Set in Noel Edmonds' fictitious grand house in the equally fictitious town of Crinkley Bottom, the show centres around games involving the studio audience and special guest celebrities. Contestants can "grab a grand", home viewers can be caught out live in their own homes and celebrities get their just desserts in the gunge tank.

Noel Edmonds throws open the doors of his (supposed) stately home and entertains a packed party of celebrities in front of a live, have-a-go audience.
In the first programme of the series, mischievous Keith Chegwin tricks Henry Cooper into falling for a scam on the golf course, the cast of Birds of a Feather challenge the EastEnders in the Lyric Game, and Ronnie Corbett is on hand to add his own tiny touch of class to the proceedings as the butler. There's also contract gunging in the gunk tank, a chance for viewers to win a £1,000 cash prize, and a candid exchange of home truths between some precocious children and their battered parents that takes place, appropriately enough, in the genial host's dungeons.

This week's celebrity guests are comedian Frank Carson, actress Jean Boht of Bread fame, actor Howard Lew Lewis from Brush Strokes, and snooker players Willie Thorne and John Virgo.
