So, this is basically a meeting of 2 factors; X and Krypton.

Not sure if it's lowbrow attempting to be highbrow or vice versa.

They would all be in trouble if that panel included Sinitta.

And yes, it is a 2013 Krypton Factor.

Claire Balding is better than this. Was Richard Hammond busy when they were filming?

I thought I'd give this a chance as it might be a decent intelligence based quiz show.... They couldn't have chosen a worse game to start with an utter trash age guessing game!

Balding doing nothing to dispel the dumbed down britain theory.

Define "Brightest" ?

The Brightest in Britain would not entertain this type of drivel and humiliate themselves by association with it.

So point of programme lost immediately.

I have quite a few Portuguese friends and they all sound stoned when speaking English.

Mr 9 A*'s at GCSE is no different.
