It was the worst show I have seen in a long time tonight
Aye. They should have binned this one. A few more of these and people will switch off.

What happened to accepting the first answer?[...]how can they accept "The Temple of Athena...the Parthenon" as right?

Just so we're clear - the Parthenon IS the temple of Athena. I was clarifying my answer, not changing it. #TheChase

Pity this a general knowledge show and not a who's the nicest show then. Maybe she took a wrong turn and in another studio, some total bastard, who's really clever, is failing miserably too.
Yes they ended up in the Tipping Point studio where the thickest contestant won the show in the first round with a huge double drop despite getting no questions right whereas our poor person discovered knowing the answers to questions makes little difference in this show.

What happened to accepting the first answer? Apart from the fact that Anne's questions were suspiciously easy (as usual), how can they accept "The Temple of Athena...the Parthenon" as right?
As Anne's tweet confirms, you really should check your facts first. And if the contestant had picked the other ball out of the bag, she would have got the suspiciously easy questions instead.

Yes but the conspiracy theorists don't accept that picking the different separate set of questions makes any difference just as they don't check their facts - facts get in the way of conspiracy theories so best to ignore them.

Knowing the answers to questions certainly does matter in Tipping Point. She may have won the jackpot yesterday if she had known more answers in the final round. But no one has ever claimed that Tipping Point is all about knowing the answers, it is not just a pure quiz show like The Chase is.

I thought it was obvious I was exaggerating. There is a limited advantage in knowing the answers but even in the final round you can usually guess the correct answer - if you know nothing about the subject but have heard of one of them it's usually correct whereas in the Chase it is often best to go for the least well known.

No. I was going to say something controversial but thought better of it.
