The Auction Grid on shows produced by Gerry Anderson would be reused for an Auction Grid in Episode #5.27 (1998).
However, only half of the options were the same on both grids: Fireball XL5, Space: 1999 (listed without the colon in both instances), Space Patrol, Star Cops (listed here as Starcops), Supercar and UFO.

This edition didn't make the Top 70 Chart.
The grid subjects featured on this edition are:
Main Grids: Creature noises; Characters who died in soap operas; Parts of the body.
Auction Grids: Gerry Anderson productions; Words beginning with "dis" that make no sense when "dis" is taken away.
Final Grid: Left-handed sports stars.

The second main grid - characters who died in soap operas - would reappear in a similar form in Episode #6.12 (1998).
However, here the idea of the game is to decide which of the 11 possible answers were soap opera characters who died - the later grid has an arguably easier game to match the characters with their stated cause of death.
While the latter grid from the Bob Monkhouse era only contained British soap operas, not the American and Australian soaps included here, the two grids still shared 7 possible answers: Valeria Barlow, Pete Beale, Archie Brooks, Miss Diane, Damon Grant, Eddie Royal (correctly spelt as Royle on the later edition) and Dirty Den (listed as Den Watts on the later grid).
