  I vaguely remember this one.  Used to have a very old tape with stuff recorded on it from 1984, and about 10 minutes of this game show was on it.  Hosted by Stu Francis.

  Absolutely LOVED this one!!!  Used to watch this every week.  Was filmed in Liverpool as well.  He made crap music, but saved TV-am, and made this very popular show!  BBC1.

  Another one I LOVED!!!  So many good memories of this one.  The twins, Melanie & Martina Grant.  And, hosted by Pat Sharp, and his infamous long hair!!!

  I didn't mind this one, back in the day.  Used to be very good indeed.  Previous hosts were Mark Lamarr and Simon Amstell.  Liked it when Bill Bailey and Sean Hughes were on it.  Still ok now, but had better times IMHO.  BBC show.

  Always thought this one was ok.  Originally hosted by Angus Deayton, then he was sacked, and Guest Hosts ever since.  Regular captains, Ian Hislop and Paul Merton are pretty funny!

  Used to enjoy watching this one!  Was on Challenge, around the 6:00pm mark, years ago.  So many failures, very few successes!!  Narrated by Craig Charles.

  Now, I watched the UK version a few times, but much preferred the original, genuine, bona-fide Japanese version of this.  Hosted by Ben Shephard, Rochelle Humes and Chris Kamara, with Bruce Hammal (formerly the narrator of so many things at Sky, mainly Sport) introducing.

  Now you're talking!!!  Here's the original Ninja Warrior, or Sasuke as it's known as in Japan.  Loved watching this version so many times!  The Narrator for the UK showings was by Jim North.

  This one, another one I watch at around 4:30am, when still awake, as you do!  Wasn't one of the best, but defo not one of the worst.  Hosted by Richard Orford, formerly of The Big Breakfast.
