What's a point of having the questions quicker if Chris Tarrant is still going to do all that inane chatter inbetween?

EDIT: OOPS! Another thread posted a minute before me. Please merge, mods.

    LOVE the new format, one of the reasons I stopped watching was it was so boring where everyone got like 5mins per answer even for the ridiculously easy ones at the start...

    ill start watching again now loving it :)

    Very dumbed down. I agree Celador has jumped the shark.

    Alright so now we're getting "behind the contestants" nonsense to somehow make us feel more emotionally connected to the contestant.

    So this guy has a child who has down's syndrome. Okay, he's probably trying to get money to help his child out, fair play to him.

    Do we really need to see a video clip of aforementioned child in an attempt to manipulate our feelings?

    Maybe it's just me but I don't really care about the contestant's stories - I just like trying to answer questions and laughing at the contestants giving terrible answers!

    so have they stopped doing fastest finger first and started doing stupidest sob story first instead?

    the show was in need of a revamp but it's gone from being insanely slow and long-winded to feeling rushed.

    Agree. For the stranger phone a friend they should have contestant decide whether person on phone was lying, and they get money if contestant answers wrong! :D

    I also thought it was vaguely creepy that she had a guy she had never met and he didn't submit a picture for the show.:confused:

    Conspiracy!:eek:

    Well the new format is giving us a few laughs at least!

    Although I'm not entirely sure that's what CPL had in mind. Think they wanted something a bit more tense...

    It's all too rushed.

    Not watchable at all.

    ITV must be wanting to get rid of this programme, just like they did with The Bill. Turn it from an enjoyable programme into a hotch-potch and drive the viewers away.

    I can't stop looking at the gaps in her teeth. Its really quite off-putting. She could have sorted them before she came on. It would have been the decent thing to do.

    Format is pretty much OK, it's the bloody sob-stories that piss me off.

    Do they still have the timer for the final question?
