Wendy richard but i know she has had health problems--Tony Slattery
can be very funny/Juilan cleary is just a peach/Shelia Hancock can
certainly hold her own/

being 'mad' at tony Slattery and saying" I'll see you in the carpark
later"-(one of tony's first shows)- this is still my allround
favorite episode

wit/humor/fun and intelligence of the panelist-something we here in

Sigh someday-- but i have seen Paul Merton preform at the London
comedy store a few yrs back.

I have hosted and played the game several times at a local British
Media convention and a local Sci Fic convention- usually I am
the "chairman' but my friends who help me present the game usually
make me play-never get more than about 30 seconds though-- a friend
rigged up some light panels and a tap lights for the players to use-
he says he is working on a buzzer for it too. the players press the
tap light and the light panel in front of them lights up.
