egg heads,,,

Sounds like a lot of fun ... (so does Alice Keppel) ... but only a 1000 pounds? That seems pretty cheap. That's only about $2000. You can do a lot better on Jeopardy. Or even on Win Ben Stein's Money. Still, sounds like a good idea for a show. I wonder why it hasn't hit North America.

It isn't really about the money, it's the prestige of trying to win against five of the supposed brainiest people in Britain.

The Eggheads have had a long unbroken run, and the prize fund now stands at £53,000, which to regular fans of the show is an unprecedented amount, and it's getting very exciting.

I 'spose. Maybe I'm getting mercenary in my dotage:D And a 100 grand isn't all that bad of a payday. And the show is probably much better than crap like The Price Is Right and Wheel of Fortune. I still watch Jeopardy every night, and somtimes Millionaire. After watching those, I don't feel guilty about tuning in to WWE, Smackdown or Raw:rolleyes:
 
This is one of the few things I did watch whilst I was away. I love trying to see if I can answer things the eggheads don't know. That makes me feel really brainy!

You ned to keep watching then, just to see who eventually topples them. I like the programme but have missed it quite a lot lately. Will be making sure I get it taped if there is a chance of missing it, at least till this big money is won.:)
 
Some of the challenging teams this week haven't stood a chance.

Yesterday's team, Brains and Beauty, may have had the looks, but would have struggled to come up with one brain between the five of them.

I have a feeling tomorrow is going to be the day when they lose.
 
I really want a worthy team to win it, when they eventually lose.

I didn't like today's opponents, the giddy southern am dram brigade.

I was glad the Eggheads beat 'em.:D
 
I'm not so sure. I've seen them go unbeaten for weeks and when the series ends, the cash pot goes back to £1000 for the start of the new series.


It has never done that!

A series ends, and then they show repeats!

You've been tricked.

Trust me, that has never happened.

Sadly, I know.:D
