Has anyone on here been on the show? I often get the feeling that the players have been given the questions beforehand and are so able to select the best question for each player in advance. The last player before the captain often gets one suited to his interests. I am not saying it is fixed I am just interested.
I think the topics are chosen with consideration to the contestants, I assume they have to declare some interests when they apply. If they asked me for some of the topics I'd be dumbstruck but I've always done well on PMs and US Presidents.
