Far better than the shite we have on TV these days. Love Kenny & Cleo.

Blimey, I loved this back in the day, been looking for it on KZbin for ages! Thanks for uploading! Probably the strangest and most irreverent game show the BBC ever put out, and informative at the same time! Great stuff.

I remember watching this back then. Funny how you forget programmes completely and all of a sudden come across them somehow and it all comes back to you... RIP Kenny.

A collection of over 500 lamps was the work of Bill Carlton, a lighting engineer from Woodhouse Park in Manchester who spent over 30 years working for Philips Electrical. During this time he worked on lighting projects for Salisbury Cathedral, Westminster Abbey and Bath Abbey as well as making an appearance on this BBC 1988 TV show Brainstorm to explain the development of lighting. Many of the light bulbs amassed by Mr Carlton were displayed during his career at the Science Museum and the Institute of Engineering and Technology. They were bought by a private collector on his demise.Ian

I never knew Kenny Everett hosted a quiz show before. I don't remember this programme at all. It wasn't till I wanted to read about him yesterday, that I found out about Brainstorm and wanted to see if there was any videos on this and here I am watching this. I wish he was still around today. He would have kept this world a fun place to live in. He died way too young.

This wasn't the only quiz that Kenny hosted, in the early 90s he hosted a daytime game show called Gibberish that was made by Celador Productions for the BBC.

[@MrBooojangles]

@@AllenJeremy ah ok. I never knew he did that either, though I was working a lot back then.

Can’t believe this is the only episode used to love watching this thanks for uploading made me feel 13 years old again.

[@SnabbKassa]

I knew parents in this era who were so conservative that they would not let their sons watch this, not out of fear of exposure to innuendo (which they wouldn't have got anyway), but because they really thought watching Kenny's antics would make their sons gay and so they would never get any grandchildren.

I need some one just like good old Kenny to entertain me when I'm down and sad ha ha 😅

[@tomgreen663]

Haven't seen this in decades! Do you have any other episodes?
