Host
Geoffrey Perkins
Broadcast
Open Media for Channel 4, 4 June to 22 October 1990 (20 episodes in 1 series + 1 unaired)
Synopsis
Quotation quiz with a high-level concept of using things that some people might have preferred to have forgotten about - things like Margaret Thatcher's famous "I doubt there will be a female Prime Minister in my lifetime."
Notable for the closing line: "We'll be back next year with a new series ... but don't quote me." (It wasn't recommissioned - see below.)
Inventor
Justin Scroggie and David Britland
Trivia
Was commissioned for an extraordinarily long 20-show run, which exhausted the production team and probably killed off any hopes of a returning series.
Producers Open Media are perhaps best known for creating Channel 4's open-ended discussion show 'After Dark' - and later revived the topical monologue strand 'Opinions'. This was its first light entertainment commission.
