What was the name of this website?

This thought came into my head late at night and now I can't stop thinking about it. There used to be a website a few years ago where you could play Flash games based on British gameshows. I'm sure Bullseye was one of them and it blended gameplay with footage from real episodes. You'd also interact with the "ad breaks" with tedious tasks like following the path of a Strepsils or something. I can't think of much more to explain what it was to jog people's memories but it's really bugging me that I can't remember the name of the website, even though it's most likely long dead. Any idea?

Does anyone know why WeDigTV was shut down?

Looks like it vanished in 2012 for some reason, I can only presume it either ran out of money or the respective copyright holders got a bit upset and sent in the lawyers.

Some videos of the gameplay are archived on YouTube:


Some half-arsed "trailer" for the service:

I was always under the impression the games were licensed correctly. Hence that ‘Granada Ventures’ front cap.

They even got Bob Holness in to voice some of the Blockbusters stuff.
