ABSTRACT:
An interactive television system includes television transmission apparatus (TTA), a transmission path (TPA) and a plurality of television receivers (TRA-1 to TRA-n). The television receivers include a telephone interface (TRT-1 to TRT-n) by which they can communicate with the television transmission apparatus (TTA).
The system is arranged to enable interactive games to be played where viewers compete with contestants in a television studio. For a first portion of the program the viewers compete independently and the television receiver accumulates the score. For the final stages of the program viewers with a score above a transmitted threshold are invited to.
