Poll of the Year 2019 - THE RESULTS!
We asked, you answered, and now it's time to see what you voted for in the UKGameshows.com/Bother's Bar Poll of the Year!
The 100 Most Popular Game Shows
One question you almost certainly haven't been asking yourself is "What are the 100 most popular articles on this site?". Well, tough, because we have and you can see the result of our Greatest Game Shows - it lists stalwarts like The Crystal Maze and Interceptor to surprises such as Kate Thornton's Dishes. Who knew?
While UKGameshows.com is (even if we say so ourselves) the most comprehensive guide to the genre anywhere on - or off - the web, with over 2100 programmes already in our database it is inevitable that even we're stumped sometimes. So we're asking for your help. A number of our "most wanted" shows are now listed here and a team of volunteers is standing by, waiting to add your contributions to our compendium of game show knowledge. Go on, help us out. It's what Mumsy would want.

The death has been announced of Dave Rainford, aged 51. He joined the Eggheads in 2012. Prior to this, he appeared as a contestant on Remote Control and Who Wants To Be A Millionaire?
The United Kingdom's entry for the 2020 Eurovision Song Contest has been announced as My Last Breath, performed by James Newman, who co-wrote Ireland's 2017 entry. It is the first entry co-selected by BMG, who teamed up with the BBC following four years of selection by public vote.
The death has been announced of Caroline Flack, aged 40, after a trial by media following her 12 December arrest.

The death has been announced of Nicholas Parsons, aged 96, after a short illness. Although his showbiz career spanned three quarters of a century, Parsons was best known for chairing Just a Minute from its inception in 1967, as well as Sale of the Century. You can read Iain Weaver's two-part appreciation from 2017, starting with part one.
Sandi Toksvig has announced that she is leaving The Great British Bake Off in order to focus on other work commitments. Her final series will be the next series of The Great Celebrity Bake Off for Stand Up To Cancer, due to air in the spring. Searches for a replacement are underway.
