Why Do Contestants On Tipping Point Always Say They've Had A Lovely Day?

[Sarni007]

Are they told to say thast, or do they really have a lovely time and if so, why?

[ummmm]

Because they are put up in a hotel and get catered for...maybe.

They may be under the impression that they've had a day at the seaside topped off by playing the penny falls machine viewed through a giant magnifying glass.

Or

They're just easily pleased.

Everybody says that on a quiz show, surely ....

[Cloverjo]

I guess they are looked after, fed and watered and chat to new people.
However, OH was on a quiz show some years back, and I'm not sure if he would have said it had been lovely day. Quite interesting, but not all that great.

[Samuraisan]

We thought the same thing. But there again, maybe they did have a lovely day and don't mind that they lost.

I suppose if you make it through to the final round and win approximately £3 500 you could say that it was a lovely day!
