Great set and idea but I found it incredibly slow and a bit unpolished. Yet another gameshow that would have worked better and felt more exciting as a 30 minute production, that’s all the game took to play, the rest was just filler!

There’s a lot of fat to trim, and the speed the celebrities spin at (at least on the GoPro shot) is motion sickness inducing to me at least - but - enjoyable overall.
If this does continue I really hope

from DOND - it’s bloody random, just get on with it.
The real positive for me was it was a socially distanced show that made no mention of it. There was no real obvious sign of needing to adjust it - it felt normal from that point.
It was rather slow and padded, and no matter how much I try, I just can't warm to McIntyre's hosting or 'comedy' style so don't think I'll bother tuning in next week.
If every question is answered correctly first time, that means there's only 8 questions asked in total over the entire hour programme! The rest is filler. If someone wins and there's plenty of time left do they play again and have a rollover contestant or is it only ever one winner per episode, because if it is only one and they are clever enough the show could be over very quickly and they have to add a lot of guff to fill up that 60 minute time slot.

I think that is more by accident than design. The design couldn't be much smaller really.
Be nicer and more tolerant to each other. Them's the rules.
I like the basic idea of the format, with one of the celebrities being an expert in each topic and the random choice of who helps, and it was a nicely broad mix of celebs in the first episode, but agree that the pace of questions was far too slow.
