Tenable

This is a deceptively difficult quiz. If it happens to be on I don't turn over and enjoy trying to get some of the answers.

Each question has a list of 10 correct answers. The difficulty of the questions vary hugely.

Out of a team of 5 only the captain is guaranteed a place in the final round. To get to the final round each team member must supply at least 5 correct answers in an individual round. The host sets the question and the captain chooses who in the team is best to answer, but only one round each. Each person can give one wrong answer but another wrong answer will see them eliminated. The team captain has a couple of chances to overrule an answer they think is wrong, plus a couple of opportunities for the team members to nominate a teammate to supply an answer should they need some inspiration. The more correct answers the more money in the prize fund, a total of £125,000 is possible. The team captain is guaranteed a place in the final round, they still need to get 5 answers to start adding to the prize fund. Instead of adding to the price fund the captain can choose to bring back someone who has been eliminated to join them in the final round.

The final round is next to impossible. One (usually very complicated) question is posed, again a list of 10 answers. This time, starting with the team captain, each player takes it in turn to give an answer. Give a wrong answer and that person is eliminated. Only all 10 correct answers will win the money - there are only 10 answers. I have seen many episodes and only recall one team winning the final round.

I'm now off to research how many winners there have actually been.....

There's no doubt the hero of the show is Warwick Davis and his jokes, and I'm sure he would just love reading that sentence (And Yes Willow... I mean ... Warwick...you are also my favourite Harry Potter and Star Wars actor).

As for the show itself, aside from its host, compared to the other ITV game shows the questions are the most obscure. It can make for a very interesting watch where if you are not from the UK you can learn some things you wouldn't know otherwise, or you learn things you couldnt care less to know about and you have no chance playing alongside at home. The shows greatest weakness for me is just how many "tenable" answers you even need to add 1000 pounds to the prize fund. With how random some of the questions are it can be nearly impossible. However the worst part of the show is you can answer every question right and get the absolute most random question imaginable in the final and be forced to leave with nothing.

The overall cash amount they seem to send out per episode feels rather low.

Still , in terms of something to keep you busy while using your brain, the show is serviceable.

My hubby and I love watching this as it's great for brain training, however it would be even better if there was a split screen showing the board whilst the camera is on the contestant

Not a bad format for a game, but where did they get the contestants???

Presumably they regard themselves as pretty good at general knowledge, but in one round they were asked to name the last ten British monarchs, and one player guessed Elizabeth the Third!

In another game they had to name the ten US states which have a land border with Canada. First three answers: Alaska (correct), New Orleans and Seattle!

If you like to laugh at pig ignorance then this is the show for you!

I have watched every single episode and thoroughly enjoy this show. Warrick Davis is a brilliant host, who adds the right level of humour to the show. Playing along at home is fun too, especially when a category comes up that you know. Overall, a great show that doesn't get enough recognition.

The app game is really good too, so would recommend that.
