The host everyone treated like family

A BBC game show

The game's question

One clue at a time, aloud, like the prizes going past on the belt – then decide together.

Some faces on the telly felt like part of the family. From 1971, on the BBC, ‘The Generation Game’ ended with a conveyor belt: the prizes went past one by one, and the contestant had to remember as many as possible. True or not true: Bruce Forsyth was the presenter of ‘The Generation Game’.

  • True
  • Not true
  • It was only on the radio
Need a hint?

Bruce: try the first name out loud, and see whose face comes back with it.

See the answer

Answer: True – Bruce Forsyth and his conveyor belt of prizes, on the BBC from 1971.

Why this game : Calling out the prizes from the sofa, all together: a game the whole family played along with.
