The UK charades game will be returning to TV soon with a whole new version. Unfortunately, Talkback Thames, the UK division of Fremantle Media, is producing it.

A pilot has been shot and it will hopefully be pitched to a UK network no later than this fall.

Will Lionel Blair be reprising his role as Lionel Blair?

Tom, I doubt it.

I think the most annoying thing on the new version would be us probably hearing something like, "My name is... Vernon Kay!"

Didn't this normally air at about 2:30pm?

Or James Corden.
Or Michael McIntyre.

No Vernon Kay only hosts programmes that make people look like halfwits...

Lionel Blair should host it - he's plenty old enough to qualify for a desk job.

Danny John-Jules could take his place in a team.

Why are deaf people insomniacs.All their programs seem to be on at 3 in the morning.

It might be closed captioned, Damian!

Who knows!

With the wrong subtitles.

We call that closed captioning here

Well, i think closed captioning is like subtitles, right? You've surely seen where they have a person inset in a bubble, using sign language for deaf people right? Like this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZvF6Ejr3 ... re=related

That's what Damian meant, and give us a clue is charades. Boom boom! :)
