Don’t know where I got the idea she’d won £30,000, it was £10,000. Still not a bad outcome. As you say the most you can win is £20,000. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm unemployed, I basically just sit around watching boxsets and quiz shows all day every day and the presenter mentioned a couple of months back that the 20k has only been won once.

Jeff Stein Posted November 6, 2020 Share Posted November 6, 2020 On 05/11/2020 at 18:39, Moose said: The first contestant was a middle age Scottish chap who knew that Berwick on Tweed was near the border with Scotland and thought it was in Norfolk. The second answer came from a 20ish year old female who admitted she hadn’t a clue about her own country’s geography. Hopefully neither work for Royal Mail. When sending a parcel to Thailand once I was asked by the lady behind the counter whether it was in Europe so it is a possibility Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff Stein Posted November 7, 2020 Share Posted November 7, 2020 Enjoyed Trackers on Sky Atlantic last night based on the novel of the same name by the excellent Afrikaans writer Deon Meyer. Rather surprisingly it was developed by Meyer with Robert Thorogood, the creator of Death in Paradise. There were a few minor changes from the book and I guess it would always be difficult to portray the author's portrayal of the complexities of life in the new South Africa, but it was still a cracking watch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

graveyard johnny Posted November 11, 2020 Share Posted November 11, 2020 but back to quiz shows - the public v pro quizzers - the chase eggheads etc - there always has to be royalty lines and shakespeare questions in every single show - the pro quizzers memorise all this info as par for the course but keith from kettering doesnt- make it more even - general knowledge for everyone ditch royalty and shakespeare - its too heavily weighted in the favour of pro quizzers see you later undertaker - in a while necrophile Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Try watching it on mute , helps you try and get an answer without the sound of the geeks discussing the question , and also i`ve noticed when watching without the sound on Victoria C M throws her head , arms and hair about like a demented Miss Piggy on speed .

Bleep1673 Posted November 13, 2020 Share Posted November 13, 2020 I was watching TV this morning & I was surprised how I thought of a cross reference. I was watching Homes Under the Hammer, and I have been following the Oscar Pistorious Story, and when the bids came in "thick & fast", I thought of Oscar, because he never came across as the sharpest knife in the box, did he?
