That was TV at its best, loved the opening titles using early 3D graphics, plus Mike Moran's futuristic synth led theme tune. Thanks Anton. Fridays were must see days in 1978.
Realised almost immediately that the Observation round was one of the Poirot films, although at first I had thought it was a clip from Evil Under The Sun, which would have been impossible as it wasn't made until a few years later.
Hi, Anton. This is Brian Inman sending you a message. Do you have any more Where in time is Carmen Sandiego episodes from seasons 1 and 2 like maybe Where in time is Carmen Sandiego season 2 episode 45, the one when the sinister Sir Vile swipes a Samurai’s sword from 17th century Japan?
The contestants were handicapped by age and gender, so women went before the men and older players went before the younger ones. Starting in 1988 only head start for the women was retained.
@@antonspivack3928 This how they done it from 1978-87 as a example here I will use Boris Johnson, Liz Truss, Lewis Hamilton and Max Verstappen Liz Truss 47 would start first as a woman, Boris Johnson 58 as the oldest man would start second, Lewis Hamilton 37 would start third and Max Verstappen 24 would start last as the youngest
@@antonspivack3928 Actually I made it up a as a example of how they did it from 1978-87 and just used the PM and Foreign Secretary and Hamilton and Verstappen as a example of how they did the starts in order of sex/gender and age
Oh yes! I've seen very strong players on University Challenge of gender changes, how would they be handicapped in the race without a rumpus developing?
i bet you're wondering why Gordon sits so far away from the contestants, it's because if Gordon farts, then the contestants won't be able to smell it.@@davidgoodliff4486

That mental agility round was insane.
When it was on Fridays 1978-79 7pm meant it was the first programme on LWT

The beginning of the latest song from Simple Minds titled “Act Of Love” sounds very similar to the theme tune from these early Krypton Factor shows
the friar nearly made the comeback ballsy play
