I was grumpy as there were two Irish lasses in my living room at the same time, so I therefore couldn't hear the questions for them yakking. Scores were pretty impressive though.Jojo Apollo wrote:Good to see a C of C series for this show, great to see some of the past champs again also.

As a spud-muncher yourself, surely you understand the inevitable outcome of having two Irish ladies in a room together?David O'Donnell wrote:Why you gotta play the race card, fucker?Ian Volante wrote:I was grumpy as there were two Irish lasses in my living room at the same time, so I therefore couldn't hear the questions for them yakking.

Actually, sometimes racism is based on a stereotype that's fairly near the truth.Ian Volante wrote: As a spud-muncher yourself, surely you understand the inevitable outcome of having two Irish ladies in a room together?
I bloody hope so. I actually love that man. Shaun Wallace on at the moment and also Chris Hughes (who I also think is fricking awesome)JackHurst wrote:Is kevin ashman going to be on?
Yes Chris sadly is getting old, and getting bigger, he admitted being a lazy sod in his videotape bit but he is just amazing. His questions on trains were just insane and it was funny watching him reel off all this shit about them!Matt Morrison wrote:Chris looked quite unhealthy. That was sad to see. Sopilzes: If he couldn't win, would have liked Mr. Chase to have won, not that tit who was showing off about getting a job as a fucking librarian.
Why was it that Shaun got all his questions right in round one but only amasses 17 but the smug git, sorry contestant no1, managed 19 I think that question length must be inconsistant especially when you consider the chap that got 23 yesterday.Ryan Taylor wrote:Yes Chris sadly is getting old, and getting bigger, he admitted being a lazy sod in his videotape bit but he is just amazing.

Prime example - question about Frasier going back to some high school reunion, question was basically what was the name of the school, but in the middle was the completely unnecessary bit about "which Frasier didn't want to attend due to thinking he was cursed". Unnecessary and unfair, especially as they aren't allowed to interrupt (and was that always the case on Mastermind?).Marc Meakin wrote:Why was it that Shaun got all his questions right in round one but only amasses 17 but the smug git, sorry contestant no1, managed 19 I think that question length must be inconsistant especially when you consider the chap that got 23 yesterday.Ryan Taylor wrote:Yes Chris sadly is getting old, and getting bigger, he admitted being a lazy sod in his videotape bit but he is just amazing.

It's said that the questions are balanced for length, could this just be perception from a couple of long ones?Matt Morrison wrote:Prime example - question about Frasier going back to some high school reunion, question was basically what was the name of the school, but in the middle was the completely unnecessary bit about "which Frasier didn't want to attend due to thinking he was cursed".

He'll be off twirling his tache somewhere.JackHurst wrote:WTF?! No Kevin. He must have done a Beevers. I don't like him any more.
He shaved it off a few years ago, it hasn't been seen since, I think.Ian Volante wrote:He'll be off twirling his tache somewhere.JackHurst wrote:WTF?! No Kevin. He must have done a Beevers. I don't like him any more.
He does still have a tache doesn't he?
