    Totally agree, it's dire.
    What were the BBC thinking? Can't see there being a second series of this tripe.

    The BBC should have bought the rights to Splash! That would have been better...

    This must have cost a lot to make.

    It's really s l o w.

    Hard to imagine how you could make what potentially sounded like a good format so boring.

    A big disappointment.

    The premise isn't bad. One partner doing scary stunts abroad, the other answering quiz questions in the studio. But the way it's being presented just doesn't seem to work. I suppose it needed the challenges to be "live" to create any thrills, which was just impossible.

    Don't think it even needs that. If the 'challenges' were remotely absorbing to watch, if they could just stop dragging everything out, and cut out all the sickly 'emotional' rubbish, they might have something to work with, but sadly those last two seem obligatory for any of these sort of shows these days

    Second series? If they had any sense there wouldn't be a second episode!

    The problem is, as I said, ITV has given up already with more Harry Potter repeats which fill the whole evening....

    This the BBCs big game show to entertain us on Saturday evenings. What a load of ball cocks. I'm doing it for my family

    Back in the day this would have been a 30 min fast paced show, but now they just want to fill the schedules.....

    Thankfully next Saturday I'm at a house party. Unfortunately I'm covering work from home this weekend so I can't even drink to the point where this becomes mildly entertaining...

    These video messages home feel more like a hostage plea than a video on a game show

    If this was Channel 5, next weeks episode would be on at 1:30am on Monday morning.

    they do that with programmes that bomb on their first episode, never to be seen again.

    If she has BBC Three, she's probably seen the film 4 times this week.

    I am having to endure this. Seems more like a ITV show.

    There's a thread somewhere about 'Long forgotten quiz shows from the past'

    This time next year this will be on it..

    "Let's lock it in!"
    "Are you ready to find out the answer?"
    "Let's see!"

    JUST say correct or wrong! Talk about milking every bit to waste time and create zero more suspense.
