 * POSTED IN TRIBUTE TO YOU TURPS. REST IN PEACE IAN TURPIE WHO PASSED 11 MARCH 2012 *********************

Nostalgic snippets of the Brisbane BTQ7 production of 'Play Your Cards Right' with always-entertaining Ugly Dave Gray. Dave is remembered for his fine work on Graham Kennedy's 'Blankety Blanks' back in the 1970's - currently shown on Foxtel's Comedy Channel.

Although 'Play Your Cards Right' rated highly in Queensland at 5.30pm, audiences in Sydney & Melbourne did not take to the Brisbane-based show - leaving the Seven Network to scrap the 'Cards' in favour of a new concept game show compered by Michael Pope - the 'Trivial Video Show'. The replacement program did not rate much better.
