If you've got the time, it looks like this link has the definitive list of all quiz shows UK (and maybe US)...the page it goes to is just T - U in UK, but a quick look at the options on the left...it's just a case of ploughing through them all.

It HAS been bookmarked! :o) Yes, it DOES seem that many quiz shows contain an element, I just couldn't figure out whether this exact concept was actually a DANISH invention, but it would seem that way.Thanks all."
