ReviewThis UK Gameshow is originally based on a US gameshow of the same name,and came to our TV screens in 1975-85,and produced for Anglia Television.Peter Fenn wrote the theme tune for Gambit [as well as the theme tune for Sale Of The Century],and he composed two different themes for the show.In 1975-80,first did this in a Tijuana Style like Herb Alpert,and in 1981-85,the same tune but in a style of Sale Of The Century,and not to mention,we see him in person playing a Hammond Organ in Part Two in the Music Question segment. The voiceover for this show in the 1975-85 era is John Benson [also did for Sale Of The Century].
ReviewThis series is created by Rick Rosner [also created another TV series before 240-Robert called CHiPs for MGM TV].I do remember the TV series very well,and used to be screened on Saturday Nights at 7:15 p.m. in the London Area.Mike Post and Pete Carpenter [who composed the theme tunes such as The Rockford Files,The A-Team,Knight Rider,etc.] also wrote this original theme tune.This show is produced by Rosner Television in association with Filmways Television
Rated 10/10David White [from the US TV comedy series Bewitched] played the part of J.Jonah Jameson in the pilot story before Robert F Simon got a permanent role and appeared in 29 episodes and I remember the series and screened on Friday nights at 7 p.m.in the London Area.
Rated 10/10I remember this show,when screened on Saturday and Sunday mornings in the London area at 9:30 a.m.in the late 70`s and early 1980`s,and still my TV favourite of all time,especially I like the theme tune as well as the character voices. Frank Welker who voiced Fangface,is best remembered voicing Fred in the Scooby Doo Series.
Rated 10/10This TV series first shown in 1972-73,and 26 episodes were made and ran for 25-30 minutes as far as I can remember.First screened in the London area on Sunday afternoons at 1:30 p.m,and repeated again on Friday nights at 7:00 p.m, in 1974-75 and Saturday afternoons at 12;00 p.m in 1976. This is one of my favourite TV programme of all,because I like the main theme tune,and it is written by John Barry,best remembered composing for Bond films amongst others,and not to mention The Persuaders,also another ITC series and ran for 24 episodes.Also,the series launched the careers of famous celebrities such as Stephanie Beacham,John Savident and not to mention Ben Kingsley[before he became famous in the 1982 film Gandhi].Even the late Burt Kwouk appeared in 2 episodes and not to mention the late Roy Kinnear who work in the scrapyard in the Episode called `Skeleton in the Cupboard`,and also filmed in various countries like France as well as England.
