Pity poor Kajen Thuraaisingham. Last night he appeared on Mastermind and, reports DigitalSpy, scored the lowest number of points in the show’s entire history. Where Michael Burton of Peckham equalled the worst all time score recently with seven points to his name, Kajen managed four right answers in his specialist round and only one in general knowledge. Achieving the lowest tally ever – only five points in all – took 13 wrongs answers and 11 passes.
Owch.
A bit of a short one this week as, once again, we’re a bit too busy to carry out insanely detailed research into the history of someone like Freddie Starr or someone. We’ll be doing one of those next week. Instead, WWM Podcast 27 comes in the form of a quiz!
Listen in as Napoleon puts me, Swineshead, through my paces regarding my television knowledge.
Why not join in at home – and let us know how you got along with the quiz in the comments section?
No Nick Tann this week as the cast is a shortie – but you can see what he’s been up to (at the BBC no less!) over here. Well worth a listen, is that.
You wait your whole life for a TV-based panel show – or at least you’d forgotten about the very notion of TV quizzes since Noel Edmonds gave up on Telly Addicts in the 80s – and then two come along at once! Now, before you start fretting, obviously neither of these two efforts are a patch on the superior content contained within your high-brow, super funshine Watch With Mothers – and you’d be a fool to think differently. But as we’re in Quiz-City, let us treat each show as though they were the awkward-looking members on a celebrity gameshow team and then, using objectivity and common sense, score them against one another in an apocalyptic showdown fight to the death. Type of thing.
Ultimately, we’ll decide which of these two new formats is the KING OF TV TELLY TESTS – and there will be no disputing our findings.
