Host
Floella Benjamin (1984 only), Clive Webb, John Gorman, Cheryl Baker, Carrie Gray (now Carrie Grant)
Broadcast
Tyne Tees for ITV, 10 April 1984 to 1989
Synopsis
Anarchic kids show. Two teams of kids throw lots of gunge around for twenty five minutes, jeered on by celebrities and (we think) ex-stars of Tiswas. Games included 'Down The Drain', 'Nellyball', 'Hat Catchers' and 'Teach 'em a lesson'
According to the TV Times, it was 'Britain's messiest game show'. We'll think about that.

Theme music
The theme tune to How Dare You was a re-recorded version of Five Star's Stay Out of My Life and appeared as a B-Side on their #9 hit in 1987. It was called just How Dare You and both tracks were written by lead singer Denise (Deniece) Pearson.
