- Lennie Bennett hosts the game of memory with Christopher Biggins, Faith Brown, Bob Carolgees, Diana Dors, Pearly Gates, David Hamilton, Barbara Kelly, Mike Reid, Wincey Willis and Gary Wilmot
Surprised Dave or another channel hasn’t ever revived this. Good format
Its a load of complete and utter shit
Probably get hosted by Bradley Walsh.
great find.
I remember this show well in my childhood days.
Remember this as a kid early 80s, Saturday night tele at it's best 🤣
Lovely Gary Wilmot. 😍
Great post, Faith Brown looks fantastic.
This is what we want
I was probably down the pub when this aired, thank Fck.
Omg forgot about this funny quiz show from the 80’s , bring back all this classics , don’t think a modern updated version would cut it though
I wonder if LWT wiped Punchlines. I’m surprised it’s never had a rerun on Challenge TV.
Thanks for this Diana a real STAR
From the USA, but a TISWAS aficionado here. Bob Carolgees and Spit the Dog? You know I'm gonna watch!
Enjoyed that. Thanks for the upload Neil. There are too few of these episodes uploaded.
Very Late 70s / early 80s were the golden time for ITV Saturday nights.
Provided you were actually born then, of course.
I’m so chuffed. Just googled spit the dog and he’s still going strong with Bob 😂
Faith brown 😍❤️
I'm not English(I'm Canadian)
And I wasn't around in the 80s
But this is good fun
Merry Christmas everyone
Great show from the 80's
"Dennis Thatcher turned to Maggie and said...."
"Boris will be gone soon, then you can stop revolving...."
Jeez the telly was better back then.
This has given me flashbacks!
I was making a video of celeb graves in Carleton Cem yesterday where Lenny is laid to rest along with a few others but I couldn't find his.
Great memories of a really good show with only a couple of them still around
Jesus he did a Bobby ball impression, around this time Lennie battered Bobby ball in the BBC canteen after Bobby picked a fight with him.
Bobby was well known for starting fights and running away, but Lennie battered him that day
Diana Dors! ❤
Faith Brown’s got her knockers, but I reckon she’s ok.
Watched this in 2023 and it’s better than the rubbish that’s on these days.
Its rumbled; this was recorded from Anglia TV! Anglia Continuity Announcer and many other Anglia rolls Patrick Anthony doing the end credit announcement.
"what did David frost say too Anna fraud??"
(2021 version.) "How's about this for a withdrawal agreement.."
Used to like wincy Willis on tvam, wander where she is nowadays
Wincey Willis now lives in Hereford & is an animal rights activist.

The chat with Diana Dors and Lenny at her intro seems a little ominous now in hindsight 😩
Still funny, I was surprised the humour has dated so well
I can imagine John Bishop or Tim Vine hosting a rebooted version.
Anyone but Bradley "bloody" Walsh!!
Trouble is there aren't enough celebrities now.
Warwicke Davis did host Celebrity Squares though. Similar show.
Last year, I overheard Boris telling Carrie about the vaccine.
He said, it was only a little prick but it might make her arm go numb....
When TV was well worth watching, shame it's full of rubbish now and naff reality TV
You're joking aren't you? TV has always been full of a lot of dross. The 80s were no exception. Just watched this because I don't remember it - I pity you if you think this was good. Absolute junk.
Eddie Shoestring wins a Hamper
A Harrods hamper, no less.
Were they really sat in boxes at various heights, or was it just made to look like that like they did on UNIVERSITY CHALLENGE ?
exelent question.
In round 2 the panel all switch places, and you see them all jostling for positions.
Mike Reid moves from 1 to 8
Wincey Willis from 2 to 5
Bob Carolgees and Spit the Dog from 3 to 2
Faith Brown from 4 to 7
Gary Wilmot from 5 to 4
Barbara Kelly from 6 to 1
Diddy David Hamilton from 7 to 6
Pearly Gates from 8 to 3
Where's Rose Marie. She was usually on the show
Wow was that black girl told to use the line im dreaming of a white christmas.or did she say it off her own back.bizzarre either way.i know .the times.
My Dads cousin had an affair with his wife (sad but true)
Whose wife?
it is great fun but jeez its a hard watch now..and that "White Christmas " joke ..OMG !.....
Yes
She could not say what she wanted to say lol.
It is called humour at no one's expense.
Oh this was a load of old shit wasn’t it
Lovely bit of low key racism
Those jokes were painfully unfunny
Typical 70's and 80's Brit Carry On "wit"
Terrible
So cringey
