I've been reviewing progress on my research and had some good input in the last week or so.
If you're a player of these shows or just curious take a visit to the Phonequiz Answers website [thanks Greggles Fan].
If you want to see what the Panorama TV programme found out about the methods used look here.
And if you want to know what the House of Commons Culture, Media and Sport Committee thought about it all look here.
Oh Yes and don't forget massive fine that Channel 4 has got to pay for Richard and Judy's phone in quiz.

Mike Tully set up the service provider, "Voice Media" (later Arrow Interactive), which was bought by Eckoh. When Eckoh were fined for the "Richard & Judy" TV scam, they claimed that "that the procedures in relation to the Competition [had] not changed materially since the time the competition and some of the staff working on it were taken over from Arrow". The PP+ adjudication panel also found that "The circumstances of the breach are so stark and so blatant that the situation should have been immediately clear and should have been avoided from the outset. In fact, the offending procedures appear to have been in place at least [my emphasis] since Eckoh took over the Competition [from Mike Tully's firm] in 2004."
Mike Tully is a board member of PhonePayPlus (the premium rate line regulator) and sits ofn the adjudication panel.
