Series
I can't believe it's been five years since this show was last on! Anyone know how many series were made, and why it was axed? 217.155.20.163 18:41, 30 April 2007 (UTC)

Dates
Various anonymous IP editors have been radically changing dates in this article, without citing any sources, and without even any edit summaries. I'm of the mind that these changes should be reverted on sight unless and until someone provides some reliable sources. — SMcCandlish ☺ ☏ ¢ ≽ʌⱷ҅ᴥⱷʌ≼  03:56, 20 July 2015 (UTC)

Make or Break
Is it me, or was the voiceover that described the prizes inconsistent with how they were actually distributed? I'm sure it said "if there are any reds left on the table..." whereas I think you only won the red prize after sinking them all? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 51.9.119.141 (talk) 08:32, 23 December 2020 (UTC)

NO ref to the Pilot?
There is no ref to the original pilot made in 1990 with Mike Reid and John Parrott

The show was in part, inspired by ITV’s hit show Bullseye. in May 1990, an unbroadcast pilot show was filmed. It was hosted by another comedian Mike Reid, alongside snooker player and commentator John Parrott. However then BBC Director-General: Michael Checkland, felt that the structure and scoring of the show was too similar to ITV’s Bullseye. He also felt that Reid and Parrott did not have the right ‘double-act’ relationship. The idea was not shelved. Instead in 1991 a one-off special was filmed with the intention of being aired during the Christmas period that year. While it used the same set, the show was now hosted by comedian Jim Davidson alongside former snooker player John Virgo. A decision was made to re-edit the special to become the pilot episode of a new series. Big Break finally made it’s debut in April 1991. The show ran for fourteen series clocking up mammoth two hundred and twenty two episodes (inc seventeen specials). Episodes were thirty minutes duration
