I'm so sorry for your loss Ellie. Let me say, this episode of the Generation Game is the one that I most keenly remember all these years later because of your husband. He was an absolute star in this. As others have said, Saturday night entertainment back then was worth staying in for with entertainers like Bruce and Noel Edmonds, but the popularity of the shows was due in no small part to people like your husband.

One of my favourite things about the GG was when things went "wrong" - eg in this case the contestant doors opening by accident LOL and Bruce's over-reaction. And with every panto final sketch there would always be a line that the contestant would read incorrectly haha so simple but just harmless fun, I miss it!

Yes I thought davidson ruined it. I remember he stood in for Bruce for one show which worked well, but once he took over the show it was a stinker. And the more recent attempt to revive with Mel and Sue was a disaster.

Hello from England The GENERATION GAME -twice round with BRUCIE in the 70's and the 90's Such an ICONIC part of the BBC line up on Saturday nights. I remember watching this the first time round in 1991. Watching it again has made me laugh so much again its bought me to tears. I haven't laughed so much since before the pandemic.
