I certainly wouldn't disagree with that, Rodo.

I love this programme and have it set to series record in case I miss an episode. The banter is just wonderful and Richard can slip in the occasional insult in such a charming way that it's hardly noticed. Did you see the celebrity version with a self important prat from The Apprentice?

We rarely miss a programme, and enjoy taking part.

I agree. though, that Alexander's banter is somewhat repetitive, and it does make me cringe when
he keeps saying, "We have GOT".

The prize money's up to £19,000 :shock:
I do always think whoever wins deserves it though, it comes down to some very specialised trivial knowledge :D

Either way round is good WM :D
You have to be either a complete geek or pub quiz fiend I think, although once in a while it's 'genuine' knowledge :)
We're always thrilled if we get a pointless answer for the final, what does that make us? :D

For anyone who missed it and will be watching I won't spoil it, it's cheating if you know the question in advance ;) :D
