'Like an oyster and a pearl, And a guy and a girl
What have you got? You got a Perfect Match!'
Perfect Match (1983–89) was a 1980s game show that had a very similar format to its 1970s predecessor Blind Date, but with the glitz, glamour and colour dialled up to 11!
A catchy theme song, a match-making robot named Dexter and a healthy dose of saucy innuendo was a formula for ratings success, if not for true love.
The show was hosted by 80s heartthrobs Greg Evans and later Cameron Daddo, with their respective co-hosts Tiffany Lamb and Deborah Newsome.
This clip features Evans and Lamb and introduces the evening's contestants and the first round of questions.
This clip is from ep 138/1, recorded on 9 October 1986 and broadcast on 3 November 1986.
