    Lingo was a short lived British game show that originally aired as a regional programme for Central in 1987, then it became networked for all ITV regions in 1988.

    The Thames series was produced to fill the summer gap in the ITV schedule in 1988 while long-running police drama The Bill was off air for the year. Lingo became a popular programme with ITV viewers, and was expected to return the following year. At the end of the gap, The Bill was returned to the schedule as normal, but from here, The Bill was broadcast continually without a series break; as a result, Lingo was dropped after just one series, also in part due to ITV launching another popular game show in Wheel of Fortune that year.

    Rules

    The game is played between two teams of two players each. At the start of the game, each team is given a "Lingo" card with 25 spaces on it. One team's card contains even numbers and the other contains odd numbers. Seven numbers on each card are automatically covered at the start of the game.

    Lingo (album)

    Lingo is the third studio album recorded by Australian band Gang Gajang. It was released in 1994 on RooART and distributed by Warner Music Australia.
