Game For A Quiz: Time

We've all got a favourite game show. Like the BBC point based one hosted by the lad with the ears or its ITV rival in which a chaser chases some contestants in a chase...I forget the title. (Speed 2?)  But which is the BEST quiz or game show ever? Well, that's what Ben Baker and Christine Coulson are hoping to find out in this new series pitting two examples of the genre against each other.    In this first episode both put forth a mighty example of shows that used time in an interesting way with Christine's choice of Paul Daniels' multiple choice classic "Every Second Counts" and Ben going with the lesser known daytime series "1000 Heartbeats". The programmes will be put through their paces on the things that truly matter like host, set, interactivity, prizes and, most important of all, if you can sing the name of the show to the theme tune... -------------------------- We watched two specific episodes to review and if you want to see them too, you can watch "Every Second Counts" (10th May 1986) here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C1Xcq272trg  Whilst the first episode of "1000 Heartbeats" is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ceMEQCym-lM   .
