Bishop Fulton J. Sheen Appears on TV Quiz Show (Video)
This was a television game show that was on in the '50s and '60s. The show would have a panel and a moderator and a guest.
The panel would have to guess the occupation of the guest through 'yes' and 'no' questions.
At the end of the show a celebrity was brought on as the guest, the panel would be blindfolded and they had to guess who it was.
In this episode, Bishop Fulton Sheen was the celebrity guest. Bishop Sheen had a weekly television show in which he would talk about and explain our Catholic faith. He even won an Emmy for his show!
The celebrities would often have to disguise their voices because their distinct voices could have given them away - I think it's hilarious that Bishop Sheen chose to answer the questions in French to disguise his voice! His concern for the poor also shines through when he requests that the prize given to him at the end of the show be sent to the leper colonies.
