Trivia - Eric Bana is a good friend of Charlie Boorman and both were at an event I was at - had a chat with him as he was keen to buy my motorcycle that wasn’t for sale enjoyed the scenery of Untamed - been there by motorcycle and seen a bear - from a distance.

Nah but he did mention peanut dust

I got the first two and thought I was motoring, then absolutely fuck all until the Spon Street question at the end.

 

[Gynnsthetonic]

A City season ticket holder too. Sounds like he doesn't live in Coventry any more though

 

[Bugsy]

Yeah it's class to be fair, well I found it funny

It's a mockumentary about a private radio station, definitely worth a watch.

I might see if my son wants to start watching it with me. I've just read up on it and sounds our kind of thing

As for Only Connect that's on now I'm lucky to answer one correct question per series

 

[ajsccfc]

I'm hopeless at that until it comes to the missing vowels, I reckon I could take on the nerds at that one. The first round though, half the time I don't get it even when they've explained the answer

 

[Otis]

I struggle to make 3 letter words on Countdown.

 

[ajsccfc]

For anyone who needs an ego boost I always recommend watching Tipping Point and immediately feeling smarter, most of the contestants on there I wouldn't trust to cross the road unaided.

I got the stages of the plane journey right when none of the other teams did and I reckon I celebrated just as hard as I did for Wrights equaliser on Saturday!

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Used to really like watching Who Wants to be a Millionaire but got frustrated that there would basically never be science questions

 

[Bertola]

Late to the party, but started Slow Horses last week. Completd the first series. Incredible TV

"What's this famous structure? (Shows a photo of the Eiffel Tower) Is it

A. The Eiffel Tower
B. The Tower of London
Or
C. Biggleswade Methodist Central Hall spire?"

"C!"

S5 starting next Wednesday.

Yeah thats why we've finally got cracking.... We can binge the first 4 series and then get straight into the 5th

I've sent off Applications to get on Beat the Chasers and who wants to be a millionaire , Hoping to hear from them

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Fingers crossed you get a load of questions about booze!

 

[Sky_Blue_Daz]

I had a look at a forum regarding The Chase and Beat the chasers they reckon about 80.000 people apply a year and they only pick roughly 800 , so i won't be holding out much hope

 

[ajsccfc]

I like to think I'd get to 32000 on Millionaire and at least the head to head semi final on Pointless. On the Chase I reckon I'd be too tempted to go for the big prize and be sent packing.

(Gladiators I'd knock them all out obviously, double hard bastard)

 

[AOM]

The thing with Pointless is it seems contestants are there for like a week and the winnings are about £2000.
Limitless Win on ITV is what I'd want to be getting on purely for winnings. Get one or two questions right and you're already on five figures

 

[AOM]

You should also try watching 'The Tournament' on BBC with Alex Scott. Really strange show and some of the contestants definitely aren't all there. Especially when they have to do an opening one liner each

How much can you win on that then?

 

[AOM]

I think it literally is limitless, but I imagine ITV producers will be getting snipers out if they get too high!
The most someone has won so far is a million I think

They are taking applications for limitless win too mate

Oh bloody hell I know the one, they had to do some kind of UFC staredown smack talk before their round and really it's not quite the same when a dowdy housewife is giving it loads to a nerdy shut-in.

Another daytime TV one is Bridge of Lies with Ross Kemp and his permanently arched eyebrows, you can excuse one person unfortunately getting a subject they're not familiar with but for the final they're all conferring and you realise a lot of people are thick as mince.
