I was trying to think of a show I'd seen as a child where the song Hit The Road Jack was sung as some guy was catapulted backwards and I've finally found it! Couldn't hear it without thinking of that! 😂

The prizes are rubbish.

[@andrewschroy6368]

Ah, back when the IBA was overly-sensitive about prize limits (no more than £6,000 cash and prizes total until 1994) over in jolly old England... :D

[@davidtownson1476]

They were deliberately rubbish, even more than usual!
