Challenge TV launched on Freeview!

Have... have they actually *shortened* the Family Fortunes intro?

Now showing.. 'Nothing In It To Win It'.

I know I've said it before, but THIS? A chopped up, badly edited (to remove all Lottery references) show of all the gameshows in the history of televisual earth?!

Yes.
And chopped a portion of the introduction out.
One episode tonight even chopped out the "this is the car the families could win tonight" voiceover.

I dare say the ultimate aim is to get to "Hello, welcome to Family Fortunes, I'm Les Dennis, thank you, goodnight".

Does this not prove there badly needing money? if there trying to get even more adverts in the slot. I still think there should go back to the old way of doing things. BBC show get 40mins while the ITV show get 30 but with no cuts in either.

Just wondering do Challenge ever repeat the last serieses of:
Family Fortunes (Andy Collins 2002)
Wheel Of Fortune (Paul Goody, Terry Seymour 2001)
Catchpharse (Mark Curry 2002)

Badly needing money? They're owned by Sky. They're just trying to milk every penny possible.

It's Paul Hendy , not Goody.

As far as I'm aware they haven't shown any of the above, and hopefull they'll never show any of the above.

Whoops sorry! Thanks for correcting me! Quite where I got Goody from..

I was wondering because after seeing clips of the first 2 of Youtube, they looked rather bad (£1000 prize on FF?)

It's usually wins Saturday night when it's on, there is a reason why it's the longest running Lottery show.

They were all relegated to daytime TV filler programmes, which is primarily why the jackpot on Family Fortunes fell through the floor.
