Whittle may refer to:
Whittle is a UK game show for Channel 5, hosted by comedian Tim Vine. The show aired throughout the channel's first two broadcasting years, from 31 March 1997 to 21 June 1998. It was shown at 18:00 (later 17:30) as part of a quiz block with the series 100%. The game show is similar to Everybody's Equal, the Chris Tarrant-presented ITV game show.
UKGameshows.com said that "despite its obviously inexpensive roots", the game show "works fairly well".
The show is played by an audience of 100 people who would through the show be 'whittled' down to a single winner.
During the first half of the show, the contestants answer questions which appear on a giant screen along with four possible answers, exactly one of which is correct. The players then have ten seconds to press a button on their keypads according to which answer they think is correct. Players failing to give the correct answer within ten seconds are eliminated from the game. The host would often find and ridicule anyone who chose the obviously incorrect answers. This is repeated up to six times in the first half, which must end with exactly ten players remaining; this is achieved by making the last question a timed question, in which not only are players failing to give the correct answer eliminated, players failing to give the correct answer and be one of the ten fastest correct answers are also eliminated.

You're up to something, something up to no good
You've made the wrong choice
You won't recover from this one
The report just came in
And things aren't looking too good
You can't forget your fears and your fears won't forget you!

Too bad we never gave you the chance
