Although all the episodes of Blankety Blank are the subject of strict editing, there's a particularly jarring cut when Les goes to speak to Steve Wright around the 21'40m mark.
Steve has his hands flat on his desk before cutting to a shot where he suddenly has his drink of water in his hand. What makes things even clearer that something has been removed is that just before the edit point, Christopher Biggins can be seen looking off set and miming a "cut" gesture with his fingers.

Two of the panellists have their names spelt incorrectly in the end credits - Su Ingle is listed as "Sue", while Claire Rayner's last name is written as "Raynor".
Les refers to EastEnders (1985) as "The Eastenders". As this is something he does whenever the programme is mentioned, it's possible he does it deliberately as "schtick", particularly as a cast member is on the panel.
