Incidentally, the Gascoine/Goddard/Sewell/Nedwell episode ended with the male member of the public on the panel - a fashion designer named Leslie Dean - being given The Poseidon Adventure, but giving a rather bizarre mime by pointing at himself, indicating it was two words and doing the “name” head touching thing. When performing the word "as", Eve Ferret even went as far as doing the "A" gesture then drawing out an "S" which seems very unsporting indeed. It's nice that Parkinson does appear more engaged with the game than Aspel who seemed to just watch with amused detachment, but he's now giving far too much assistance to the point that the teams barely have to work to put things together.

Eight episodes were not included due to the appearances of three celebrities convicted of sexual abuse offences under Operation Yewtree in the 2010s. There's the skyward look, the arms thrown up in resignation, and then the walk to her spot, eyes wide and looking shell shocked.

Many familiar faces - Roy Kinnear, Jim Davidson, Adrienne Posta, Suzanne Dando - are back for this version.

As time goes on, it gets slicker with some very mid-1980s pastel shades and increasingly hi-tech captions. The original host was Michael Aspel from 1979 to 1984, followed by Michael Parkinson from 1984 to 1992.

On one infamous edition of the programme, the male non-celebrity was handed the title he had to mime on a card by host Michael Aspel, but, rather than read the title, he read the wrong side of the card, on which his name was printed. The team just seemed less experienced overall than Liza's team (which was 75% old hands) and the male guests missed a lot of the simple shorthands given to them by Lionel during his turn. Network has compiled an astonishing set that brings together most of the episodes of Michael Aspel’s run.

This Company will not accept any responsibility for any loss or damage in whatever manner, howsoever caused, resulting from your disclosure to third parties of personal information.Eartha Kitt has the highest international profile of anyone featured on the daytime series - and quite possibly outdoes the big names in the evening version in terms of recognisability. I even spotted Mary, while trying to work out another female player's mime, glancing at him rather than the person doing the mime. Yet here she is on Give Us A Clue, alongside Una Stubbs and Angela Douglas, studiously watching John Inman giving us The Wayward Wind in the quiet hope of stealing a point from the boys' team.

The celebrities have been a wonderful array of familiar faces - from Rainbow’s Geoffrey Hayes to Julia McKenzie. Seated on the other side of Liza was Jill Gascoine, best known at the time for The Onedin Line ( The Gentle Touch would begin the following year, and it’s incredible the difference a hairstyle makes. I've just watched the immortal episode in which Roy Kinnear's I Can't See My Little Willy was followed immediately by Barbara Windsor's Kisses On The Bottom. Una Stubbs and Lionel Blair captain two teams of celebrities in this light-hearted battle of the sexes!

The shows on this set feature a galaxy of celebrities, comedians and actors, including: Kenneth Williams, Diana Dors, Richard O’Sullivan, Barbara Windsor, Robin Askwith, David Jason, Yootha Joyce, Mollie Sugden, Paula Wilcox, Spike Milligan, Russ Abbot, Warren Mitchell, Kenny Everett, June Whitfield, Terry Scott, Dick Emery, Maureen Lipman, Beryl Reid, Rodney Bewes, Faith Brown, Paul Eddington, John Inman, Dudley Moore, Victoria Wood, all three Goodies and two Doctors Who! Many of the newer players seem far less au fait with some of the shorthands than one would expect, often mixing them up to the point of confusion. It actually turned out to be a favourite episode overall, with Chris Biggins's turns including The Ideal Gnome Exhibition and Rumpelstiltskin.
