Steve's incessant range of facial expressions is funny to watch. His cheesed-off look reminds me of a northern Jack Dee. He's done well so far. Beth, in contrast, looks very nervous at times.

It struck me that he's probably a bit deaf.......apart from asking for repeats of questions a few times he does sort of screw his face around as though trying to point his better ear towards Jeremy
Could be that they do it to give a bit of padding if the challengers are particularly weak and there are no sudden death's and quite a few Eggheads only have to answer 2 questions.... |

She wasn't certain of where Gare du Nord was located. She did eventually assume France, but not Paris. In any event, while London and Paris would clearly have more passengers in total than Milan, it is possible that it could have a station busier than any particular London/Paris one.

That and "i'm not quite sure on this one" pretty much every question led to one or the other!
"I don't THINK it's that..." Oh yeah, why not? SHOW YOUR WORKINGS. |

Milan Central is the only station in Milan (of any importance) whereas London and Paris have several. Gare du Nord has around 190 million passengers per year, Milan Central around 150 million while St Pancras only has around 32 million

Even though they weren't good, I really enjoyed the team yesterday, they were jovial and funny and up for the challenge which is what I like in the challengers.
I wouldn't have minded if they had won, alas they didn't know a thing!

Old Episodes already, would have thought that there would have been more filmed. Nice to see Daphne on it again though!

I tweeted Rob Dean and he said there will be 3 weeks of repeats ![]() ![]() I'm not really sure why but I will have to put down my stat pen. |

There's 85 episodes of this series, I think they reached Ep 24 last Thursday.

They do seem to keep suddenly going back to showing older episodes in the middle of a series without any warning, which is very strange. I wish I knew why they do this.

So they can extend the new episodes into next year to sustain interest instead of a massive repeat run whilst they film another series.

So the new ones last longer? I just can't understand the reason behind going down from 100 to 85 because of make me an egghead.

I've always liked Daphne! 😀
Interestingly Judith is now the same age that Daphne was when she left Eggheads. |

Presumably they have to show the episode where the Eggsheads total winning run is the same as the point at which they insert the old episode So tonight for example they could only have showed old episodes where the prize fund was up to 10K .........and does this mean that if they go to a new episode tomorrow they'll have skipped from 9K to 11K in the current series..... just struck me as a very off way to go about things.......... |

And then she chuckles and apologies to the other contestant. I'd forgotten how annoying she was (a 9.2 on the de Mooi scale) and could feel my neck tensing up before I switched off.
![]() ![]() ![]() I'm guessing a CJ is a 10? Where does Jeremy Vine come? |
