Premise
James Bannerman hosted this show in which a panel attempts to guess the identity of an artifact from a gallery or museum. Archaeologists Walter Kenyon and John Lunn of the Royal Ontario Museum were regular panelists who were joined by a third guest panelist.[1] This concept was previously demonstrated during some episodes of Tabloid.[2]
CBC broadcast a similar panel game quiz program, What on Earth, from 1971 to 1975.[1]
Scheduling
This half-hour series was broadcast on Fridays at 9 p.m. from 3 July to 25 September 1959.
gollark: Well, 0.5% or so death rate, it's not great.
gollark: Well, that seems to partly be for vaccines and testing, which don't seem to have much of a possible counting issue going on. The other bit is for treatment, and I don't think they would particularly want to go to the hassle of treating people who don't actually have it.
gollark: Why?
gollark: For who to do that, exactly?
gollark: I don't really see what the "principle" is here.
