Don't Forget Your Toothbrush was a Saturday night light entertainment show originally broadcast in the United Kingdom in 1994, it was also adapted in Australia, Belgium, France, Germany, Denmark, Italy, Norway, Sweden, the United States, the Netherlands and Portugal. The show was written and presented by Chris Evans, who as weknow was very funny. The show ran for two series in 1994 and 1995 on Channel 4. Shows were transmitted live on Saturday nights.
Jools Holland provided the music during the live shows. They accompanied the star performers, who included Barry White, Lulu and Tony Hadley. Evans ended each show with a song. In series one he sang Morecambe and Wise's "Bring Me Sunshine" with that week's star guest, while in series two he sang Andy Williams' "It's So Easy".
The star guest took part in the Superfan quiz to see if they knew more trivia about themselves than a huge fan, against whom they were competing. The prize was a possession of the stars that only a true fan would value.

Toothbrush was also a game show. Each member of the audience was obliged to take to the studio their passport, a suitcase and permission from their employer for a possible week off work (or they could be unemployed or didn't care if they got fired). Two members of the audience were selected to take part in the "Light Your Lemon" quiz as a team. If they won, they went to some exotic destination (such as Mauritius) immediately after the show. If they lost, went to a less exotic place (such as Margate). Viewers at home also had the chance to win the exotic holiday by answering a question posed by Jools Holland.
The hostess for the first series was Evans' then girlfriend Rachel Tatton-Brown. She was replaced in the second series by his then new girlfriend, Jadene Doran.
One game featured during the second series involved the audience flashing their house lights on and off at a prescribed moment. A camera in a mystery location would search for someone taking part. When a house had been found, the occupants (who were never seen) would play a game in which Evans would tell them to throw 10 household items out of specific windows, for example "Throw a kettle out of the main bedroom window".
Deffinaltely a good entertainment show which (I read some where) may be making a come back, but are unsure if Chris Evans would be presenting.

Summary: a light hearted entertainment show
