The Chase Celebrity Special

[grumpy01]

If ever evidence was needed that The Chase Celebrity Special is Fixed Paul Sinha's last answer gives it away.

[Gizmonster]

I missed it, so please elaborate :)

where is St Moritz.. he said France

[grumpy01]

For Gizmonster,with only a few seconds left and one to win he had the question, in which country is St Moritz he answered France when 80 per cent of the country know its in Switzerland.

//// where is St Moritz.. he said France ////

..... oh dear.
I can fully understand your average Joe Bloggs not knowing, but this is surely bread and butter to a chaser??

[Sipowicz]

He slipped up there!

[Tilly2]

It's for charity.

Do you 67.3% of statistics are made up on the spot?

[fiction-factory]

I didn't know where St Moritz is. But we're all in 20% of something

I'm no fan of Paul Sinha (see previous posts) but which of the Chasers would want to be seen effectively taking money from a charity? The idea of a celebrity version of this programme is seriously flawed for that reason.

[Caribeing]

Was shocked as well that he didn’t know that St Moritz was in Switzerland wonder would he have known it if the previous contestant had won the big money and it was a large amount in the pot!

[chrissa1]

I sort of agree but, I’ve seen quite a few celeb progs where the celebs have, been beaten.

I think it’s very unfair to ask a medical question when the Sinhaman is a qualified doctor.

[vetuste_ennemi]

He may, or may not have been charitably forgetful about St. Moritz, but the celeb (whom I don't know) was pretty good, wasn't she?

"I think it’s very unfair to ask a medical question when the Sinhaman is a qualified doctor."

I have heard and seen him get a medical question wrong.

[chrissa1]

Me too, sqad but he’s got a helluva lot more of a chance of getting a question right, than Joe Soap in the team.

They never ask questions about the law when the Dark Destroyer is on.

I'm not sure why everyone thinks knowing the location of St Moritz is a given. I also thought France and unless you're into skiing I don't see why everyone should know it, it's not an everyday kind of place.

[choux]

You never smoked a St Moritz Prudie?

[Prudie]

Oh yes I did, how elegant were they with their gold band...

[choux]

Weren't they just.

[chrissa1]

What about, Passing Cloud?

[goodgoalie]

Oval-shaped weren't they, chrissa? Used to buy them at Christmas as presents - I think they had the Laughing Cavalier on the front, with a lift-up front to the packet. Also used to buy Sweet Afton.
