Whodunnit? is a British television game show, broadcast between 1972 and 1978 for ITV by Thames Television.
It was written by Lance Percival and Jeremy Lloyd, and hosted first by Edward Woodward, then by Jon Pertwee. Each week it featured a short murder-mystery drama enacted in front of a panel of celebrity guests (often led by actor Patrick Mower) who then had to interview the remaining characters to establish who the murderer was. The only clue was that only the murderer could lie.
It was similar in format, although not officially connected to, the popular board game Cluedo.
In 1979, NBC presented a short-lived American version of the show, hosted by Ed McMahon and featuring F. Lee Bailey and Melvin Belli as panelists.
