The show itself is watchable, but ruined by the presenter's stilted delivery, leaving a pause between each word, as if trying to use up the time.
Lingo is an enjoyable idea for an afternoon game show spoiled by Adil Ray's awkward presentation with hands in pockets or arms folded. This is such bad manners. It is so rude and disrespectful as well as distracting. Also his false loud laugh and repetitive phrases become very grating. His loudly proclaimed "Ooh hello" when anyone gets something right quickly is also very irritating. He makes a huge fuss about the money even if it is a paltry amount. He has relaxed a bit but still just doesn't know what to with his hands and shifts around from foot to foot. But the worst thing are the hands, especially in his pockets or with arms folded.
What a rubbish show. It's the only show l have seen where you have to win the full amount again. Get to the final & have your winnings cut in half & your the winner's.
More suited to kids tv. Awful stilted host. Hands in pockets!! Big yawn.
Right, what is going on in with Adil Ray, he's in sitcoms, he's presenting GMB, and now he's hosting this awful game show?
Adil Ray, funny, clever, and smart, but a presenter, just no, what a waste of his talents.
This is another in the line of terrible quiz shows, nothing new seems to hold a candle to the likes of The Chase and The Weakest link.
The hope is when you watch some of these shows you may learn something, I fear this will encourage the loss of cells. Really though, it's not good. 2/10.
Adil please put your talents to good use, your way better than this.
