Since when has The Great Big British Quiz started to be shown on Five overnight

That's all we need, possibly the worst quiz channel of the lot airing on terrestrial

It's nice to see QM giving away some sensible money again - £1000 top answer on the tower game and a new £5000 "Jackpot Game".

The Jackpot's a bit odd though - because you don't have to be a winner to play it. Think... a £5000, Speed Round version of "Beat the Presenter". Confused

EDIT: The Jackpot Game's BLACK _______ tonight, I think.


What was the answer - I fell asleep just before Greggles came on air

Oh my god! Utter cringefest going on at ITV Play at the moment. The so called gremlins have destroyed the graphics on the This Morning Puzzle Book. The programme also went of air and returned with Alison and the other one host having absolutley nothing to do but improvise and try and keep people interested in the game....what game?

They have resorted to now using only clipboards - however the phone number has appeared via CGI again.

ITV needs to get its scheduling sorted out.

The Mint is now on THREE (count them) channels. What is that aupposed to achieve? Rolling Eyes

Since we've bumped this...

Craig has just answered a call on The Mint and a woman said HAND BALL... perfectly innocent. Of course, Craig thought it was something incredibly rude and made her look a complete fool the prat. Rolling Eyes

I didn't see it - but I expect it made him look like the fool, not the caller. Laughing

He always looks a fool - hard to tell. Such an idiot.

I'm not an insomniac, so I have rarely watched ITV Play or anything on that scale, but for some reason I sat through an hour of Quizmania (simulcast on Men & Motors), and bloody hell, I see the appeal of it, Greggles was just cracking me up, especially with some caller telling him he looked like Kirsty someone in his tight England shirt. I was tempted phone up myself, considering how I detest these sort of channels. Laughing

For some reason, whenever anything's aired on ITV Play, the DOG is now sitting top right. However when the same programme is simulcast on ITV1 and/or ITV2, the ITV Play DOG is sitting top left on those channels. So why are ITV generating two different DOGs instead of just feeding the dirty Play feed to ITVx? Wonders will never cease.

Its a great shame to see some failed TV stars slug it out on ITV Play. Mind you i do suppose Play is the creme de la creme of the quiz channels. I mean look at the old studio disney crew, one is now on quizmania, the other on thismorning puzzle book, and one started off on the Great british quiz i think, worked his way to ftn and now hes hit the big time with itv play. Also, paul hendy hes another great presentor wasted on ITV play, still its a promotion up from quizcall. Oh and btw The hits have joined the club with there own quiz programme, when will OFCOM see sense......
