Ah! This is what the BBC have lined up for the next week?! What is the point of this show...4 Z List "celebrities" get challenged by a studio audience, and then the "smartass" (AKA the one that didn't lose all 3 lifes...Wonder where that idea came from!) has to answer 10 questions correctly within 90 seconds to prove they are smarter than the audience. Hurrah. No prize at stake either Sad. Why couldn't they show this while I was on holiday?! Evil or Very Mad

I didn't manage to see the show, but it doesn't really look that good, but if they keep producing stuff like this (Treasure Hunt is quite good) the BBC are going to struggle at 6pm weekdays when The Simpsons goes to Channel 4. Though I have to admit it is nice having a home made alternative at 6pm, other than News, Home and Away, Hollyoaks and any American imports. Though you can't blame the BBC for trying? Otherwise it would probably be endless Fresh Prince. Laughing

The only reason I watched this today was becase I saw Jo Brand was presenting it. Thought it'd be funny...how wrong I was!

How fake did that audience sound with their 'oohs!' and 'aahs!'. I agree - it was utter sh*te. The whole plot seemed amateurish and it looked very pilotty. I doubt it will stay on screen for long...I hope! Evil or Very Mad

One of the most low budget quiz shows I've ever seen!
Do you think they downloaded the music off a royalty free website? Very Happy

I only watched it, also, because Jo Brand was hosting.

Oh well.

OMG! The BBC decided "Oh no! This has to fit into a 20 minute slot (It actually lasts more like 25 minutes) so they decided to save time by letting 2 "smartarses" prove themselves. Awful! Many other people share my opinion on the PoV message board Wink

I am missing by 6:00pm dose of The Simpsons. How long does this stupid show last?

Ah, thank goodness - Cheers Dan!

Does anybody know when The Simpsons move from BBC2 to Channel 4?

I believe that the Simpsons begins on Channel 4 in 2004 and it finishes on BBC 2 in 2006, so plenty of time for the beeb to feed us more of this kind of crap!

So, will we get two doses of The Simpons then, potentially?
