I truly think CJ thinks his coolness and snootyness is ironic and that people see this. But he doesn't pull this off at all. He's just dislikeable.
This season has about 30 episodes left - which is just 6 weeks in real terms - til CJ goes. Whoopie.
This is very true. CJ is a desperately sad human being. When his 'acting' (hahahahahahahahaha) career has stalled horribly, he will have nothing left . . .
Yes Judith won millionaire and well done to her for that BUT she got lucky with the questions on the day They could have easily had a question regarding a sport or music that day that she had no knowledge of, and she'd have been out and most probably never to be seen again
Twas a brilliant television moment the other evening, Big head CJ was telling everyone of an accident he had a while back which layed him up for a month or so when he hurt his foot. Without a second thought, Jeremy Vine said "what happened, did you fall over your ego" What a laugh that gave us. CJ didn't look too pleased.
I could kiss Jeremy for that.

Do the Eggheads really need another top quizer. Having CJ at least gave the contestants more of a chance.
Probably not.
I didn't find Dave as entertaining as many other people seemed to on AYAE, so to me he's neither elite nor light relief, but I hope he grows on me.
I think going for a top player who has an abrasive personality would have worked better, with CJ going they might lack a hate magnet. My 1st choice,though would have been someone with Chris style big strengths and big weaknesses.

I didn't find David Rainford entertaining at all. He gave very long-winded answers. If it was diversity-based appointment, then i wish BBC had managed to poach Shaun Wallace off of the Chaser, he's a lot more charismatic and down-to-earth.
Comments
She's pretty good on Science and History, and alright on Geography, but she hardly ever gets picked for those subjects nowadays.
Even I beat Judith when we were on it
When she does not know she answer, she never tries to work it out. She just says anything.
She learns lists like CJ.
When we were on it Daphne was an absolute delight, she was a very sweet lady and came to tell me that in our audition I took on her cousin apparently.
Kevin was the nicest, very humble, he almost seems apologetic that he knows what he knows. Very gracious to us.
Just as I suspected. I don't know why people say he's dull
Yes, this doesn't surprise me either. Good riddance to the odious CJ. He is vile.:eek:

CJ's funniest thing is trying to place himself in people's eyeline when he's out, hoping to get recognised.

Cool. Who is s/he?
I could kiss Jeremy for that.
I saw that too.
It seems to be David Rainford from Are You An Egghead?.
He did well in that losing in semis to Barry and qf to David Edwards.
Based on his overall quizzing pedigree I reckon he's not up to Barry's standards but better than CJ and Judith, as a minimum.
He should be popular IMO. I assume the AYAE background helped get him chosen, as it made him a known quantity.

His episodes end in 2011.
Apparently this new run of 80 episodes that started last week was recorded last year. So another few months of CJ yet ...
His play ('Guilty Pleasures') has been cancelled.
He is on Pointless Celebrities Saturday 28th.
