- 17:55, 21 July 2022 (hist) (diff) N File:Carlton1996.jpg (A frame from one of the Carlton idents used from 25 November 1996 to 3 September 1999) (top)
- 17:39, 21 July 2022 (hist) (diff) Category:Carlton Productions (Here's one of Carlton's light-based idents used from September 1995 to November 1996 - a reminder that it only added the star to its logo in September 1999)
- 17:29, 21 July 2022 (hist) (diff) N File:Carlton1995.jpg (One of the Carlton idents used from 4 September 1995 to 22 November 1996) (top)
- 21:37, 17 July 2022 (hist) (diff) Category:HTV Productions (Given the rather complicated history of ITV in North and South Wales prior to 20 May 1968, it's probably better to simply say that Harlech/HTV took over from TWW)
- 21:25, 17 July 2022 (hist) (diff) Iain Stirling (With all due respect, Ian Stirling (with only one I in his first name) *was* most famous for being a continuity announcer on Westward and TSW for many years, even if you didn't live in the South West) (top)
- 21:18, 17 July 2022 (hist) (diff) Russell Davies (And as is customary, here are his That Other Wiki (copyright Weaver) and IMDb entries ;))
- 21:14, 17 July 2022 (hist) (diff) Russell Davies (Of course, there's another famous Welshman named Russell Davies... *Doctor Who theme plays*)
- 21:07, 17 July 2022 (hist) (diff) Russell Davies (Russell's arguably one of the most famous people from Barmouth ;))
- 21:01, 17 July 2022 (hist) (diff) Russell Davies (Surprisingly, not many images of Russell on the interwebs - but this one will do)
- 20:59, 17 July 2022 (hist) (diff) N File:RussellDavies.jpg (top)
- 19:51, 17 July 2022 (hist) (diff) News Archive (I can't fight the urge to simplify the Chris Stuart story, even though it's four days old. Founding the production company behind OC *was* what he was best known for in the game show world, wasn't it?)
- 00:31, 11 July 2022 (hist) (diff) Yung Filly (Here's YF's real name, so that one doesn't have to go looking elsewhere for it ;))
- 19:36, 2 July 2022 (hist) (diff) People's Quiz (→Synopsis: tidied the paragraph about the end game slightly)
- 17:41, 2 July 2022 (hist) (diff) People's Quiz (→Champion: Olav Bjortomt was a finalist too, and of course he and the Beast both took part in Grand Slam)
- 15:30, 2 July 2022 (hist) (diff) UKGameshows:Staffers (→Edit queries - July 2022: "http://" or "https://"?)
- 14:44, 2 July 2022 (hist) (diff) People's Quiz (→Web links: http://www.bbc.co.uk/peoplesquiz/ now redirects to a page for the National Lottery Draws (which the Beeb doesn't show any more, of course). Thank heavens for the Wayback Machine :))
- 14:37, 2 July 2022 (hist) (diff) People's Quiz (Worth pointing out that Stephanie beat Mark "The Beast" Labbett, and that Will "Magdalen" Cudmore was one of the other finalists (not often someone goes on UC having already appeared on another quiz))
- 03:46, 2 July 2022 (hist) (diff) Eggheads (Undo revision 91400 by Showells (Talk) With respect, that's a matter of opinion...)
- 04:07, 1 July 2022 (hist) (diff) Winning Lines (→Prize destinations: I misspelled "Mediterranean" there, didn't I? Oopsie doodle :))
- 02:45, 1 July 2022 (hist) (diff) Winning Lines (→Miscellaneous: and is it reasonable to suggest, too, that the cash Wonderwalls were discontinued on cost grounds? Winning Lines *was* one of the more expensive Lottery game shows, after all)
- 02:36, 1 July 2022 (hist) (diff) Winning Lines (→Miscellaneous: there were 22 cash Wonderwalls, and the £5k top prize was won only once - is it reasonable to suggest that the lack of pitstops played a part in this?)
- 02:32, 1 July 2022 (hist) (diff) Winning Lines (A rewrite regarding the midweek cash Wonderwalls of 2001. I believe the teenage me suggested the addition of this bit all the way back in 2006 (with rather different wording back then, of course)...)
- 02:04, 1 July 2022 (hist) (diff) Winning Lines (→Theme music: since the music is mentioned in the third paragraph of the synopsis, and the Strachans were geniuses, perhaps it's better to say that they composed *the* full score ;))
- 02:02, 1 July 2022 (hist) (diff) Winning Lines (→Synopsis: "permanantly" -> "permanently". Also, I think only one link to the Reverend Mayo's article is necessary in the first paragraph)
- 01:13, 1 July 2022 (hist) (diff) Winning Lines (→Trivia: Wonderwalls from all six series - including the third series before and after 9/11 - are currently on YouTube, so we can note *all* the changes that were made to the prize destinations :))
- 23:48, 30 June 2022 (hist) (diff) Winning Lines (→Synopsis: Winning Lines ended *eighteen* years ago (brrrr), so I wonder if Pip should now be described as the *second* host rather than the *new* host?)
- 23:22, 30 June 2022 (hist) (diff) Winning Lines (→Postscript: although Who Dares Wins began some three years after the 'Lines ended, it too lasted longer)
- 23:11, 30 June 2022 (hist) (diff) Winning Lines (I suspect most people already know that the Strachans were responsible for Winning Lines' music - but for those who don't... :))
- 23:01, 30 June 2022 (hist) (diff) Index D (Changed all instances of "Stunt/dare show" to "Stunts and dares", for consistency across this page and to match the name of the corresponding category)
- 22:50, 30 June 2022 (hist) (diff) The Wall (→Inventor: I think it should be pointed out that a certain basketball player had a hand in the creation of this show...)
- 22:40, 30 June 2022 (hist) (diff) The Wall (C'était le logo de la version française. Voici le logo des versions en anglais, dont la version britannique ;))
- 22:32, 30 June 2022 (hist) (diff) N File:TheWallLogoEnglish.jpg (The logo for English-language versions of The Wall) (top)
- 22:23, 30 June 2022 (hist) (diff) Dale Winton (→Biography: may I add the names of the Nottingham and Wolverhampton radio stations Dale worked at? These names are long gone, but are presumably still fondly remembered in their respective cities)
- 22:17, 30 June 2022 (hist) (diff) Dale Winton (→Biography: if In It to Win It is mentioned, then surely the 'Sweep has to be mentioned too? Might be worth pointing out as well that IITWI was the longest-running Lottery game show)
- 21:29, 30 June 2022 (hist) (diff) News Archive (→Game show news: following a reconsideration, this is probably a better headline. Also, with the exception of two specials, the 'Juice has been on ITV2 all its life, hasn't it?)
- 21:21, 30 June 2022 (hist) (diff) Celebrity Juice (The 'Juice is coming to an end four years after it qualified for this site's Long-Running category)
- 21:18, 30 June 2022 (hist) (diff) News Archive (→Game show news: old news because it was yesterday, but I think it's still worth adding as the 'Juice does qualify for this site's Long-Running category...)
- 20:58, 30 June 2022 (hist) (diff) News Archive (→Game show news: I hope I'm not being disrespectful here in adding Hilary's and Our Graham's respective ages. It's purely for the purpose of expanding these two stories ever so slightly)
- 20:46, 30 June 2022 (hist) (diff) Sally Lindsay (Is it OK to change "actor" to "actress"? No sexism intended, of course. Also, Sally's very much a lady of Granadaland, so it's worth pointing out where in it she was born)
- 20:37, 30 June 2022 (hist) (diff) Play Your Cards Right (→Catchphrases: with all due respect, folks, no-one likes what That Other Wiki (copyright Weaver) terms "edit wars"... Anyway, tidied up a bit regarding Bruce's "when I was a Chippendale..." quote)
- 15:13, 25 June 2022 (hist) (diff) Go 8 Bit (→Trivia: added missing full stop :))
- 15:09, 25 June 2022 (hist) (diff) Go 8 Bit (→Title music: changed "Title" to "Theme", again purely for consistency)
- 15:06, 25 June 2022 (hist) (diff) Go 8 Bit (→Synopsis: some more picture switching, so that the Chuckie Egg one immediately follows "The best way to explore games..." and the Tetris one immediately follows "Each week's final challenge...")
- 14:55, 25 June 2022 (hist) (diff) Go 8 Bit (→Synopsis: and putting the picture of the audience vote immediately below the line about it. Also, just in case people don't remember Brucie rapping on YB!...)
- 14:47, 25 June 2022 (hist) (diff) Go 8 Bit (→Synopsis: for instance, putting the picture of the rotating stage immediately below the line starting "And there's a gimmick...")
- 14:44, 25 June 2022 (hist) (diff) Go 8 Bit (→Synopsis: changed "revolving" to "rotating" purely for consistency. I intend to swap most, if not all, of these pictures around, so that - shall we say - they're better connected to the text)
- 14:35, 25 June 2022 (hist) (diff) Go 8 Bit (→Synopsis: AFAIK, Dara never made any Pointless references on this show, though obviously Ellie's role was not dissimilar to Richard's)
- 14:22, 25 June 2022 (hist) (diff) Go 8 Bit (→Synopsis: the You Bet! reference is obvious and natural, the Moment of Truth reference... not so much)
- 14:18, 25 June 2022 (hist) (diff) Go 8 Bit (→Synopsis: aren't those meant to be pixels rather than cubes?)
- 14:02, 25 June 2022 (hist) (diff) Mousetrap (→Pictures: italicised the caption)
