BBC 4 21.25. I was delighted to watch this tonight - one of my favourite programmes of the 1970s with Joyce Grenfell, Robin Ray and Richard Baker.

Its been wonderful - still going on, dummy keyboard round - just finishing.
That was 'proper' TV - I never missed 'Call My Bluff' either. I have to admit that I was in love with Frank Muir from the age of 9 when he and Denis Norden battled it out in 'My Word' - I was home for lunch from Juniorschool and if I stood at the door, ready, I could just hearthe punch lines to the stories before I bust a gut sprinting up to school in order to get there for 1.00p.m. and registration.
