  Didn't mind this one.  Two pairs, one eliminated, then it all got exciting towards the very end, as they tried to take home the loot!  Hosted by Richard Arnold.

  Only saw this one a few times, but was funny, especially the end game, when the contestants all got greedy and ended up with nothing!!!   Hosted by Andrew Castle.

  Wasn't the biggest fan of this game show.  From the Summer of 2013, and was on ITV, when The Chase had finished their series.  Hosted by Julia Bradbury.

  Back to an all-time favourite!  The Krypton Factor!  :)   Here's the format for General Knowledge in 1978.  I remember the 4 contestants' heads, with their scores below them during this Round.  Also, a fresh-faced Gordon Burns!!!  :D

  I quite liked this one!  Very tough to achieve, and much better when done solo, or with someone who wasn't just after the money, but actually changed an answer to help win the money!  Hosted by Nick Knowles, BBC weekday show.

  Ah - Pressure Pad!!!!  Wasn't the greatest fan of this one, or the host.  Much worse game shows been made, however, many better ones.  John Barrowman was the host.

  Oh, hello - the infamous Black Chair!  This one, began in 1972, finished, then was brought back.  Original host was Magnus Magnusson.  Recent host is ex-BBC Newscaster, John Humphrys.

  And how I remember this one!!!  Weekday mornings or afternoons on ITV.  Originally done in the 50's and 60's, hosted by Eamonn Andrews, who also hosted the return in the mid 80's.  After his death, the presenter was Penelope Keith.  Glorious Garth Crooks in this episode!!!   :P

  This one, from the 80's, was on at weekends.  Produced by LWT, and hosted by Michael Aspel.  Wasn't that bad a game show, but there are many better ones!

  And, this one, done by BBC, was similar to the last game show posted.  I think this was on a Sunday evening.  Hosted by Ronnie Corbett.
