Used to love Gamesmaster, Jose!!! :D The late Patrick Moore being the Master, and the original host - DOMINIK DIAMOND!!!!!!!!! Hahaha!!!! Whatever happened to him???!!! I remember he left, Dexter Fletcher took over, then he left, DD came back, but it was too late, as Gamesmaster was on the way out by that point.

Here's another game show from yesteryear, an obscure one, hosted by Richard Bacon, and having 4 well-known Game Show hosts in as well!!!

I remember this game show from back in 87!!!!! Was only a young pup, but was on after John Craven's Newsround, I think, and before Neighbours!!! :P Hosted by former BBC Newscaster, Angela Rippon.

Have just seen your posts re: Ninja Warrior, thelizard69. Well, if you enjoyed the groundhog day that was the first series..you will be pleased to know that series 2 starts this saturday. Hang on, usually we are only meant to be subjected to this kinda samey samey once a year (one series per year) only seems like 2 seconds ago the 1st series finished. To be fair, if the obstacles are mixed up week on week (NOT just rehashes of the same bloody thing week on week) then this may stand a chance with me. If not, more yawn inducing groundhog day inspired torture with the most entertining thing being Chris Kamara just laughing at every poor bugger who fluffs it lol.

Did anyone watch Takeshi's Castle?, used to love watching that show, the contestants(Japanese I believe?) were totally insane, and some of the games/challenges were bizarre as well, all voiced over by Craig Charles (yes he of Robot Wars & Red Dwarf), some of the stuff he came out with was hilarious

Yes gymaddict, the UK version of Ninja Warrior is back, and I wasn't a fan of the first series. Much prefer the original, Japanese version.

And yes, Outlaw, I remember Takeshi's Castle! Loved that programme, and Craig Charles did come out with some funny lines/sayings during every episode!

Sorry, but I can't stand this new ITV game show!!!! Weekdays at 3:00pm. Hosted by Stephen Mulhearn, who I have never liked.

Stephen Mulhern :@ :s what a joke of a 'presenter' that guy is, seriously, used to really like Catchprase back in the Roy Walker days, but he's come along and ruined it, like most things he presents these days, should have stuck with kids tv & crap magic tricks in my opinion

Im with ya as far as Mulhern's daytime offerings go, Outlaw1987 (Catchphrase etc..) but for me the exception to the rule is when he is allowed to operate later at night. Im referring to his presenting of Britains Got More Talent. I think he is absolutely hysteriical on that. Oh and off topic, have caught a few episodes 2nd hand of the new series of Ninja Warrior UK and you know what..its the same flaming bollocks as the first series..what a shocker haha
