Rod Holworth in Wipeout (1994)

Trivia

Episode #1.4

Wipeout

This edition didn't make the Top 70 Chart.
Contestant Rod Holworth had previously taken part in Unaired Pilot 2 (1994).
The grid subjects featured on this edition are:

Main Grids: Sporting expressions; things named after people; female celebrities aged 60 or over.

Auction Grids: Backing groups; people never married; Roman numbers.

Final Grid: Blue Peter presenters.
The subject of the final grid - presenters from Blue Peter (1958) - had would be reused for an Auction Grid in Episode #5.56 (1998).

However, only three of the options - Leila Williams, Anthea Turner and the Wipeout answer of Tommy Boyd - were the same.

What's notable is that this original version of the grid used presenters from a much earlier era of the programme, with five of the six presenters involved in the series no later than 1979.

The later version largely used presenters from a more modern era of the series, with all eight presenters - excluding original presenter Leila Williams - taking part in the show from 1978 to 1996. (The Auction Grid, containing more correct answers than a final grid, required two extra correct answers.)
