| Description | A glorious collection of obscure, bizarre and often, frankly, useless information about television. It includes facts, figures, lists (very important), quotes and momentous events from the world of television. A must for all telly anoraks and fans. The book will include: items covering spin-offs from TV series, character catchphrases, award-winners, famous TV animals, Blue Peter presenters, entertainers discovered by Opportunity Knocks, great quotes about TV, great TV moments and much more. For instance, the first million-dollar winner of 'How Wants to Be a Millionaire' in the US (one John Carpenter) asked to 'phone a friend' on the final million-dollar question. He rang his father and coolly announced that he was about to become a millionaire because he knew the answer to the question. The great Homer Simpson once observed: 'Television Teacher, mother, secret lover', Evans' TV Trivia fulfills two of those three roles.. |
