If this Jedward fan wins there is no justice in the world. For the sake of future generations somebody who is quick on the buzzer should not be allowed to spoil this show with their bizarre Jedward fascination.

I watched this programme for the first time ever yesterday. How many "celebrities" said no before they got their dream team of Rosemary Shrager, Louie Spence and Jayne McDonald?

Louie Spence didn't have a clue on any of the questions.

Pointless, Perfection, Tipping Point & The Chase all four at the mo are repeats :yawn:

Only consolation I was on Pointless again yesterday & Tipping Point last week.

What makes me laugh is the programme makers hate casting you on a show if you have just done one or one is about to be shown, they seem less worried how repeats go out though it seems

What on earth was that woman doing today? She pressed at the wrong time EVERY coin and put loads of counters into the wrong dropzone for no apparent reason. I can't remember being this irritated by TV ever before. Hopeless!

The only reason I could think of is that she focused less on the jackpot counter and more on just getting the money.

More counters seemed to be under dropzone 3 anyway though?

You're so right. That was the MOST frustrating show I've ever watched. I can only assume she is on loopy pills as she didn't have a single clue what she was doing.
She even started the jackpot round in the wrong drop and why was she pressing the button at the same consistently wrong time each go

I was willing Ben to actually tell her but I guess that's not in the programme makers' interests

If I was on i'd definitely put the jackpot counter in 1 or 4. The walls seem to help in getting it down.

Even today they seem to be putting the counters in at odd times.
To me it seems obvious to push the button when the "tray" is furthest back - then the forward movement of the tray will drag the counter flat every time. Just me ???

Me too. I don't understand why anyone picks less then 3 counters for the questions either.

I like pointless but the mystery prizes are pants and the fact that the other contestants do not get to keep the money that they've accumulated seems stingy.

Errrm. There are mystery prizes in Pointless?
I think you're getting a bit mixed up.
This game is called Tipping Point. I don't think much of the mystery prizes either.
Losers don't normally walk away with money prizes in other games either. In fact, in this game, the winners sometimes walk away with nothing too, as in today's repeat show.

I've never watched pointless,so I'm not sure where that came from. Should play for points not £s.
