    Watched it regularly. Loved (and still love) the theme tune. Watched it recently too and just not the same without Bob.

    Was Treasure Hunt in the 90's? Following Anneka Rices arse as she jumped out of the chopper, sure you couldn't go wrong with it.

    Sick days meant Supermarket Sweep. :) Loads of others.

    Wish they would have continued our very own, Know Your Sport. Used to watch it with my Dad but would roll eye when they had Jimmy Magee segment *yawn*.

    I think it was 80s/90s.

    Show call Wanted which was based in the UK. And the contestant had to remain in a phonebox in a specified area for the duration of the show, whilst people were out hunting for them.

    Used to love it!

    Used to run home from school to watch it eating homemade pancakes with rhubarb jam, Willie G was a legend.

    It's made a comeback with Sandi Tosqvig, questions still as hard as ever, it's great.

    Going for gold still the best theme tune though

    The heat is on, the time is right. . . .

    new version was way too long though with too much yapping- get on with it!!

    Who Wants To Be A Millionaire was an absolutely brilliant quiz show in its day.

    Winning Streak, still looks like it's produced in the 90's, but it was good back then.
