I thought it was by land area, not population. Also, two of the answers ended in 'lands'. I don't remember him saying that was ok but I was busy making tea at the time.
One thing I did hear him explaining, was that it was only countries recognised by the UN so Scotland & England don't count but he accepted Ireland, which is divided into the Republic of Ireland, which is a correct answer and Northern Ireland which isn't. Quote:
Although the header for the question referred to "largest countries", Warwick went on to explain that this was in terms of population, not land area which I too would have thought it meant. The word "land" could come anywhere in the name, e.g. Solomon Islands, this just seemed to be acccepted.

I only got the 6 wives and the 3 legitimate children. There was a programme on last week, where Henry Fitzroy was mentioned but surely he wasn't Henry's only illegitimate child. I couldn't believe he said Mary Queen of Scots, who was Henry's sister's grandchild.
Orangecrab has already explained what he said about the countries question. As for the Henry question, he explained that the illegitimate child was the one widely accepted by historians and acknowledged by Henry himself.

Groundhogal, may I suggest you pay more attention to the "small print" as Warwick calls it.

I like Warwick Davis but God this programme is as dull as a wet Tuesday in Clacton. I switched over after ten minutes.

They missed one out. The theme song Grease is the first track and not Summer Night. I can't recall Warwick saying that didnt count. If I had been on there I would have said Grease and been really annoyed if they had said no. So really this was incorrect.

There was a couple of tracks, I'd never heard of. Is this the stage musical soundtrack album or the film one? The opening song, Grease (Is The Word) was written for the film.

We seem to begetting a bit bogged down with this "should Ireland be included".
All we want to know is......do you like the show? My answer is..... yes! |

I'm not really understanding this last 10 presidents round. Last week, when they had to name the last 10 first ladies, they had to give their full name but for presidents, which is a bit easier, he's getting away with the first name, President with some of them.

I'm growing to like this quiz now, though I don't like the noise its makes when its going through the board.
I've not seen any where they've won the money yet so I think they should get a percentage of the money when they get to 5 correct answers and then a bit more if they reach 8 correct |

I was saddled with this nauseating crap this afternoon and aside from reaffirming my dislike for Warwick Davies, who piggybacks off of Star Wars and Ricky Gervais, I do wonder where they find these contestants? One could barely name the 12 Days of Christmas list and between then all, could hardly name anyone from Only Fools and Horses! Who on this planet hasn't watched OFAH? I think this show should be renamed Terrible because frankly, that's what it is.

Anyone who dislikes Warwick Davis is so far out on a limb on one end of the spectrum that their views on anything else are highly likely to be totally disregarded.

He did a really interesting (and moving) documentary in 2013 about the Ovitz family - a family of Romanian Jewish dwarves who survived Auschwitz as an entertainment troupe.

My only complaint about this show so far is when the answer is wrong, how long it takes for them to find out that it's wrong. Drags on a bit for me. |
