Bibliogryphon 9,588 Posted December 15, 2015 I once appeared on 15 to 1 when William used to host it. However he only came in to read the questions and never chattered with the contestents. The set was held together with masking tape and bits of wood. I could be wrong, but wasn't the show filmed in Wandsworth, South London? It was definitely south of the river.

I only watched the show a couple of times, but I remember going by the studios when I'd get off the bus on my way to work. At the time I was working in Putney by the High Street.

the_engineer 1,415 Posted September 21, 2017 15 to 1 is my favourite quiz show ever. I remember coming home from school waiting for it to come on and eating my dinner watching it. I think it was on at 5.15 to 6pm not sure if that was the channel 4 run or when it was on challenge TV. I have seen most episodes so unwittingly I've probably seen both your appearances and not known it. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
