Happy Hour Hall of Fame

Every guest on Happy Hour is asked what belongs in the Hall of Fame. This unofficial fan tribute keeps the answers, from a potato to Ally Pally, in a gallery you can search and a hall you can walk.

A handful of nominations, on the gallery’s midnight plinths. Drag one.

Drag a plaque. Arrow keys slide the focused one.

Little Races

A kid-friendly race for a real toy car. A grown-up lays the screen flat, the car sits in the middle, and the road moves underneath.

Drag the road with a mouse, or swipe. The car on the glass stays put. Arrow keys work when the road is focused.
