They dropped the member of the public after an incident from the second show in the second series - the gentleman in Lionel's team read the wrong side of the card given to him, and thus mimed his own name! There are also some visual moments, aside from some of the fashion, that may make some modern audiences uncomfortable. All episodes I’ve watched so far recently have been from the Michael Aspel/Una Stubbs/Lionel Blair era, with the earliest series utilising a re-recording of Alan Hawkshaw’s Chicken Man as its theme (the library piece is best known as the theme from Grange Hill).

The show’s loose demeanour leaves things open for all kinds of double entendres and unexpected moments; Actor Tony Selby’s reaction to being asked to mime the Australian TV series Chopper Squad; The unique Kenneth Williams, channelling his Just a Minute energy for all kinds of witty quips; Every time Una Stubbs plays a round; David Jason’s very verbal and physical prescience; Michael Aspel’s quick thinking. Presented here are all the episodes from the Michael Aspel era, now available on DVD courtesy of Network.

Celebrity guests include Kenneth Williams, Diana Dors, Barbara Windsor, David Jason, Spike Milligan and Victoria Wood. As well as having a bit of a competitive edge, he's also very warm and seems to genuinely enjoy the company of the guests. There are a number of set gestures which can be used, such as book, television, film, but the rest are totally open to interpretation which leads to a large amount of hilarity as you can well imagine. The game is based on charades, a party game where players used mime rather than speaking to demonstrate a name, phrase, book, play, film or TV programme. I fell into the wormhole by watching one of Honor Blackman’s episodes off the back of my current rewatch of The Upper Hand.This includes, without limitation, direct loss, loss of business or profits (whether or not the loss of such profits was foreseeable, arose in the normal course of things or you have advised this Company of the possibility of such potential loss), damage caused to your computer, computer software, systems and programs and the data thereon or any other direct or indirect, consequential and incidental damages.

If to do were as easy as to know what were good to do, chapels had been churches, and poor men's cottages princes' palaces.

Yet here she is on Give Us A Clue, alongside Una Stubbs and Angela Douglas, studiously watching John Inman giving us The Wayward Wind in the quiet hope of stealing a point from the boys' team.
