There are many strange edits, I remember I saw one once where a contestant got a question right on Strike it Lucky, Barrymore started moving and the next thing we knew was fade to black and the other contestant had struck the sccreen as they say.  I can only presume Barrymore (who to be fair did do a lot of ad-hoc comedy and impressions on that show at seemingly random) launched into Jake The Peg or something en-route.

The other edit I remember was when they had the brown set on SiL (which was only Series 6 IIRC) and they chopped out Barrymore using an old lady as a ventriloquist's dummy, so it looked like he picked her up just to see how heavy she was (or wasn't).

Then of course there are all the Virgin Media edits to Family Fortunes, Bullseye and no doubt others that they're still using best part of 15 years later...

Some edits around end of parts as well, as they used to chop all that "end of Part One" out but they seem to have undone a lot of that.
Plain as the nose on your face when the edit was in the cue dot period as well

I've always been very surprised that Challenge [or some other broadcaster] doesn't attempt to try and find the original recordings for most of these older game shows [FF, Millionaire, to name a few] that got butchered by previous owners and re-edited them for modern uses.

I remember how we had to put up with the dodgy Millionaire edits (Series 5 onwards) where Virgin Media hacked away at so much of the contestant chatter that episodes had to be merged to make them hour-long broadcasts, which broke up the start and end of actual episodes. Which meant when we got the Series 1-4 broadcasts, it was a welcome difference where the only edits were to the phone number and the Millionaire break sting logo, due primarily to Challenge knowing there was no reason to cut out everything randomly.

I get we probably will never see half of Bob Monkhouse hosting FF due to most of the episodes being lost, but would be great if all the Max Bygraves and Les Dennis stuff was re-edited. One notable edit from the Max Bygraves era is during the infamous Turkey episode where, after Bob gives the answer "Disraeli" for the "name a famous Irishman" question, the audience laughs for a bit, then Max should say "I tell you what, we get idiots as well on this programme", but for some reason that sentence is cut and it just jumps to Bob laughing at Max's comment. It's hardly that offensive but someone decided [somehow] it wasn't appropriate to include.

It'd also give them a chance to re-air many of the random gaffes from answers given by contestants which are lost to the ages [such as the one where a contestant gave an answer of "brothel" for "a place where you wouldn't expect to meet a nun": the most you see is a short burst of laughter before the titles roll at the start of Family Misfortunes if you find a clip of it online on YouTube]
