''Many a Slip'' was a BBC Radio 4 panel game created by Ian Messiter that ran from 1964 to 1979. It was chaired by Roy Plomley, with a musical mistakes round supplied by Steve Race. The title of the show is a reference to the English proverb "There's many a slip twixt the cup and the lip". The BBC received requests from school teachers and lecturers for transcripts of Ian Messiter's pieces as a fun way of teaching educational subjects to students. ==Contestants== For the first couple of series, the contestants were Isobel Barnett and Eleanor Summerfield versus Richard Murdoch and Lance Percival. Temporary replacements for Lance Percival in the first series (each for one show) were Kenneth Horne, Terence Alexander and Jon Pertwee. When the annual radio series returned, magician David Nixon replaced Lance Percival. When David Nixon died in the 1970s Lance Percival returned. In the early 1970s Isobel Barnett and Richard Murdoch were replaced by Katharine Whitehorn and Paul Jennings. The new panellists were replaced after only one series by Tim Rice and Gillian Reynolds who remained till the show was taken off air in 1979. Over 250 shows were recorded. Roy Plomley and Steve Race were in every show. Eleanor Summerfield only missed two shows; her temporary replacement was Andrée Melly.
