Synopsis
From the cast list, you would probably expect a cinema quiz, and fair enough, so did we. Leading lady Margaret Lockwood was in the chair, with two teams each made up of a dramatic actor, a comic actor, and a screenwriter: Kenneth Home, Leslie Phillips and lain MacCormick versus Michael Trubshawe, David Tomlinson and Eric Sykes.
But it wasn't about cinema after all. The game was for the three members of a team to make up a story in ten-second segments, into which thay had to slip a particular phrase to be guessed by their opponents (similar to The Railway Carriage Game three decades later).
