Blockbusters 1991 Episode Part 1

Remember when I said that I felt that you could never have enough of Blockbusters? Well the good news is that now I am able to bring you another episode of that great game show. It was recorded in November 1991. You host is of course none other than Bob Holness. Thanks to benriggers for sending me this episode.

I can't explain why, but I just now fancied watching Blockbusters again for the first time in years, then found this. Many thanks for posting this video!

[@javiergomez9970]

I don't remember seeing Blockbusters on a Saturday lunchtime, I always saw on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday evenings

[@RobinCarmody]

It wasn't shown at this time in most regions, but TVS showed it at 11.30 am on Saturdays for a while - between Motormouth etc. and The Chart Show - in addition to the weekday evening transmissions, as a means of catching up because they'd fallen behind most other regions.

We are NEVER doing Rockbusters again

[@robertoliver4304]

Since the year is 2019, it should called Blockbusting, the all new blockbuster!

[@michaelbond7652]

STILL using the old music?! AND IN 1991.

[@cultthrone1469]

I wonder if Mark got his a levels in 3 languages and become an interpreter lol

[@agholkar]

I was just wondering that lol

I'll have a T please Bob

[@robertoliver4304]

P.S. it should be a 3 player game, the player will represent a color, the shapes made into a square, a 5x10, they will get a surprise letters, add wild cards and a cash prize.

[@lojosol]

Sounds like a terrible concept. Blockbusters is fun with the whole two heads are better than one theme, and using the hexagons guarantees that each game will never result in a tie, there will always be a winning connection. If you use squares, there is a way where the game can be tied.
