quiz show Q

[steve208]

Does anyone remember 15 to 1 ? and more importantly i would love to know why it finished. I loved it as aside from mastermind it was prob the most intelligent quiz show on tv!

Good old William G Stewart. Good concept, and a shame it was stopped (no idea here)

The down side was this show spawned the dreaded Daphne from Eggheads

Yes, I remember it well, along with dear old dustybin. What is Ted Rogers doing now? I heard he was making a comeback with Masterbrain.

Why is Daphne "dreaded"?

Ted snuffed it a couple of years ago

Or are you taking a p1$$ that I cannot appreciate?

I loved it, much better than Countdown (and certainlky Deal or No Deal) in my opinion. I loved it when the voiceover woman got her moment of glory at the end of the series by presenting the winner with their trophy. Brilliant show.

I was under the impression that the complete t0$$�r on Fifteen to One was G0rd0n Mck�ag, because he made a habit of given ambiguous answers to questions, so that a prompt from Bill would lead him to the correct alternative, or at least stop someone else from answering.

15 to 1 is repeated on Sky Challange, channel 121, if you want to watch some of the old shows.

Sorry to divert your thread Steve, in answer to Shammy's question, Daphne is a very clever lady but she is so goddam smug with it. Also when someone else says the right answer she nods her head so much it looks like it falls off. Finally, when she knows the answer and one of the other Eggheads doesn't she looks like she's fit to burst. But as I said, she is very clever.........
