Toothbrush was also a game show. Each member of the audience was obliged to take to the studio their passport, a suitcase and permission from their employer for a possible week off work (or they could be unemployed or didn't care if they got fired). Two members of the audience were selected to take part in the "Light Your Lemon" quiz as a team. If they won, they went to some exotic destination (such as Mauritius) immediately after the show. If they lost, went to a less exotic place (such as Margate) chosen for its alliteration to the first. Margate is a town in Thanet, Kent, England (population about 60,000). ...

A memorable feature of the second season involved the audience flashing their house lights on and off at a prescribed moment. A camera in a mystery location would search for someone taking part, thus selecting them to play a game involving throwing things out of their windows.
What was undoubtedly the biggest moment in the entire series came in the penultimate show of the second series, when Chris Evans kept touting a huge surprise throughout the show, but didn't reveal it until he was about to play "Light Your Lemon". The audience were quite unprepared for how big a surprise it was when Evans announced that if the studio contestants won the exotic holiday, then every member of the audience would go for a week's holiday at Euro Disney. Obviously, the atmosphere was euphoric, and everyone was on tenterhooks in case the contestants lost the game. They won, and the whole audience left for Euro Disney immediately after the show.
