Teams from all over Britain race each other to fill the cards and shout 'Bingo!'

Tonight is the last round of the semi-finals. The two teams taking part have, up to this moment, scored higher points in their own individual matches than any others in this exciting and interesting game.
Stafford have won through by outpointing their neighbours, Birmingham, and then beating Aberdeen, winners of the Scottish round-while Wrexham, representing Wales, have beaten Cardiff and latterly Newcastle, winners of the North-Eastern round.

presenting Andy Williams
and his special guests, Ray Charles, Simon and Garfunkel, Burt Bacharach,
Mama Cass Elliott, The Raelets, The Ideals
with a prospectus for a swinging, singing show of today's sounds
A programme recorded in America
(First shown on BBC-2)

The success of this imaginative off-beat special is partly due to the selection of Andy's guest stars and the inventive skill of art director James Trittipo. He has effectively designed the show as a kaleidoscope of geometric patterns and multi-images which is ideal for the rhythm and blues theme of the show.
For his opening number Andy is enclosed in a box of mirrors which creates myriad pictures in an exploding pattern.

Joe, a Nottingham publican, prides himself as organiser of an annual bus tour to Blackpool. The group consists of a rowdy bunch of miners, hell-bent on a good time. Gradually Joe loses his hold as the defiant group disperses. He returns a sadder and wiser man.

The Story of the London to Sydney Marathon
The fastest rally cars in the world drove ten thousand miles in ten days to try to win the £10,000 first prize in the London to Sydney Marathon. The journey took them over the Alps, across the Bosphorus, through the deserts of Iran and Afghanistan to the Khyber Pass and the plains of India.
From Bombay the seventy-two survivors had a ten-day sea voyage to Fremantle before the final three-thousand-mile race through the outback of Australia to the finish at Sydney just before Christmas.
The Marathon proved to be the longest, the toughest-and the most surprising-rally in the history of motor sport, and the first two cars to reach Sydney were Andrew Cowan's Hillman Hunter and Paddy Hopkirk's British Leyland 1800. It was an outright British win. The Marathon was the motoring event of 1968 and Wheelbase covered it all the way.
