All this talk about various different shows, mainly kids shows, set me thinking and now the one particular kids show I'm thinking of I can't remember the title for and it's driving me mad ... So ...

Does ANYONE remember a kids TV show (shown weekdays) which was basically a gigantic Snakes & Ladders board with celebs and kids running all over the place inside it, hosted by Bob Carolgees and I think either Tracey Ullman or Toyah Wilcox and shot live from Alton Towers? This was in the 1980's. (I would guess around 1984 - ish).

Anyone ....??? Confused

I'VE GOT IT!! Big Grin (Don't worry it's not catching! LOL)

The programme was called 'Hold Tight' and now I come to think about it, I can 'hear' this being shouted from the audience.

Good old 'Ask Jeeves'!! Big Grin Cool Wink

Bob Carolgees last seen doing a TV ad for Cash Generators with Spit The Dog. They wouldn't buy the dog being the catchy slogan. I believe he did it because he's a friend of one of the company directors.
