- 23:50, 9 September 2022 (hist) (diff) Saturday Night Takeaway (→Broadcast: nine series thus far since 2013, with seven episodes in each series bar 2018, which had only six)
- 23:46, 9 September 2022 (hist) (diff) Saturday Night Takeaway (I have said before that the last few episodes of the 2021 series look to have been the first ones under Lifted. Can someone confirm or disprove this, *and* summarise as well (no disrespect intended)?)
- 19:24, 7 September 2022 (hist) (diff) Before They Were Famous ("...with Alexandra Burke pictured at the bottom right". I'm probably being ultra fussy here (without intending to be disrespectful, of course), but I see no great need for the word "pictured" ;))
- 19:20, 7 September 2022 (hist) (diff) Before They Were Famous (→Music: the bit about the Star for a Night junior one-off is *immediately* below the corresponding picture, and so I see no great need for a link to the show's article in the picture's caption)
- 19:13, 7 September 2022 (hist) (diff) Before They Were Famous (→Music: the sentence about Alexandra Burke can be shorter, and less repetitive (no disrespect intended, of course) :))
- 18:56, 7 September 2022 (hist) (diff) Before They Were Famous (→Actors/Presenters/Broadcasters: "Actor, presenter and The X Factor judge Amanda Holden..." Oops, wrong Syco show ;))
- 18:53, 7 September 2022 (hist) (diff) Before They Were Famous (→Actors/Presenters/Broadcasters: ...and likewise with Stephen Fry. ;) Worth pointing out his team nearly won that particular series, too)
- 18:48, 7 September 2022 (hist) (diff) Before They Were Famous (Miriam Margolyes appeared on the very first series of UC, in fact (1962-3). And to save people the hassle of going elsewhere to find out which college she represented... :))
- 18:33, 7 September 2022 (hist) (diff) Before They Were Famous (Sorted Aaron Bell's game show achievements chronologically. I remember his DOND appearance well, because he played the day before Lucy Harrington, who did a record 50 shows yet only won a fiver)
- 16:25, 7 September 2022 (hist) (diff) Limitless Win (→Theme music: ...juuuust in case anyone's wondering "*That* Gary Barlow? Really?" ;))
- 16:18, 7 September 2022 (hist) (diff) Limitless Win (→Catchphrases: shouldn't there be quotation marks here?)
- 15:52, 7 September 2022 (hist) (diff) Strictly Come Dancing (→Participants: added the link to Robert Webb's article)
- 15:51, 7 September 2022 (hist) (diff) Robert Webb (→Shows: Robert took part in the 2021 series of Strictly, but had to withdraw early on due to ill health) (top)
- 15:47, 7 September 2022 (hist) (diff) Suzi Perry (→Contact: Suzi's now signed to Crown Talent Group, whose other clients include Dan Walker and Craig Doyle) (top)
- 15:39, 7 September 2022 (hist) (diff) Index W (→People: added Dan Walker)
- 15:39, 7 September 2022 (hist) (diff) Strictly Come Dancing (→Participants: I've just created Dan Walker's UKGS profile ;))
- 15:37, 7 September 2022 (hist) (diff) Chase the Case (I've just created Dan's UKGS profile ;))
- 15:37, 7 September 2022 (hist) (diff) N Dan Walker (Dan's presented Chase the Case and done Strictly, and that certainly qualifies him for a UKGS profile. ;) I've also pointed out the agency he's signed to, if this is still allowed) (top)
- 15:30, 7 September 2022 (hist) (diff) N File:DanWalker.jpg (top)
- 14:40, 7 September 2022 (hist) (diff) University Challenge (→Theme music: blimey, the Balanescu Quartet's version has been used for 22 years now... what are the chances of a new version when Amol takes over the host's chair?)
- 14:19, 7 September 2022 (hist) (diff) Money Pit (→Theme music: plain "Music" is a common credit, so this sentence can be shorter ;))
- 14:05, 7 September 2022 (hist) (diff) RuPaul (→Trivia: may I add his full name?)
- 13:59, 7 September 2022 (hist) (diff) Prickly Heat (→Host: "Presenter X with: Co-Presenter A (yr1-yr2), Co-Presenter B (yr2-yr3)" looks that bit better than "Presenter X (and Co-Presenter A from yr1-yr2 / Co-Presenter B from yr2-yr3)", IMO) (top)
- 01:10, 7 September 2022 (hist) (diff) Category:Twenty Twenty Productions (Did I change "Shows" at the start to "Productions"? Oops... I meant "Programmes", of course :))
- 01:03, 7 September 2022 (hist) (diff) Category:Twenty Twenty Productions (Tidied the last sentence. The acquisition of Shed by Time Warner (as was) took place in 2010)
- 00:55, 7 September 2022 (hist) (diff) Category:Twenty Twenty Productions (Twenty Twenty produces such shows as First Dates now, but it used to specialise in current affairs documentaries - Claudia Milne, who left when Shed took over, had previously worked on World in Action)
- 00:45, 7 September 2022 (hist) (diff) Category:Twenty Twenty Productions (Mentioned the founders. You might get an idea why in my next edit... ;))
- 23:56, 6 September 2022 (hist) (diff) Let's Dance (→Participants: here's the 2017 line-up)
- 23:06, 6 September 2022 (hist) (diff) Let's Dance (→Champions: we're off to see the Chasers, the wonderful Chasers of Oz: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BUYo5CmWdfw&ab_channel=BBC)
- 22:55, 6 September 2022 (hist) (diff) Let's Dance (→Synopsis: updated to 2017. Obviously, the two series in even-numbered years were for Sport Relief ;))
- 20:40, 6 September 2022 (hist) (diff) Let's Dance (→Synopsis: clarified that the judging panel in the first series was ADB plus two guests)
- 20:29, 6 September 2022 (hist) (diff) Let's Dance (→Synopsis: I don't think "Comic Relief" needs to be italicised - it *is* a charity rather than a TV programme, after all. ;) For that matter, I see no great need to italicise "Sport Relief" either)
- 20:22, 6 September 2022 (hist) (diff) Let's Dance ("Presenter X (yr1-yr3) with: Co-Presenter A (yr1-yr2), Co-Presenter B (yr2-yr3)" is neater, I think, than "Presenter X (yr1-yr3) (and Co-Presenter A from yr1-yr2 / Co-Presenter B from yr2-yr3)")
- 21:20, 5 September 2022 (hist) (diff) Survivor (→Trivia: a bit fussy, but I've moved the word "while" in the last sentence. The Beeb version will probably be in a third location, and of course the CBS version used to change location each season)
- 21:11, 5 September 2022 (hist) (diff) Survivor (→Trivia: and her PYCR appearance was in 1999. Thanks for repeating it over and over, Challenge... ;))
- 21:08, 5 September 2022 (hist) (diff) Survivor (→Co-hosts: Charlotte Hobrough's surname is only eight letters long ;))
- 21:07, 5 September 2022 (hist) (diff) Survivor (...should we wait until it's actually in production? Also, this probably won't happen, but it *could* be produced and then get locked away in a BBC vault never to see the light of day...)
- 21:01, 5 September 2022 (hist) (diff) News Archive (→Game show news: come to think of it, "the Beeb has spoken" is even better, isn't it? Tribe, Beeb... both one-syllable words ending with a 'b' sound ;))
- 21:00, 5 September 2022 (hist) (diff) News Archive (Yes, I've rather rewritten this story. In particular, I think it should be mentioned that it'll be a Remarkable production for BBC1. Any bits that sound too snarky, feel free to remove or sweeten :))
- 20:40, 5 September 2022 (hist) (diff) News Archive (→Game show news: this might be a better headline, based on "the tribe has spoken, you must leave")
- 20:37, 5 September 2022 (hist) (diff) News Archive (→Game show news: as I said before - and again without any disrespect intended - images in this section are usually squares rather than rectangles)
- 20:34, 5 September 2022 (hist) (diff) N File:Square Survivor UK Logo.jpg (Square image of the original Survivor UK logo) (top)
- 22:27, 1 September 2022 (hist) (diff) News Archive (→Game show news: no disrespect intended, but there's a good reason why the images in this section are usually squares rather than vertical rectangles...)
- 22:24, 1 September 2022 (hist) (diff) N File:Square bill turnbull.jpg (Square image of Bill Turnbull) (top)
- 22:14, 1 September 2022 (hist) (diff) News Archive (→Game show news: Bill presented Breakfast for *only* fifteen years. Dan Walker replaced him in 2016)
- 21:14, 1 September 2022 (hist) (diff) University Challenge (→Key moments: that incident with Messrs Turnbull and McGinty was in the 2012 series: https://www.blanchflower.org/uc/results_christmas.html#christmas2012)
- 21:36, 29 August 2022 (hist) (diff) Rebound (→Trivia: that's future *Chaser*, right? ;)) (top)
- 23:22, 26 August 2022 (hist) (diff) Mastermind (→Celebrity Mastermind: blimey, Monty Don as well ;))
- 23:19, 26 August 2022 (hist) (diff) Mastermind (→Celebrity Mastermind: Toyah has a UKGS article too, I notice ;))
- 23:15, 26 August 2022 (hist) (diff) Mastermind (→Celebrity Mastermind: added non-breaking spaces after the respective longest names in each of the first four columns, to make the list that bit more presentable)
