It’s the ZX Spectrum’s 30th birthday! And what better way to celebrate than a link to one of the first weekend specials Bother’s Bar did, where we have a look at Spectrum gameshow conversions.
Don’t forget, we have almost ten years of feature content on the Specials Board if you fancy a browse.
Here you go, a little feature on The Hub game Scrabble Showdown.
Olly Murs is on Celebrity Deal or No Deal this evening at 6:25pm on C4.
Don’t forget we are playing a free and fun game of 5 Card Draw tonight (you know, like in films) at 8pm. You can join us, but don’t forget to register first.
It’s the The Voice battle rounds this weekend! Oh and Chris O Dowd and Dawn Porter are on the The Million Pound Drop finale this evening.
Right that’s the latest news covered, I’ve been a bit content light recently so I’m going to to do a small feature tomorrow. It was going to be tonight, but I’ve been working and I am knackered.
Don’t forget also tomorrow it is the 5 Card Draw round of Mix It Up Real Good at 8pm. Free to enter and open to all. Don’t miss it!
For whatever reason, celebrity and friend of the Bar Tom Scott has been doing gameshows with bees in them.
US television legend Dick Clark has passed away at the age of 82.

A lot of people commenting on the end of Ceefax today (even though it isn’t, there’s still some analogue ‘oop North’, as people putting on a Northern accent are wont to say). Can’t say I’m that bothered, I was always an ITV/C4 Teletext sort of guy in the same way I’ve always been a commercial telly sort of person. And if those were the pages you missed, we reviewed the Bamboozle app a while ago.
In other news, can anyone remember which year harmless popular sitcom My Family played Howie Mandel’s White Elephant on one of their Christmas Specials? I would probably put a clip up if I can find it.
