Concentration series 1 episode 2 TVS Production 1988

I was bummed that she didn't take the Salmon. I wondered what would have happened since there would have been no more room on the prize rack. This host did a sensational job I thought, kept the game moving along. Alex Trebek hosted our version here in the States from 1987-1991 and he was, in my opinion, a bit too chatty at times. I even recall one contestant saying she was having trouble concentrating because he kept talking so darn much. This guy kept the game flowing, and even when he made a few comments, he kept them short and brief. Very enjoyable watch, thank you for this upload.

Debbie surely deserved her holiday. She did extremely well in the game.

Excellent performance by Debbie! Winning all 3 rounds, 20 prizes and the holiday of a lifetime! Well done to Debbie!!

Javier Gomez Way to go, spoiling it for people who haven't seen it!

Joel LafargueI'm happy I didn't read the comments until after.

If they revive Concentration, it will be in primetime with Sony (Barry & Enright years) and Fremantle Media (When Goodson-Todman took over) co-producing with Universal Television.

If Concentration match up with Catchphrase, instead of a rebus, and nine squares in bonus, the catchphrase will cover with 25 squares and getting 2 squares to start off. If I was in Concentration and my favorite catchphrase (not the opening) is there, one prize and that's it (get wild card and any number)!

It's fascinating to see this, yet maddening how he always says, "That's concentration!" after explaining a rebus. It's like he has no concept of the game.

As great as some American game shows are, I'm getting to like some of these British ones, particularly some that were popular in America first, and because Canada has to share a border with them, but that's another story. It's good that this version of Concentration lasted two years, but the most recent American one lasted four, from 1987-1991. I don't know which one I like better.

The theme sounds like a Ed Welch composition.

[@bpage4132]

You`re absolutely right,and what a great theme throughout the series.

[@briabba123]

I just wish they had showed what was won and said the amount that the prizes are worth

[@jakamneziak]

so 80's........the presenter could not have been more insincere if he tried but the show as a aconcept I think works well. Why not reboot this as a show instead of massacring the crystal maze?
