At the time this was made, the maximum prize on any British game show was limited to something which would not change anybodies lifestyle significantly (so at the most about £6000). This is why it was usually something like a car or a dining suite What isn't generally well known is on a show like this, you could actually refuse the star prize after the show and take the value of it for a cash equivalent. In the US, you would have to declare the value of the prize on your income tax return and pay tax on it !!!

Okay now I have a question so someone help me out here In the story Bowen tells in the video no one (including the bad luck Belfast crew) wanted to take the gamble but Bowen said "we can't transmit that" in his story so he and the producer go chasing after the two men to get them to take it. They win the gamble but because one of them dropped an F Bomb during the ending they couldn't transmit it. I guess my question is if they couldn't transmit that (even before the F Bomb) how did this episode (and another one I saw where no one took the gamble) get transmitted? Someone help me cos i feel like there is something I am genuinely missing

@@jrgboy Joshua's point is that in a routine that Jim does about Builseye (which can be found elsewhere on youtube) Jim appears to be saying that the producers *would not allow* there to be a show where no-one took the gamble, and yet here is the very thing happening even though allegedly it wasn't allowed to happen. Jim tells the story of a show where all three pairs chose not to gamble, and says that the producer basically harangued and bribed the third pair (who had only won about £20) to gamble so that the show could still be used. The fact that one of the pair dropped an f-bomb and made the ending untransmittable anyway doesn't alter the fact that they were being pushed into gambling in order to have a show they could broadcast, and doesn't alter the fact that Jim is stating that they couldn't transmit a show where no-one gambled. My guess as to the answer is perhaps that the show had different producer's in charge at different times, and that one of them had the particular rule that there had to be a gamble, but that other producer's had allowed a 'no gamble' show at other times in the show's run. My other observation is that the f-bomb may have made the originally recorded ending untransmittable, but it surely wouldn't have been too difficult for the production team to re-record the final moments again by restaging them and having the pair sort of act out their winning moment for the sake of a transmitable take, although granted it may not have looked as authentic that way, and the pair in question may have struggled to understand what was being asked of them and not properly complied. It just seems odd to me that one misplaced word was enough for the TV company to just admit defeat and write that show off completely rather than try to find a fix.
