[JimF]

Did you win your episode?

[piggynose]

[grumpy01]

Just watching today’s episode and there was a question about surname of composer wrote the Nutcracker.A young fellow said Tarkowski(a fair guessI suppose) then an actor had a go and said Tolstoy.

Gormless!! And studying for Masters too!!
I think Kazeem takes the prize!!!

[grumpy01]

Spot on Sharon.

[ummmm]

More judgemental guff. I can't stand opera or ballet so why would I read up on it?

[-SharonA-]

Come on Ummmm. Most folks are familiar with some classics.

/// Most folks are familiar with some classics.///

Most, not all, and the ones who are not familiar with the classics aren't necessarily morons.

[Mamyalynne]

I'd have to stop watching quiz/game shows if I got incensed at wrong answers.

[grumpy01]

It’s not wrong answers it’s stupid answers.

[elliemay1]

I hate on The Chase when they pass on a qn where they could guess and perhaps get it right e.g Which sport...?

[puzzled54]

I think maybe grumpys point is that they didn’t have to answer that question, there was a choice of 6 and they obviously didn’t know any of them

[ummmm]

Sharon - Know a few opera songs and singers but I could tell you who wrote them. I'm far from a moron.

My great granddad couldn't read or write very well but he was a master carpenter. That takes intelligence AND skill.. Peoples brains work in different ways.

[roopower]

Question. Why do you watch? Is it just so you can have a moan?

[grumpy01]

No,I like the programme but surely there must be some sort of audition.You had the couples who dropped out and then the jackpot winners with three pointless answers.

[naomi24]

When people are under pressure it’s easy to make mistakes abs to come up with daft answers. That said, I do think the standard of general knowledge now is pretty appalling.

[Peter Pedant]

for the elements atomic no < 80
I wd have gone for Tritium or Deuterium...
and the arteest wivva crater on Mars - Van Gogh - and he scored !
oops
Ingres, David - 160 pointless

[DTCwordfan]

I didn't know that Ingres reached 160 - hell of an age - can Her Maj match that?

[Peter Pedant]

er have frequent dinners and picnics not wearing a lodda clothes?

Ingres did do Dejeuner sur l'herbe innit?

I think her maj is near to thinking 93 is enough
