Synopsis
A silly panel game, not a million miles removed from the original concept of I'm Sorry I Haven't a Clue, but with young-ish people on it. It seemed to be universally despised at the time, at least by the people who wrote in to Feedback about it, for two main reasons:
1) it was part of a series of unpopular changes instigated by new Radio 4 controller James Boyle (with only X Marks the Spot and Puzzle Panel surviving intact), and
2) some people thought that there was "F-u-c" missing from the start of the title, though the producer denied that allusion.
With a change of name and host, it re-emerged as The 99p Challenge and lived happily ever after, despite the involvement of Peter Baynham.
