	I like to think I'm a Game Show Expert, but after taking this quiz I have a lot of doubts. I thought the way Countdown was scrambled made it very easy to unscramble.

	I have to admit, I have never heard of "Only Connect", "The Krypton Factor", "Lingo", "Question of Sport", "Countdown", or "Golden Balls". What network are these shows on?

	yay for including 'The Krypton Factor'

	MelanieH:	Jan 25th, 2011 at 09:05 GMT	9 points
	Never heard of Lingo but got it with a lucky guess. And yay for British shows being included!

	noticeperiod:	Jan 25th, 2011 at 12:56 GMT	8 points
	kudos for having only connect!!

	@NY_MOB: The Krypton Factor, Question of Sport and Countdown are UK shows. I haven't heard of the rest either.

	i managed to get only connect even though i have never heard of it haha, and i can't believe i didn't get lingo! I watch it just about every day.. i tried login for that.. never heard of supermarket sweep or golden balls and the others are UK games so I wasn't surprised I didnt get them

	Man! I thought you were going for the very short-lived game show Robyn Byrd hosted in the eighties called "Dongle Balls." Shucks.

	Supermarket Sweep is so underrated. I loved that show!

	finesse:	Jan 25th, 2011 at 18:18 GMT	7 points
	nice balance of UK and US... and there was a decent chance of guessing the ones not from your country. Good job

	oldkent:	Jan 25th, 2011 at 20:28 GMT	2 points
	I remember watching the New Zealand version of the Krypton Factor. Classic!

	FritztheSpritz:	Jan 25th, 2011 at 21:06 GMT	2 points
	Nice quiz! I'd quite like someone to invent a game show called 'gloin' though!

	noangel86:	Jan 25th, 2011 at 22:33 GMT	1 point
	Awesome quiz! Loving the inclusion of Only Connect, and some of the really cheesy old ones which make me cringe at the memories!

	FoxyRhino:	Jan 25th, 2011 at 22:36 GMT	2 points
	Kudos for including Only Connect. For anyone not in the UK, it's the same level of difficulty as University Challenge. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Only_Connect

	Lingo is a fun game show.

Comment below threshold: show it

	jajison:	Jan 26th, 2011 at 00:43 GMT	2 points
	I've never heard of Krypton Factor but just guessed it by thinking of random words haha.

	jaho:	Jan 26th, 2011 at 01:02 GMT	2 points
	Five globes for having Press Your Luck!

	yossarian74:	Jan 26th, 2011 at 01:27 GMT	2 points
	Only Connect! My favourite show. Truly never thought I'd see that surface on Sporcle. Kudos :o)

	I LOVED supermarket sweep!

	@mickie123able: I'm not sure what that rant was all about but it was pretty funny. I'm still laughing out loud as I'm typing this.

	Thanks for all the comments everybody, glad you enjoyed the quiz, @mickie123able YOU ARE MENTAL!! see a therapist ;D

	These are all shows that have at one point had their own UK version, with the exception of Family Feud, which is called Family Fortunes across the pond.

	Hadn't heard of "Press your luck", "Cash Cab" or "Lingo", but may not have been watching the telly at the right time or in the right country. Auditioned for "Only Connect" this year, but didn't get through; there's always next year...

	Only Connect! Whaaaaat a show! Can't believe I didn't get the Weakest Link! I got link, but for some reason my brain didn't connect that to weakest, oh dear xD

	Omegaville:	Apr 17th, 2012 at 03:22 GMT	1 point
	I'm not from UK or US but managed to guess them all. I'm guessing they've all been in the UK in some form or another over the decades.

	quackbock:	Apr 28th, 2012 at 03:18 GMT	2 points
	some i never heard of, all the uk ones, but i guess i'm just good at unscrambling. love supermarket sweep and cash cab. whenever my sis and i go to new york she yells cash cab at all the taxi cabs lol.

	Golden Balls ?

	Buzzers:	May 18th, 2012 at 14:25 GMT	1 point
	golden balls is a UK gameshow with Jasper carrot as the presentre where the aim of the game is to bin bad balls, and carry high scoring cash balls into the final.
