 1992 to 1993, the host was Mim Kemal Öke. Additionally, its set (and intro) looks similar to the original Holness era. In the 1980 pilot, the podiums had three digit eggcrate displays. The current scores would only be shown in-between games. When the show went to series that same year, the displays would be covered.

Marc Sylvan and Richard Jacques updated the original theme for the Comedy Central version. [8] Title sequences [ edit ] Tyne Tees and Yorkshire: Around 70 episodes from Tuesdays to Thursdays at 6.30pm between 11 July to 29 December 1995. In 2006, a DVD game based on the show was released by Circle Studio under license from FremantleMedia, with Bob Holness reprising his position at the helm. The DVD is based on the same format as the TV show, with a virtual set design and game graphics matching the original version of the programme. [18] New opponents are chosen and the Head to Head and Movie round starts over again. The winning team is the first to get all eight different coloured genre cards laid out in front of them. The 1987 version of this show was the only series Bill Rafferty ever hosted on network television as all his others aired in syndication [ Every Second Counts (1984–1985) & Card Sharks (1986–1987)].

After a 14-year-long hiatus, the contest was revived in 2008 as part of the newspaper's 30th-anniversary celebrations. It was also held in 2009 where the team "Anonymoys +3" whose members included Rahul Menon and Aayush Rajasekaran of The Indian High School, Dubai stood first place. This marked the second year that a team from the Indian High School defeated one from long-time rivals The Modern High School to claim first place. [49] The side who won the best of three matches went on to play the Gold Run. In this game, the participant (either the white player, or a nominated player from the blue team) had to work their way across the board from left to right within 60 seconds (or "within that magic minute", as Bob often put it). The hexagons had letter combinations such as "MTOC" and the contestants had to work out what these stood for using clues given by the host. e.g. "Famous humanitarian from India" would be "Mother Theresa of Calcutta".
