Based on the UK Television Series of the same name following the exploits of the Manchester couch potato Royle family.

The object of the game is to answer trivia questions in order to collect Club biscuits. You miss turns if "Dave buys you a pint in The Feathers" or if "Barbara puts the kettle on for a brew......."

The mechanics are simple dice based movement with card drawing. Three decks of cards are used: Television Facts, Chance cards and the endearingly titled "My Arse" deck which takes it's name from Jim Royle's favourite saying.

Believe it or not there is a special edition which comes with a novelty toilet seat cover with a picture of Jim Royle on it!
