STOUT COUPLING of the great CLIVE DOIG and local newsreader made good ROB CURLING, involving a sort of wet, three-way, 3D Othello thing (the rules matter not, except that the computerised counters were “turned about” (get it?) after a word with missing letters question was solved). Theme sounded like mid-’80s Radiophonic Workshop doing Herbie Hancock, and the title sequence usefully showed you all the words that could be made out of the show’s title. Surprisingly resilient; may still be on somewhere. Oh yeah, and the studio floor was made of water. Yes, you read that right.

All I remember about this is Rob Curling’s odd looking facial features. It was as though his plasticine-made face had been remoulded to make his chin and mouth area wonky-looking and slanted. Doesn’t he now present sport headlines on ‘Sky News’?
