    The team did not play well as a team. The teacher was too quick to buzz and say pass.

    They didn't have a plan.

    Ok, let's make this clear now. JOCELYN HAS TO TAKE THE LOW OFFER. It's not even a decision.

    Agree, even if the low offer is -£5K they would still get £15K each

    Another awful decision. These people never learn.

    Why on earth did he pass on the honours question? Have a guess, man!

    George is passing too easily e.g. the Newfoundland = dog and no. of horses = 4

    £15,333 each or £18,333 each. Not worth the risk of being a step closer to the chaser to add less than 20% to your winnings. Silly. £50,000 was an option but £5,000 was not an option at all. Very poor decision.

    She got through, so it was a good decision.

    No, no, no, no, no. That's a common mistake. You can't decide AFTER the outcome is known whether something was a good decision or not. You can only judge a decision on the information available at the time of the decision. As explained above, it's not worth the risk, £15,333 to £18,333 for one step closer to the chaser.

    I thought George was too confident and so used to being right that he didn't give the others a chance to offer an answer when he didn't know it.

    George was quite clever but some of his passes in the final chase were inexcusable

    "what creature is a [thing that sounds like a fish]?", "pass"
    "how many times is the honours list published?", "pass"
    "the [something something] is a breed of what?", "pass" ('breed' means dog is the obvious guess and happens to be the correct answer also)

    Yes. George ( The £46K man ) thought he was playing by himself. >:(

    The fish question begin "without scales" or "with no scales" or something like that, which was a big clue to the answer.

    But IMHO Anne deserved to win today just for knowing which planet the Transformers come from.:D

    Was it a repeat today? Coz I found this on Youtube about a month ago

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f3ArvLptuz8

    Though that one seems longer, and it says Youtube Exclusive, so I guess it was from when it was filmed? Like I said it seemed longer, so I guess it wasn't edited yet.

    I'm not really a big fan of the show or Bradley Walsh but the outtakes on youtube are brilliant.

    Just looking at those Christmas specials on YouTube with Mark as The Grinch. I don't remember them at all. What year was that?

    He reminded me of that woman a few weeks ago. The one that had written a book. They both had that irritating air of overconfidence. Even before they both messed up in the final.

    A good quizzer should know that any time you get a question that starts "What type of creature is a ...", and you've never heard of it,ninety percent of the time it's a fish or a bird. I mean it's not going to be antelope or something.

    Unless the answer is eland, kudu, impala etc:)

    Other useful "default" answers:
    "Which military leader said..." : Napoleon
    "Which famous scientist said..." : Newton or Einstein
    "Which Spice Girl..." : Geri Halliwell
    "Which member of Girls Aloud..." : Cheryl Cole
    and so on.
