Story and premise

Take Your Pick! was a United Kingdom game show originally broadcast by Radio Luxembourg in the early 1950s. The show transferred to television in 1955 with the launch of ITV, where it continued until 1968. As it was the first game show broadcast on commercial television in the UK (and the BBC did not at that point offer monetary prizes on its game shows),

It was also by default the first British game show to offer cash prizes.

The programme was later revived from 24 February 1992 to 28 August 1998.
