Synopsis

Criss Cross Quiz was a quiz programme that combined the game noughts and crosses with general knowledge questions and aired on the ITV network from 1957 to 1967. It was produced by Granada Television. The programme was presented by Jeremy Hawk from 1957 to 1962 and Barbara Kelly from 1963 to 1967. The series was based on an American show entitled Tic Tac Dough which ran from 1956 to 1959 and was revived in 1978. Additionally, a children's version of the show called Junior Criss Cross Quiz was produced starting in 1957. Kids played the game, but for prizes instead of money.

Presenters on the children's version were: Jeremy Hawk, Chris Kelly, Bob Holness, Mike Sarne, Chris Howland, Gordon Luck, Peter Wheeler, Bill Grundy, Danny Blanchflower and Barbara Kelly.
