About this deal

Kennedy also won a coveted Golden Logie for his work, for being one of the biggest personalities on TV. The host read the statement out and then the six celebrities wrote down the answer that they think would fit the blanks. One thing neglected to be mentioned last time out for this new version of the show is that it has reintroduced the "panellists wave at the camera during the opening credits" sequence. Whether or not His Dark Material is appropriate stuff for comedy is a long discussion for another time but the question here is: should someone who has their own 18 certificate comedy special joking about almost any subject you can think of be a contestant on a family quiz show airing (just) pre-watershed?

Another one in the same year featured 3 weathermen (Michael Fish, John Kettley, and Ian McCaskill) and the Beverley Sisters. Less successful is Bradley's regular habit of asking the panel if they've worked with each other before, causing the canned laughter machine to be dusted off whenever we get to hear about whichever reality TV show they've appeared on together.The winner went through to the Supermatch Game (with the appropriate "Supermatch Game" theme tune, which was nearly as inane as the "Blankety Blank" one). By the early-2000s he had got into TV acting, and he was one of the few people brave enough to appear in the bizarre soap Night And Day. This will probably be the final original American version of a game show that later came to the UK that I’ll review, but I might go on to consider reviewing some Irish and Australian versions too because I am just fascinated by the world of game shows and I really enjoy putting the pieces together (and I hope that you’ve found them an interesting read too). It's not that the original Blankety Blank didn't scrape the barrel on more than the odd occasion, but Kemp became the "digital presenter and social media correspondent" for The X-Factor, and then branched out into Celebrity Gogglebox and I'm A Celebrity.

There was also the producer who Kennedy referred to as “the moustache twirler”, who would have the final say on if the answer would be determined to be correct or not. However, due to differences in computer monitors, we cannot be responsible for the variations in colour between the actual product and your screen. For at least the last two episodes he'd recorded beforehand he was noticeably ill; you'd think the BBC would have had a stand-by presenter but apparently not. This was initially by means of a revolving image (during the Wogan-era), then later by visuals that parted in the style of curtains to show each celeb's face (during the early Dawson-era). Various prizes in the early-90s revival included a telephone and pocket TV that seemingly only ever showed a picture of Bruce Forsyth’s co-host Rosemarie Ford.

But with a series where even the theme tune is clapped along with, it's an incredibly noisy experience, constant volume taking the place of any genuine wit, very much a Phil Spectorish Wall of Shite. Part of the reason is that it's simply beyond the nature of time to do a more in-depth article: any autobiographies that are likely to mention being on this version of the show are yet to be ghostwritten. When the wallet is empty, turn the whole set of questions upside down and place them all back in the wallet - Remember to replace the Key Cards.

When I saw Blankety Blank whilst on vacation in England, I sat flabbergasted, going "it's Match Game.In the early-80s Bradley Walsh was originally a footballer, although he never played at the highest level, and injuries put an early end to his career. Now it could be said that it seemed that he didn’t seem to know what was happening half the time, including trying to interact with the celebrity panellists, but this was a game where it wasn’t too much of a problem, as this wasn’t to be taken too seriously. One of the greatest blights on today's society is the inexplicable overuse of the word "literally", particularly when used for something that's not literal.
