I was laughing again at yesterday's show - yet again, the winner was decided in the first 7 or 8 minutes due to winning a load of penalty pot counters on a stupidly easy film question.
Sure enough, £1000 quid racked up and way ahead. Game over. They really need to have each penalty counter have a question one at a time, but I guess the show would take too long then. But it's quite hilarious how unbalanced the mechanics of the show are. We all have different interests and different areas of expertise. You might be an expert on punk rock and I might know all about Opera. Just because I know nothing about Johnny Rotten and you don't have a clue who Puccini is, it doesn't necessarilly mean that either of us is stupid. |

The finalist tonight, Sue, gambled £2,700 to try and win the jackpot. She lost the lot.
In my opinion she didn't have a snowballs chance in hell of winning. The jackpot counter was settled midway between 2 & 3 and she was dropping the counters far too late. She was getting riders nearly all the time towards the end. She wanted the money to visit her son in Australia and to see three grandchildren she had never seen. She had more than enough for a flight down under. She threw it all away.

Her timing was awful, hence the amount of riders. As you say, even without that, the placing of the Jackpot counter meant she had little chance.

That was a really enjoyable show. The celebs get more excited than the usual contestants - I think that's good.
Well done Charlotte. And Ben ist just GORGEOUS! |

£4,100! TAKE THE MONEY!In the shows I've seen the best sections are 1 or 4 in the final, especially if the jackpot counter lies against the side edge. That coupled with many contestants dropping the counters far too late and ending up with "riders" makes you wonder if they watch the show before they appear on it. Clearly they get no advice from the programme makers. |

I'm not a regular viewer but caught a glimpse yesterday. Easy to see why it can get addictive when playing it in the arcade... I'll get the next one for sure! D'oh, okay, just one more! Oh, nearly got it that time! Etc.

Student guy today has obviously watched the show before. His drop-timing was bang on.
And I think it you spawn it and get the double counter over with the jackpot, then they should give you a double jackpot! |
