The 1% Club

ITV's latest game show off the production line, and actually this wasn't half bad.

In Lee Mack you have a host that can actually give the contestants a bit of lip back, and the format isn't needlessly complicated (hi 'Limitless Win').

It's a bit slow, and won't be for everyone, but I enjoyed what I saw and hope it does well.

I greatly enjoyed Season 1 with Patton Oswalt as tge host. Now in season 2 the have a new host Joel McHale. If I wanted to watch Johnny Knoxvilles twin, I would watch Jackass. FOX, I enjoy the show, but Joel needs to go.

You had an epic season and success with the show. With the return starting June 10, 2025. The host has no contestant personality. It was a mix of watching Jane Lynch and Johnny Knoxville. The host's personality was very disappointing and not appealing at all. If this continues through the second season, it will the finally and end of the 1% Club game show. From a concern fan.

I like Lee Mack's humour but his being a host of a game show? It would not be an easy show to make funny as many of the gags are spontaneous, something right up his street.

I have watched the first episode and both myself and my wife enjoyed it. The questions are varied and lateral thinking is helpful for some of them. It is not to be taken too seriously and for those wanting a serious IQ show will be disappointed. Entertainment is the whole point of the show.

I did feel sorry for those who lost out early on an had to sit through the whole show but they must have known the format beforehand.

Which two letters complete this sequence?

T N E C R E P E

On a digital 24-clock that displays hours, minutes and seconds, how many times in each 24-hour period do all six digits change simultaneously?

These two questions were not featured on high brow quizzes like 'Only Connect' or 'University Challenge'. Instead they were on a new prime time Saturday evening game show on Britain's biggest commercial TV channel, if you please. Scarcely credible really.

'The 1% Club' is clearly something a bit different. It certainly includes all the elements of a successful game show.

1) Easy to follow format 2) Witty and likeable host 3) Great interaction with contestants 4) Exciting climax to the show.

What separates it out from the crowd are the questions, which stay away from general knowledge. Instead there are logic and reasoning problems, that become more challenging as the show progresses. You can play along at home, and even discuss questions with friends and work colleagues later in the week. 'The 1% Club' deserves to be successful and I just hope it finds an audience.

By the way the answer to the two questions are:- A) N O B) 3 times during the day.

And if you got both of those correct you are clearly in 'The 1% Club' and will surely enjoy this breath of fresh air to Saturday evening TV.

Absolutely love this programme. Great format, well presented and produced. Very inclusive, as everyone can give it a go! Fantastic entertainment! Loads of fun to play as a family at home. What about an 'app' version?!
