Quiz with Hale is a British television game show that aired on the BBC from 1946 to 1947. Presented by Lionel Hale, the 30-minute series invited viewers to play along by marking their own quiz paper with the suggestion that you got 1 mark for a brave try, 2 marks for a near miss and 3 marks for a bullseye.[1][2]

Page 29 (31 of file) of volume 147 of The Chemist and Druggist says episode telecast 28 December 1946 asked viewers to identify three substances from their Latin labels.[3]

The programme is lost, as methods to record live television were not developed until late 1947, and were used very rarely by the BBC until the mid-1950s, additionally U.K. game shows were usually wiped into the 1980s.
