Re: pointless

What annoys me is not being able to see the questions, you no sooner start to look at the list & the ruddy camera changes to a contestant. Very annoying, then he says at the end of that session, we will go through the answers as a lot of people play along at home, then praises those who got a lot pointless. For goodness sake let us see the ruddy questions first.

Re: pointless

Yeh I quite enjoy it. Been to two recordings. If I am worried about the contestants in The Chase, I'll turn over to BBC!

I watch Pointless till six while preparing my dinner Jazzi, then turn over to Beeb 2 for Eggheads while I eat my dinner, and then change to channel 33 and watch the last half hour of The Chase......While I wash the pots....

Re: pointless

I also watch Eggheads! Did you like the celebrity editions recently?

When The Chase players only have a small number of points, or they get a lot of questions wrong, I just know they are going to lose. That's when I turn over to the last bit of Pointless. However, if I think they are on a winning streak I'll watch till the end.

Another reason why I don't watch it.

Re: pointless

I watched it yesterday for the first time, just to see what's you're all on about.
I didn't like Alexander Armstrong's attitude, seemed a bit sarcastic.
The questions at the end were practically impossible to answer.
I felt sorry for the contestants not getting anything at all.
If it was a prize for the highest levels it would be better.
I don't know why anyone bothers to go on there!


This is why I don't watch quiz shows

If they don't win the money they get a nice plastic trophy to take home to show they did win.

I only watch it if the antique type progs aren't on the other channels.

Re: pointless

We gave 100 people 100 seconds to say what they would do with the money if they won.

Easy-spend it. 1 second

Yes they were entertaining Jazzi, but not very bright, I think that only one lot won, and I had trouble recognizing most of them as celebrities.
They seem to be showing some old ones just lately, Daphne left ages ago, and they always used to announced their age - some of them didn't age well! - but now they don't.....
