Need to add the FA Cup It's a Knockout competitions. These were usually filmed several days before and then shown in the pre-match warm-up on BBC1.

Liverpool v Arsenal 1971 - Liverpool won (scant consolation for losing the next day)

[edit] Untidy section organisation

The organisation of this article is a bit untidy. It's not clear what the information on the individual episodes (e.g. "UK heats") refers to; It's a Knockout or to Jeux sans Frontiers. Fourohfour 20:37, 2 June 2007 (UTC)

I've reorganised the article, and moved these lists to their own article, linking prominently so that people who want them can still find them. Fourohfour 21:13, 2 June 2007 (UTC)

Why on earth was this link removed ? http://www.jsfnet.co.uk/index.htm Did you actually check this website at all ? It is the most comprehensive website I've ever come across on the whole subject of the UK It's a Knockout. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Pgb62uk (talk • contribs).

I agree that the link is valid. It does seem to have been a casualty of a poor edit and an over-zealous cleanup. I'll pop it back in. Spenny 14:04, 27 July 2007 (UTC)
Well, the person who added the link either messed up or was intentionally trying to get more attention for the link; (a) They included it twice and (b) They overwrote a link to a legitimate article. (See here).
I probably should have left one of them in (and I thought I had), but primarily it wasn't my mistake. Fourohfour 21:23, 30 July 2007 (UTC)
No probs, I think that is what I was seeking to say (bad edit to put in, looked like accidentally got mixed in with a wiki link) and accidentally dropping both links. Cheers Spenny 22:00, 30 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] German version

There was a German equivalent called Spiel (or Spiele) Ohne Grenzen (literally "game (or games) without borders") and there's an entry in the German Wikipedia for Spiel ohne Grenzen but I fear my German is too rusty to attempt a decent translation for the In Other Countries section here. Anybody else care to try? AncientBrit (talk) 17:42, 12 March 2008 (UTC)
