Poll of the Year 2017 - It's coming
The UKGameshows.com/Bother's Bar Poll of the Year 2017 is coming and the ballot boxes open on January 2nd, so get your thinking caps on!
The 100 Most Popular Game Shows
One question you almost certainly haven't been asking yourself is "What are the 100 most popular articles on this site?". Well, tough, because we have and you can see the result of our Greatest Game Shows - it lists stalwarts like The Crystal Maze and Interceptor to surprises such as Kate Thornton's Dishes. Who knew?
While UKGameshows.com is (even if we say so ourselves) the most comprehensive guide to the genre anywhere on - or off - the web, with over 2100 programmes already in our database it is inevitable that even we're stumped sometimes. So we're asking for your help. A number of our "most wanted" shows are now listed here and a team of volunteers is standing by, waiting to add your contributions to our compendium of game show knowledge. Go on, help us out. It's what Mumsy would want.

Game show news
The death has been announced of Keith Chegwin (a.k.a. - Cheggers) at the age of 60. His most memorable game show hosting roles include Cheggers Plays Pop, Sky Star Search and It's a Knockout.
The European Broadcasting Union has announced that 43 entries will compete in the 2018 Eurovision Song Contest in Lisbon, Portgual after the country claimed their very first victory in 53 years of entering the contest. Russia will return after a one year absence. The logo and slogan for next year's contest were also revealed. (This entry was revised on 17 November after Macedonia was allowed to enter.)
The death has been announced of William G. Stewart. He produced many quiz shows including Family Fortunes and The Price is Right but was perhaps better known as the first fronter of Fifteen-to-One.
The BBC has recommissioned Pointless for another 204 episodes, comprising 165 daytime episodes and 39 primetime celebrity episodes. The recommission means Pointless will still air new episodes on its 10th anniversary in 2019.
The death has been announced of Bruce Forsyth at the age of 89. A TV regular for more than half a century, his many popular game shows included The Generation Game, Play Your Cards Right, The Price is Right and Strictly Come Dancing.
