Blockbusters the iconic quiz where players have to win their way across a board of hexagons by answering general knowledge questions. The game is played by three contestants - a team of two versus a single player.
To win the players have to make a connection across the board. The single contestant plays from top to bottom and the pair play from side to side. There are 20 hexagons on the board, each featuring a single letter. The players chose the hexagon they want to play for by asking the host for the letter on it - "I'll have an 'A' please"- and the host then asks a general knowledge question which has an answer starting with that letter.

Bob was such a nice guy, putting the contestants at ease, only gentle teasing if they messed up answers, never humiliating, and never seemed to get tongue tied.

RIP Bob Holness (1928 - 2012).

You are a disgusting old codger! All of England loves today's shows like Love Island which million times better. England hates old decrepit codgers like you.

Interesting hand gestures that the audience is making at the end there. It still baffles me how popular this show became in the UK. Even though it was created in America, their version couldn't hold a candle to this one.

[@aidanlunn7441]

It's a hand jive. Literally "dancing but only using your hands".

[@Batsinthebelltower]

It was the classical english charm , 80s height of western culture, now replaced by diversity and multiculturalism

Did he just call her enema? I can't xD

Not buying Thomas' butter-wouldn't-melt act, although TBF it was nice of him to take one of his mates with him to Greece (rather than a swooning girl)

I wonder what that Hannah Jones is doing now? Probably on Quora trying to type responses before anyone gets in before her.

What was performed at the end of most blockbusters episodes?

[@aidanlunn7441]

No, just the episode transmitted on a Friday (or a Saturday if the series was to be shown six times a week, which some of them were).

[@Batsinthebelltower]

Good old days , if this was today theyd have 1 of every race religion and a token nonbinary person

[@40bpaula]

Sounds like if they did, that would be a problem for you.

Yep, and it’s awful.

​@40bpaula because people are no longer been picked whether it be gameshow, job etc for their ability but their race, sex, gender etc which is actually quite disrespectful to them
