Objective for BBC 1, 5 August 1996 - 27 March 1997 (73 episodes in two series)
Synopsis
Amiable, if unoriginal, celebrity word game which filled the BBC1 lunchtime pre-news slot. Alphabets being something of an international requirement, it has subsequently sold to bucketloads of countries. Why Andrew O'Connor hasn't bought Trinidad and Tobago from the proceeds, we don't know.
Inventor
Created by Rebecca Thornhill, Mark Maxwell-Smith and Andrew O'Connor.
