Talking Telephone Numbers
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Talking Telephone Numbers was an extraordinarily short-lived Australian game-variety show. The show ran for 60 minutes on Friday evenings at 7:30.
The show consisted of general variety entertainment, with six small games involved. The result of each of these games would be to produce a number between 0 and 9 - the ways that numbers were found changed from week to week, and were either random, or based upon some entertaining concept. At the end of the show, once six numbers were achieved, the lines were opened to the public, and anybody whose phone numbered ended with the same six numbers as the ones drawn during the episode (in any order) had a chance at winning a cash prize.
The show rated terribly and was removed after only three weeks.
A British version produced by Celador and Carlton Television aired on ITV in the 1990s, hosted by Phillip Schofield and Emma Forbes, then later Claudia Winkleman.[1]
