When it came back, it was Strike It Rich, produced by LWT/Freemantle and done from (I believe) Studio 2 at The London Studios.
Strike It Lucky continued as a Thames production for a few more years after they lost their franchise, up until 1994 I think. TV Studio History suggests they filmed a series or two at Pinewood.

The set looked okay for the Australian Strike it Lucky, but apart from that it's played too straight for my liking. Of course I have the benefit of seeing what Barrymore bought to the (UK) show (which, as he himself stated, had a crap format - whether it would have survived past the first series without Barrymore is open to debate).
Here's (most of) the first episode of Pets win Prizes. What I love about this is Danny Baker's pure unadulterated joy at getting it on to prime time BBC. Sadly no shire horses pulling pints of beer though.

DEF II says encyclopedia or dictionary to me. (ABC would be volume I, so DEF would be volume II).
There's an apocryphal and very probably false story that Terry Nation called Daleks that because he glanced at a bookshelf and saw an encyclopaedia labelled DAL-LEK.
