Raise the Roof was a British television game show which ran from 2 September 1995 to 13 January 1996 for ITV and was hosted by Bob Holness.
Eliminated contestants kept whatever money they earned; in addition, the lowest-scoring player in each round also received "Bob's Bungalow" – a cottage-shaped teapot.
If they were tied in this respect as well, one last true/false tiebreaker was asked and the contestant who responded correctly in the shortest time would advance.
Contestants who tied for low scores and were eliminated each received Bob's Bungalow.
Four correct answers were needed to win the house; if the contestant ran out of time or missed two questions, they won a consolation prize and Bob's Bungalow instead.
Another criticism was that the questions were too easy to generate real suspense, and the pacing was too slow to keep viewers interested.
Early episodes of the show had both a sponsorship deal with Express Newspapers and a viewer competition where gamecards could be collected freely from all major newsagents and viewers could play along with the show for the chance to win a new house of their own.
