Synopsis

This show was basically a televised version of those "guess what this thing is we're showing you from an obscure angle" quizzes you tend to get in the more highbrow newspaper glossy supplements and puzzle magazines. There were a surprising amount of different ways they would hide things, none of which, I'm afraid to say, come to mind currently.
The end game was quite clever, though. Five cameramen were shooting five different objects in EXTREME CLOSE-UP. One member of the team had to guess what those five objects were within a minute. The clever thing was, the other player was directing the cameramen Golden Shot style to try and give them the best view of the object. They won £2000 if they got all five.
