I remember hearing she was on the first Going for Gold, but I also just saw a very old episode of Bullseye (series 1 on Challenge TV) and there is a woman with a lisp, and I thought she sounded a lot like Daphne, and then I heard Jim call her Daphne. So I guess this was another show she was on ? She sure got around in the 80's from show to show.

It turned it to be the final of that series, and it was Daphne who won.
And yes, she was really annoying then as well.
The woman is a serial quizzer!
Her shaking her head when the challengers on eggheads are discussing an answer that they may get wrong
Her pretending to take a lucky guess is annoying too, If she genuinely has to guess as often as she pretends then she shouldn't be on the show
Not as punchable as CJ though
She is probably a very sweet lady , and has grandchildren that adore her , but how is it she knows SO much and is SO annoying ??:D
I'm sure Daphne said on the One Show recently that she was planning to retire soon. I think Rachel Niumann the blind girl who has been Only Connect, Mastermind and University Challenge could make a great replacement
Daphne's replacement has already started filming; her name is Lisa Thiel and her first episodes will be shown later in the year.
I love Judith on Eggheads. She appears to be the only normal person there! I think she's funny and when she says she doesn't have a clue on a certain question - she's telling the truth - she isn't being full of false modesty like Daphne (who, I'm not sure if its my telly, but her eyes are as black as coal and are really evil looking!) I also don't like the way she looks down her nose and seems to chatter to CJ when an opponent appears to be going the wrong way on an answer - you'd think they'd throttled a cat the dirty looks she gives.
Agreed, and it's so blatant. Yet Jeremy Vile or Dermot never once called her out on it.
And unfortunately she is even more unlikeable than Daphne!
There's loads to trawl through, can you give us a link??
Never mind, found it.

I don't believe it, she got the simplest of questions wrong. In chess, what is another name for the piece called a Rook. She said pawn!!!!!
She's here at the front of a JV selfie:

She appears at around 9 minutes in.

And she's the same obnoxious person all the way through.

Rachel is one of those people I warmed to at first sight. Didn't know she'd been on OC though. As Victoria Coren pushed herself forward, my interest in OC waned. IIRC Coren got quite flirty with David Stainer. I found that a bit creepy.
just as annoying and arrogant then as he his now
