As we're approaching the festive season, here's a game of Monkey charades. Who is hosting the first live-streamed, Twitter-led game of Christmas charades? He's a presenter with a fondness for jazzy knitwear. Two words. First word has two syllables. Second word sounds like "fair". That's it, you've guessed it, Lionel Blair. Yes, the former Give Us A Clue captain is back as the face of festive Twitter charades. If, like Monkey, you miss the innocent banter, beige sets and even more beige outfits of Give Us A Clue, you can take part in the Twitter-led Christmas charades on 8 December, an event created by digital agency Collective. But remember the Give Us A Clue mantra: no conversation, just demonstration.
