100,000 Pound Challenge-Two Dumb Contestants

[gollob]

The question was which of these confectionery places are closest to London
(a) Black forest Gateau (b) Dundee cake (c) Madiera Cake
After thinking Madiera was in Spain they split all their money between Madiera and Black Forest
How to these people ever pass a general knowledge interview

Good job you're not entering the spelling challenge then, gollob - try removing the beam from your own eye before disparaging others ...

MADEIRA

a/b at its best ;-)

Wasn't this programme originally The Million Pound Drop?

[Mamyalynne]

Must be inflation for you... err... wait a minute...

GOLLOB, I take it you'll be applying to take part in the programme?

[gollob]

I actually went to an interview for the MPD before it ever shown on TV
Then they did not know if it would be for pairs or individuals. There were about 40 people at the auditions and I played three games and reached the final once and twice got knocked out very early. Of these 40 I never saw one on the show when they started showing it live

the Black Forest isn't that much further from London than Dundee is. Admittedly, Madeira is some way further off.
