The audience is filled with family members of the cast and crew.  Children of staffers also provide the Secrets.   

9-month-old Jennifer Crichton: “My grandfather is seeing me for the first time tonight” (He’s watching the show in California) 
Jennifer is joined by her mother Judy from the show’s research department.   

Susan Feldman: “My Godmother is Faye Emerson and my Godfather is Henry Morgan.” 
Young Susan is the daughter of Associate Producer Chester Feldman.   

“Almost” 8-year-old Robert Sherman, the son of producer Allan Sherman, shows up to recall an earlier appearance in which five-year-old Sherman rode a lion.  Garry tells us the clip is from the September 28, 1955 show ( E155 ).  Young Robert would grow up to be a major behind-the-scenes figure for Goosdon-Todman productions, as well as an independent producer.  One of his early professional roles for G-T was working on the 1972 syndicated version of I've Got a Secret.     

Amy and Wendy Alter: “We just served the panel a mince pie baked in 1876 (81 years old)” 
Amy and Wendy are the daughters of director Paul Alter.   

The final segment is a guessing game involving Christmas cards sent by celebrities, including Kathryn and Bing Crosby, Tyrone Power, Glenn Ford, and Mary and Jack Benny.
