Happy 80th, Gordon!

By | June 10, 2022

A second TV legend turns 80 this week! Today it’s the turn of journalist, newsreader and quiz show host Gordon Burns! Host of the bona fide top-five-of-all-time gameshow The Krypton Factor for the best part of twenty years, Burns also hosted Password and a few communication-based games in the mid nineties, A Word in Your Ear and Relatively Speaking. Unfortunately there aren’t any episodes of Relatively Speaking and its virtual reality-based endgame on Youtube, but here’s an episode of A Word In Your Ear which was basically the same thing but earlier and with celebrities anyway.

So that’s a Fred, a Gordon, are there any gameshow Ginos having an 80th birthday this week? We might get a road trip commission out of ITV.
