Exercise 7.3 - Solution

Sample answer.
It's a Royal Knockout (1987) was a one-off charity special in which members of the royal family led teams of celebrities. It was widely criticised and mocked, and it shows how closely the format was tied to the British idea of light entertainment. It was not part of the European contest.

Two things to check (any two): the exact date and the people who took part; the charities supported and the amount raised; contemporary press reaction and later comment.
