      As they filmed multiple episodes in a day the audience that were "so much better then last weeks" was exactly the same as the previous shows !

    I was in the gallery for this on a trainee vision mixer course. The atmosphere was electric and Bruce wanted to know every single possibility of what could go wrong with the game. The guy who created the show in the USA was on hand all the time.

      I take it they didn't do any re-takes considering Bruce's mistakes! Was it just too expensive or recorded as live?

      @@TheMarkos1982 It seems to me the fluffs were part of the charm, added to the atmosphere and sparkle in the interaction with the audience and contestants, so they left them in. Overzealous editing is what often spoils modern gameshows.

    Love the first mix of the theme with the ambient synth psychedelic sustained chords at 00:42. It was proper 1980.

    The very first PYCR. This became one of THE GREAT English game shows. With the King at the helm, it got slick, exciting, compulsive, catch-phrase heavy, suspensful and funny. Brucie's best work, in my view was on Bruce's Price Is Right - until David Liddiment's arrival, the bastard.
    God bless ya' Brucie. You were a bonus

    As an American, I didnt become aware of Brucie until I saw the 2nd episode of HIGNFY he did. Knowing me and game shows as a kid, had I grown up in the UK, he would have become my spirit animal.

      Bruce Forsyth did try to crack the American market as a game show host and even appeared in an episode of Magnum PI playing himself as the game show host where Rick was one of the contestants.

    Funny how the score machines were on the blink for the studio recording, odd timing that they settled just as the lights went up, and then were switched off, till some points were scored. 'What do points make? Prizes!' Thanks for uploading.
