one of my favorite TV programs growing
0:02
up here in the UK was Family Fortunes a
0:05
light-hearted family-friendly quiz show
0:08
which involves two families who would
0:10
compete against each other to win cash
0:12
prizes contestants could win said prizes
0:16
by correctly getting the top answers to
0:19
a number of everyday questions that were
0:21
previously surveyed by 100 members of
0:24
the great British public now the fun of
0:28
this game show for me was not cheering
0:29
on the guest
0:30
it wasn't hoping they would win these
0:32
big cash prizes but rather laughing at
0:35
the host of the game show and cackling
0:37
at the ridiculous
0:38
answers that his contestants would give
0:40
a game you could play in the back
0:43
vennett at scuba-diving so in tribute to
0:48
this amazing show Charlie and I are
0:51
