I have been watching Quizmania since it started but recently grew bored of the presenters (apart from Greg and Lee) but now Kirsty Duffy has started as a presenter I really enjoy it she is a lot better than Debbie King


I never thought I'd read the words Kirsty, Duffy, and Better in the same post. Last night she turned up looking like some sort of cavewoman, without a clue how any of the games worked or what the "in jokes" were... it was painful.

She didn't even know what most of the team's names were! Fine, she's not been on for a while - but she could have made an effort! Shocked

There's number confusion again. A guy just phoned Quizmania with the answer Ricky Gervais. The question is WATER______ Rolling Eyes

The Mint is ruining QM. Haven't seen our Greggles on it since it moved to ITV2.

Haha yes. The topic of the quiz on QM just then was school lessons... and someone suggested Les Dennis.

Brilliant!

Surely the question begs why are you actually giving any credence to these online petitions ?

Whether or not these petitions have any effect, they can at least gauge a sample of public opinion.

all new Phil - spare me the cheap shots - heard it all before.

It wasn't a cheap shot. You asked a question and I answered it honestly. What did you expect the reply to be?!

This isn't exclusively an ITV problem, watch other quiz channels and you'll find people ringing up with seemingly random answers, presumably meant for another channel.

It's the thickos who are incapable of dialing the number of the channel they are watching or even bothering to play in the first place.

You've got a point there. Also people tend to store the phone number in their phone and ring when they think its on - BEFORE they've even switched on their TV!

I reckon tonights presenters are Chuck Thomas then Kirsty Duffy.

It's a shame, as these are the people that are keeping these channels alive.

The target audience DID care, and I will be happy to prove it.

But let's keep this thread on topic and end this discussion here.

Lol, how convenient. What nonsense you talk.

So trying to keep this thread on topic (and keep the peace!) is talking nonsense, is it?

If Phil wants to take his discussion further he's perfectly entitled to start another thread; this one isn't the place, that's all.

I think you do tend to stir the situation rather than keep the peace.


Anyway, Greggles is back on QM next week.
