Cathie looks familiar. I'm sure she's been on another show.

We were in the audience for two shows recorded last May and no sign of the shows we saw yet either! I wonder if you were on the shows we saw Sandgrounder
![]() They recorded the Christmas 2014 episode directly after ours as we saw them bringing the Christmas trees in! |

It's not on from Monday for two weeks so I guess they wanted to end on a win.

Well according to Burghley House website it's in Lincolnshire, having lived quite near there and shopping in Stamford it was always in Lincolnshire. We had PE postcodes too living in Lincolnshire. We live in Cambridgeshire now and have a PE postcode too.

Ha yes, ours was the last show recorded that day! We saw the call sheet for that day's recording when we were in the green room, and my name was next to Anne Widdecombe's! You must have witnessed our performance then...
![]() We've been paying close attention to whether the audience makes any "whooing" noises when the tower clicks down because our warm up guy didn't tell any jokes but just had us all doing loads of practise whooing and we had to whoo for every countdown. We were all out of puff by the end of our two shows! We haven't heard other audiences making much noise but maybe they deaden the sound in the edit! |

We must have Sandgrounder, although I'm glad now that I made a couple of notes about the show, because I've forgotten it all now! I hope you did well Sandgrounder.

We won our show but not the jackpot alas! One thing that struck me particularly was the agonising wIt between giving our answer and the tower starting its countdown. Much longer than you see in the edit and so nerve wracking.
Yes, the delay between answer and tower is weird and as you say, nerve wracking for those taking part! On a side note, I didn't realise that The Chase was recorded at Elstree before we went there. As we were led to the Pointless studio we passed the one for The Chase on the way! Richard has mentioned Bradley Walsh and Mark "The Beast" Labbett a few times on social media. I wouldn't be surprised if they see each other around sometimes. |

Well done Sandgrounder, but I do remember the jackpot didn't go in that show!

My Mum went to see the Alan Titchmarsh Show several times and she said twice that Bradley had come into the studio to say hello to the audience between recordings a as he was doing The Chase in the next studio. |

I thought The Chase was recorded at The South Bank Studios.
Aha! According to Wikipedia: Granada Studios, Manchester 2009 The London Studios 2010-2013 Teddington Studios 2013-2014 Elstree Studios 2014- They do get around, don't they? - but this is off-topic for the Pointless thread! |

Exactly what I thought.
Without even seeing the other contestants tonight I bet this pair of young, student teachers will go out in the first round. |

I bet they don't. Last night was S9-51. Tonight it's S10-15.
No, I don't know why either. |

It's possible they moved at some time, but it was definitely recorded at the ITV Studios near Waterloo when I was on it in series 6.

It seems that a few people who have been on the show read these columns.
I'd be interested to know how long it takes to record a show. A lot longer than the 45 mins run time I fancy. |
