Product Description
Amazon.co.uk Review
If you're old enough to remember Derek Beatty, but young enough to still have your own teeth, Mr & Mrs is definitely a game for you.
Based on the immensely popular 70s TV show, the game is sure-fire way to bring toil and trouble to otherwise calm relationships.
The concept is as simple as its on-screen counterpart: one partner is asked questions about the other, and both must agree to score points. "How often does your partner weigh themselves?" will strike fear into many men's hearts, and "At what age did he start shaving?" is a question many women may not be able to answer accurately. Some questions are divided in "man" and "woman", while others are suitable for all. Depending on the number of players, the host is either an individual or a team, and "partners" do not have to be the same gender, or even a partnership in the traditional sense: mothers and daughters can play sisters and brothers, and so on. The key, however, is that you know your partner well enough to engage in an honest appraisal of their character and habits. The first partner to be asked writes down their answer, and these are compared to the second partner's answers to see if points are scored. All points are kept centrally by the host(s).
Simple, fun and often controversial, this game is guaranteed to bring chaos to any tranquil household, the like of which has probably not been since the game "Scruples" was so popular in the early 90s. --Susan Naylor
Manufacturer's Description
The game based on BBC's hugely popular 'Bargain Hunt ' featuring David Dickinson allows you to buy antiques from the Antiques Fair and hopefully sell them for a profit at auction, this can be achieved by clever use of the Auction Event Cards and the luck of the dice roll.
But beware of the other players' tactics. Should you listen to David's advice or can you find your own 'Bobby Dazzlers'?
Win the most or lose the least to win!
All the items featured in the game have been taken from Miller's Collectables Price Guide 2003/4 and include pictures, descriptions and prices.
Manufacturer's recommended age 10 years +.

This review is from: Mr & Mrs Board Game (Toy)
This game is SUCH fun...! We bought it as an anniversary present for our friends and subsequently played it.. it had us in hysterics.. things that you think you know about your husband/wife, like what is their fave colour.. number.. pop band.. film star.. even birthdays... its amazing what you think you know, but don't! We had about 5 hours of playing this straight off... we became completely addicted.... Now I am going to buy it for some American friends who are getting married.. lets see if they see the funny side of it... I shall update you!!!

This review is from: Mr & Mrs Board Game (Toy)
This game is not bad once in a while. It offers the potential for humour not so much in the questions posed (e.g. "what's your partner's favourite ice-cream"), but in the sometimes heated debates that ensue (it was marvellous to see my mother haranguing my father telling him that his favourite ice-cream has always been vanilla (I know you better than you know yourself) when he insisted it was strawberry). This is about as funny as it gets.
Any time you need a little light relief when you're with your family this fits the bill.

Unexpected guests? Power cut? Has the rain spoiled your BBQ ? or do you just need a fun game to play with friends.Then this is the game for you. Not only is it good fun, but you really do get to know how well that friend or loved one really does know you. Take it with you on that caravan holiday in case it rains. You can even play this with the Mother in Law Give it a go,
