Bob Monkhouse, Roland Renner, Wendy Sealey, and Jeni Houghton in Wipeout (1994)

Trivia

Episode #5.19

Wipeout

This first grid on this edition is "Named After People?", with various items, including cheeses, nuts and apples.

A grid going by the same name appeared on Episode #2.5 (1994), but, as a very generic title with which to house a variety of answers, none of the options were the same.
Contestant Roland Renner is identified by a nickname on his display podium - "Roly".
The grid subjects featured on this edition are:

Main Grids: Things named after people; Trees.

Auction Grids: Dames; TV series set in Liverpool.

Final Grid: Characters from The Addams Family.
The citing of the holiday prize destination in plot outlines for Bob Monkhouse episodes is an affectation just to describe the episode. The reality was, there wasn't a "fixed" holiday location, but all three contestants were allowed to pick the holiday of their choice. As a result, there were likely to be three separate destinations being picked, depending on which one got to the final. This edition didn't really offer a "holiday in Venice", but rather the contestant that made it through to the final had chosen Venice as their desired prize.

This is further complicated by a contestant in Episode #5.15 (1998) who later alleged that the holiday prize didn't actually exist, and was just for show.
