    What are your fav quiz programmes?

    Been watching the Chase recently. Tough enough. But despite answering questions and gaining some money. It can be taken of you.


    Like countdown as well

    Chase is good.
    Bank Job
    Million pound drop is okay if you've it recorded. Takes ages watching it life.

    I actually love watching University Challenge.There are some incredible brain boxes
    on that programme.I remember one time some lad getting asked a round of questions on Rugby League.He didn't get any of the answers and I knew them all.Made my week that did..

    I like mastermind. I always thought I'd be good at the specialist subject 'Only Fools and Horses'. I'd probably be shit on the general knowledge part though.

    Used to love Eggheads, but it's getting on my nerves lately. I agree the Chase is great!

    I haven't seen it in ages due to my work hours being changed but I believe
    that her replacement isn't half bad either.

    Love University Challenge! Jeremy is so evil... 'Come on! Hurry up' and then someone comes out with this completely alien theory by some madman and Jeremy ridicules them when they're wrong. LOVE IT.

    Myself and Chris watch it and play along...usually one of us wins 3-2...i.e. we get 5 right between us in the whole programme. ;)

    I always find guessing Tchaikovsky for the music rounds works a treat ;)


    Only Connect is also really good. Victoria Coren is class :)

    I'm surprised A Question Of Sport has not been mentioned. Or a League of Their Own.

    Pointless is good as well.

    Many will remember Bullseye with Jim Bowen.Used to be a good craic.
    Also his catchphrase "Super Smashing Great"..never forget when he asked a contestant "What do you do?" the chap said "im Unemployed"..
    And Jim replied... Super,Smashing,Great.:D
