Does anyone else watch it? I'm often amazed at the low scores of some of the obvious (to an oldie like me) answers. Today I was watching a recorded episode and I was doubly amazed. 1) at the low score of the loser 6 points (possible points 200 - highest score loses) and second at a coincidence. The round was 'name an American baseball or football team place' 5 people named towns they could actually name the teams for. I was thinking - 'no use saying a big place whose teams I've heard of, think of a random place … Milwaukee' the 6th contestant also guessed, the same town. How unlikely is that?
I watch it sometimes. Do agree with what you say about the points and as you say sometimes to do with age. I hate it when at the final, the score goes down to 1
Must be really annoying to get a low score but not pointless in the final, or be knocked out on 6 in round 2 - wonder if that is the lowest ever? I record it and fast forward past all the chitchat and loud noises. Richard does make some stupid comments, mixed with his factual information. It annoys me, as it does if I happen to have the car radio on and hear the News Quiz - in that I think the contestants should make the jokes and the compere give the facts, not confuse us with rubbish.
