![]() The contestant earns 150, 100, or 50 Blanks for matching the first, second, or third most popular answers, respectively. They may ask any three celebrities for help, then use one of those responses or offer one of their own. The contestant is presented with a fill-in-the-blank phrase and must attempt to choose the most common response based on a studio audience survey. The "A"/"B" choice was eliminated when Les Dawson became the host, and reinstated once Lily Savage succeeded him. ![]() The first contestant to match any celebrity wins if the tiebreaker ends with no winner, a new question is played. ![]() Ties are broken with one final question in which both contestants write down their responses and the celebrities then give their answers, one at a time. The high scorer after two rounds wins the game and advances to the Supermatch. Should the trailing contestant fail to at least tie the score, the game ends immediately without the opponent having to take a turn. If a contestant makes all six matches in the first round, they sit out for the second and the opponent is given one chance to tie the score. Only the celebrities that a contestant fails to match in the first round participate on that turn in the second. Initial control of the first round is determined by coin toss, while the trailing contestant after the first round starts the second. The opposing contestant then takes a turn with the unused statement. The contestant scores one point for each celebrity whose answer is either an exact match or reasonably close, as determined by a panel of judges. Once all six have done so, the contestant states their answer and the celebrities then reveal theirs, one at a time.

She has the world's biggest blank." Statements are frequently written with comedic, double entendre answers in mind. The contestant with initial control in each round is given a blind choice of two statements, "A" or "B", and the host reads the chosen one aloud, with one word missing that is indicated by the word "blank".
