- (diff) (hist) . . The Price is Right; 23:27 . . (-79) . . Deselmes (Talk | contribs) (→Theme music: Lawrence Oakley did the full score for Joe's version (hence his plain "Music" credit). Nothing imported from the other side of the Atlantic this time - not even the "losing horns")
- (diff) (hist) . . The Price is Right; 23:11 . . (+3) . . Deselmes (Talk | contribs) (→Theme music: forgot that Bob's version didn't air in just *one* calendar year... :))
- (diff) (hist) . . The Price is Right; 23:09 . . (+111) . . Deselmes (Talk | contribs) (After being absent in '95, the "losing horns" returned in '96. As for the rest of the BPIR score, I'm thinking Kevin Kitchen - some of his compositions for Supermarket Sweep sound *very* similar)
- (diff) (hist) . . The Price is Right; 22:41 . . (+94) . . Deselmes (Talk | contribs) (→Theme music: the sax arrangement used on Bruce's version also came over from Stateside: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KWmG68kv8Tc&ab_channel=markyyy)
- (diff) (hist) . . The Price is Right; 22:29 . . (+190) . . Deselmes (Talk | contribs) (At least two Bob Warman eps on YouTube, and from them we learn that not only was the original American theme used here, but the "come on down" music and "losing horns" came over from Stateside too :))
- (diff) (hist) . . Humdingers; 21:50 . . (+34) . . Deselmes (Talk | contribs) (If I may be pedantic and say that this show and Who's Bluffing Who? appeared in the *late spring* of '91. Summer technically starts on 21 June, and kids aren't out of school until late July... ;))
- (diff) (hist) . . Who's Bluffing Who?; 21:43 . . (+34) . . Deselmes (Talk | contribs) (If I may be pedantic and say that this show and Humdingers appeared in the *late spring* of 1991. After all, 21 June is the first day of summer and kids stay in school for another month afterwards ;))
- (diff) (hist) . . Sky Star Search; 21:24 . . (-1) . . Deselmes (Talk | contribs) (→Synopsis: just spotted a third 'i' in "hilarious" :))
- (diff) (hist) . . Sky Star Search; 21:23 . . (-10) . . Deselmes (Talk | contribs) (→Synopsis: basically made the first paragraph flow better, removing the superfluous "there was", and also the parentheses around "with Peter Marshall" since there are none around "with Bob Warman")
- (diff) (hist) . . Winner Takes All; 21:08 . . (+2) . . Deselmes (Talk | contribs) ("Michael Dixon's £7455 in 1986 remained the record cash prize for over a decade." Actually, only eight years later Wheel of Fortune contestants were winning £10,000 for solving the final puzzle ;))
- (diff) (hist) . . Winner Takes All; 21:04 . . (+2) . . Deselmes (Talk | contribs) ("The set of Winner Takes All. The contestants indicated their "bet" via the lights in front of their desks." That's Geoffrey and Vicky in the middle, isn't it? So, specifically, the late '80s set)

- (diff) (hist) . . Catchphrase; 18:49 . . (+88) . . Deselmes (Talk | contribs) (→Theme music: on the other hand, the present theme *is* the Welch theme, or rather a rave arrangement thereof - hence Welch *does* get a credit)
- (diff) (hist) . . Catchphrase; 18:42 . . (-39) . . Deselmes (Talk | contribs) (→Theme music: and of course, Etchell himself danced it up for the Weir and Curry eras)
- (diff) (hist) . . Catchphrase; 18:41 . . (+97) . . Deselmes (Talk | contribs) (Etchell's theme was clearly based on Welch's, yet there was no need to give Welch a credit because it was different enough. Might be worth pointing this out - but feel perfectly free to disagree :))
- (diff) (hist) . . Midas Touch; 18:27 . . (+62) . . Deselmes (Talk | contribs) (→Trivia: a Central show, in the mid '90s - so it couldn't have been made anywhere other than Nottingham, right? ;) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=35GU5P3bvuU&ab_channel=MisterDoc)
- (diff) (hist) . . Sabotage; 18:18 . . (+34) . . Deselmes (Talk | contribs) (...and that this was *yet another* Action Time show for which Simon Etchell composed the music :))
- (diff) (hist) . . Sabotage; 18:16 . . (+33) . . Deselmes (Talk | contribs) (Did you watch this clip too, Gareth? :) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SpugZdLjR8U&ab_channel=61citystars We can also see that Messrs Leahy and O'Connor were exec producers as well as the creators...)
