To actually win a catchphrase game does not require a lot of skill. However it is a very refreshing and interesting game. In short the program consists of a pannel hiding a picture that depicts a catchphrase. Each square composing the pannel is revealed once the contestants guess a minor catchphrase. Some of the catchphrases are ridculously ...  Read the complete review

Catchphrase is a great game show where you have to try and guess what the picture is showing. It is pretty hard and it takes while sometimes to figure it out. The things the picture is showing is often a well-known phrase. Two contestants battle it out to win. Even if you happen to lose, you get the money you earned by getting ...  Read the complete review

Why oh why oh why! Why did the makers of Catchphrase even bother to carry on without good ole Roy? I remember many a friday night sat in front of the box playing along with the hopeless contestants and laughing at Roy's fabulously cheesy 'catchphrases'; "Good, but not right" or "Say what you see, when you see it say ...  Read the complete review

We have all watched this games show, were you try and guess what the phrase is the animation is trying to represent. Although this is show isn’t bad it just doesn’t have anything that draws you in like say “who wants to be a millionaire”. This is the sort of show that you could watch just to kill time but if you sit down ...  Read the complete review

Dear oh dear, yet another perfectly good cheesy game show ruined by a change of presenter. Roy come back! We all miss your accent, your own annoying catchphrases: "It's good but It's not right", "Say what you see", "Take a square", and "There's no bell" (?!?) We all miss your fondness ...  Read the complete review

Catchphrase is quite a good gameshow. There are 3 contestants on every show and the object is to guess the phrase by looking at animations on a giant screen. There is a charcter called Mr. Chips who often features in these animations. Also, there are some animations where only a small square of the animation is revealed at a time, which can be ...  Read the complete review

I remember the old days of Catchphrase - Roy Walker using his own variety of catchphrases on every show - "It's good, but it's not right", "Say what you see", etc, etc. It just isn't the same without him. This new bloke is about as boring as a packet of crisps with no flavouring. Without Roy walker, the ...  Read the complete review

I used to quite enjoy catchphrase...easy viewing and a great laugh with plenty of entertainment and jokes, but now it seems to developed into a show where they give away easy money and prizes. The contestants only have to give a near similar answer and they get the points. What is the point of that as a game show!!!!!!! and some of the ...  Read the complete review

Catchpharse really isn't the same any more. I watched it with my grandmother the other day and it was useless. Not only is the presenter and the format different the catchphrases are harder I couldn't answer hardly any of them..lol.. The presenter can't be up to much when he broke his leg on the steps on his first ...  Read the complete review

Catchphrase is just not the same without Roy Walker , iIused to love Saturday evening TV where we would all sit down and watch catchphrase . Now Catchphase has moved to Fridays and in my mind has become so tacky . The catchphrases have become so much more easier , I don't know how the contestents can manage to get them wrong , like ...  Read the complete review

Sadly the answer to this question is, he's queueing up for his dole along with Roy Walker, who is probably turning in his TV grave at the site of this new impersonator to his throne. Roy Walker with his quirky voice made Catchphrase, I fondly remember every saturday teatime sitting down to watch this cult classic. But now at it's new ...  Read the complete review

Are you a catchphrase fan??? The reasonably popular game show featuring chip, the gold robot in some of the catchphrases has gone downhill in my opinion. I think the biggest mistake they made was trying to replace Roy Walker. He wasn't my favourite game show host out of everything but he's better than the pleb who presents ...  Read the complete review

Ok, I never thought I'd hear myself utter these words, but pleeeeeeeease bring back Roy Walker! I know his slogans were annoying and everything was good but not right, but this new bloke is just soooooo cheesy. At least Roy had some comedy value to him. Now we have Mr Cruise Ship. Someone give this guy a personality transplant please before ...  Read the complete review

Last night I had the misfortune of putting "Catchphrase" on the television. I used to really enjoy it with Roy Walker, and although the set was not as jazzy it seemed much more relaxing. I have no idea where they select the contestansts from either, as they all ways seem to be strange. It is just cheap TV, and it was dissappointing to ...  Read the complete review

Has anyone ever noticed how the little cartoon character on Catchphrase looks like a Weetabix with legs? No, then you've not been watching closely enough. What a great show. Like you're really going to guess the catchphrase when you can only see about 2mm of the screen. Oh, it's so obviously 'scraping the barrel'. At least the ...  Read the complete review
