'''Music/Sounds:''' For game shows, an upbeat, jazzy brass fanfare can be heard (based on the original Grundy Television theme - specifically the one used for ''Sale of the Century''), along with the announcer (usually either Jay Stewart or Charlie Tuna) saying "(name of show) is a Reg Grundy Production!" Other shows (such as ''Scattergories'' in 1993) would have the end title music playing. For the distributor logo, it's just the "whoosh" sound as the shining wipe effect. Other series wouldn't use either the fanfare or the announcement. On the 1985 pilot ''Matchmates'', a different fanfare was heard. On early episodes of the first series of ''Going for Gold'', each episode ended with the following spiel over the closing bars of the show's theme - "Produced in association with Super Channel and the BBC, Going for Gold is a Reg Grundy Production!".
