Was Big Fat Quiz Rather Odd?

[dance2trance]

Usually fun but dull and irritating this year.

Mel's ersatz behaviour and almost demented babbling about cross rail and pic nic and gag walk out. Post job loss trauma? Sarah's clear irritation at Mel in light of her greater talent, David's endless lack lustre contradictions on the meaning! Oh what fun! NO! like a squeaky wheel here filling in air time, Richard's dead in the water geek character 'i'm so bored' is not amusing - give us a break he has been doing that gig for years now! Plus the snide and nasty attack on the man from Made in Chelsea by the 'we don't understand you cos we is just working class people not like you toffs' panel - none of whom have incomes of less than £500,00 per year. Jimmy held it all together though with consulate skill.

I only watched a few minutes of it. I have watched in previous years, and found it at least an hour too long.

This time I was watching with OH and he has little tolerance for rubbish or people he doesn't like. He can't stand Sarah or Jimmy.

To be honest I couldn't face 2 hours of inanity, so I switched off. I agree with you about Richard. It's getting a bit tedious now.

£500,00 per year is less than a tenner a week, and the problem is?

[SherryBea]

£500,00 / 52 = £961.53 per week

[Cloverjo]

I think we all know the OP left a zero off.

[Baldric]

Sherry, really?
have another look.

Consulate skill is absolutely menthol.

[SherryBea]

Baldric, I'm right, forget the comma position and read the noughts.

500,00 = five hundred(comma) hundreds.

500 x 100 = 50,000 (fifty thousand)

50,000/52 = 961.5384615

has consulate skill got anything to do with Ferrero Rocher?

[Lie-in King]

I enjoyed it, far less anarchic than previous years, much more watchable.

[gollob]

just two hours of pure rubbish
