My Dad and I always used to play "Escape from Colditz" when I was little. I remember always having to be the black police pieces though as it used to scare me being the one trying to escape! He still has it in a tatty looking box! Doubt he'd be willing to sell it though!
Plenty on eBay though if you are after one!

I know I have mentioned this site before, but Bargain Crazy has some cheap board games. I got the "don't wake Dad" game, which retails for 14.99 in Argos for £8.99. They also do some of the classics for 5.99 and they have the dream phone is for £10, which I think was double this price in Tesco for it yesterday.0

Best place to look for the older games is charity shops and car boot sales.
I bought Notability at a car boot, actually swapped an answer machine for it with the next door stall.
Friends that we have a games night with every so often, Bargains_Galore, were so impressed with the game they set off on a mission to find one and in the end found two in different charity shops in great condition.
I will now find myself looking everywhere for Colditz0 -
ASDA have various games that are just like the MB orginals tohugh they have different names.
I seen variations of Twister, Guess Who and Buckaroo possibly others but having 4 kids it doesn't pay to dawdle in the toy isle.
I think they were retailing for approx £3.500 -
