Trivia
This was one of a series of panel game pilots broadcast in the summer of 1954. The others were: Music, Music, Music!, Ask Your Dad, Change Partners, It's a Mystery, Once Upon a Time, Tall Story Club and Find the Link. At the end of the run, there were further editions of the three most popular; we know that two of them were Find the Link and Tall Story Club (the latter going straight to a series) and we suspect this was the other, but the Radio Times billing fails to identify the show.
