Thanks for this but is there any chance that someone can convert it into .3gp for me so I can view it on my phone.


may I enquire as to why you wish to watch the end of quizmania on your phone?


I'd like to know why anyone would want to watch videoclips of anything on the miniscule screen of a cellphone!

We haven't seen the accounts and William Van whatever he's called will have had his reasons for axing the show

Obviously some people just said that it was crappy call TV and lumped it in with all the poor ones like TGBBQ and Quiz Call, without actually seeing it.

Maybe they could have some how renamed or repositioned Quizmania so it was obvious that there was no dodgy behaviour and constant demands for people to call going on

It does seem strange how ITV Play has totally fallen apart in less than a year. It's like the natural life of a TV channel, but in double quick time


Proof if proof be needed that even with the oldest commerical broadcaster in the UK behind the channel it will still struggle

Greg will make Play DJ his own - or attempt his best to. I don't even understand what its all about anyway. It seems a glorified Playalong to me. Good luck to him.

Just seen 10 minutes of Play DJ with QM's own Nigel!!!!!

It is absoultely dire. How on earth could ITV let this tripe through the quality threshold and on air??????



I think they need a quality threshold first!


It's even worse than the Rovers Return Quiz thing though - which so far IMO had been ITV's worst effort of the year.

And it's managing to ruin one of ITV Playalong - which works far better with the pre-recorded looped voiceover!


I don't think ITV Play will last much longer as a channel - they'll keep the brand for overnight stuff, and perhaps if they launch a movie channel broadcast some content in their downtime, but otherwise I can't see it lasting much longer.

Arrghh! I can't stand the constant pauses...

"And its after this.............................................................................................So..................................................................................What is this then?......................."

Camera quality is slightly webcamish as well.
Someone should have a username BringBackQuizmania!

Laughing & Sad I can see that question being asked for a long time, not as if ITV listen or even care

don't send any txt messages to Play DJ that contain QM, Quizmania, Greg, Greggles, DEbbie etc - they are all being rejected - They have even deleted my own nickname (amoscqm100) to Siri12.

PURE CENSORSHIP - not wanting any backlash over the loss of a real popular show! (well compared to the rest of the tripe under the ITV PLay banner!!)

I wasn't even saying anything negative about either QM or PlayDJ, either!!!!!

I saw a "Yakkabakkas - Hope I spelt it right" appear. Of course, Nigel completely skipped that message.

Oh ffs Bring back Quizmania! Mad

I have a feeling they *may* spend a bit more money on Play DJ soon, I caught a few minutes the other day and they were discussing how they are going to be using another part of the studio from Wednesday. I reckon they'll try to copy the QM format.
