classic ITV Night Time shows

[BenJ]

I spent many nights still awake at 1 or 2am every time I was ill as a nipper and I watched such classics as

The Hitman And Her

America's Top 10

Cue The Music

Quiz Night

The Big E

American Gladiators-the series which spawned Gladiators

and the talk show Donahue

how many more ITV night time shows can you remember

The best time for ITV night time was when it first started and the regions all had their own schedules.
We got late night repeats of UFO, V and other filmed series aswell as some great films all with no sign language.

As the timeslot started to be networked it became just as crap as the rest of the ITV schedule and it's never recovered

 

[stumpy]

Oh yes, a spoof of 70s cop shows...an Australian series, I think

 

[IceCream899]

I used to video 'The Beat' hosted by Gary Crowley religiously.

 

[Hammerheart]

STV had "The Funny Farm" and talk show "Trial by Night", which I appeared on.

 

[Lali Xox]

Tour Of Duty

 

[yeedon]

A dishonourable mention for God's Gift and Carnal Knowledge? No, me either!

 

[Koron]

EnRABleigh League Football from about 1994 hosted by a young Gabriel Clarke which used to be on at about 1am on a Tuesday - all the goals from the 2nd, 3rd and 4th tier of English football - a real TV staple from my student days....
