Why didn't you say it was the Australian version with Bert Newtown?

I'd think the title in the subject line would've been a giveaway.

I highly suspect that's not an official page, you know.

Is it just me, or does this Bert fellow look frighteningly like a puffy Bill Shatner?

It's not you.  Before reading your post, I noticed the Shatner resemblance immediately.

With the last name of the host spelled correctly (Newton), as well it should for someone who's been on TV in Australia from the beginning.

During the brief time we saw "The Don Lane Show" in the U.S. in 1980, we did see Bert regularly (although his game segment was usually not included in the U.S. version).

And please--tell me he doesn't say "I'M GOING TO DOUBLE THE POINTS!"--followed by ridiculous cheering.
