Host

Various, including David Hamilton, Jon Hammond

Broadcast

L!VE TV, mid-1990s

Synopsis

Another brilliantly simple concept from the folks who brought you Topless Darts. In the studio is a box. Viewers phone in, ask three yes/no questions, and then guess what's in the box. If they get it right, they win it. Or possibly win something else, we're not entirely sure.

Highbrow, by L!VE TV's standards.

Key moments

The occasion, later shown on It'll Be Alright on the Night, when Jon Hammond came up against a caller who simply couldn't grasp how the game worked. Told to ask yes/no questions to work out what was in the box, his first question was "How old are my children?" and it went downhill from there.

Jon Hammond has no idea what's about to hit him.
