Lingo game show12/21/2023 ![]() ![]() Physical distancing forced a well-spaced set. ![]() The top prize was £3,200 plus whatever the couple won in the main game, making it possibly the highest cash prize on network television at the time, although this was no doubt superseded by the jackpot on Wheel of Fortune, which started soon after. There was a silver ball in this round that did something amazing too, if memory serves. The contestants could choose whether or not to play another round - if they were unlucky enough to complete a line, they would go home with half their previous winnings. There would be one line that needed only one number to complete it, and the host would hold onto the corresponding ball for the first round, but after that, it would have to go in with the other balls - and Daniels was always keen to encourage the contestants to mix the balls around so that they wouldn't pull out said ball any too easily. The end game was played in reverse, the winning team had to guess words but the longer they took, the more balls they would have to draw with a view to NOT making a line. They also had to avoid picking a "Dreaded Red" ball which automatically handed control over to their opponents. If they did it, they could draw balls from their table which would get crossed off their board and if they made a line they would get mega points.
