In a parallel universe...

While enjoying my vacation in Sydney, I came across their version of Match Game called Blankety Blanks. The hit show was hosted by the Aussie "king" of comedy Graham Kennedy (who sadly went to his grave as a closeted "queen").

My head almost exploded when I saw the same exact studio set as the USA version - along with their own types of 'Bretts' and 'Charles'.

Get Ready to Match the Aussie Stars!



Watch the host put on his best homo lispy voice for the "Cyril said" question:

    We had "Blankety Blank" over here. Maybe there was just one blank. I don't remember the rules! My mind's a bit BLANK. And I only have BLANK for Ginger (BLANK).
