That first round was quite well set in that the letters V.A.R. exclude the surnames of most football teams. Which was quite smart design I thought. Doesn't exclude the surname of my own team though. Sheffield Wednesday. Which Richard said was a 2 pointer. So I would have been set. Though the actual first team to my mind that I thought people might not get was in fact another local team, 'Barnsley.' But that was a 3 pointer.
I thought of League One teams who have been in the Premier League, so came up with Reading, Charlton and Wigan, and would’ve got 2, 2 and a pointless answer. However, would I have gone with Wigan to get the pointless answer? Not sure. I probably would have have chosen Reading. Amazed that Southampton, as a current PL team, would’ve got 1 point.
I’d like to see Gordon Ramsey guest host or give commentary…like do you think that’s a POINTLESS answer, you DONKEY?!? These hosts get an occasional jab in and probably are the right tone..but I default to more of a dressing down mindset when I see the people so excited to “Know an Answer” they forget the point of the show.
As a Blackburn Rovers supporter of 50 years I'm pleased to see we've been ingrained in the consciousness of a young man from Hertfordshire/Kent! 😀
Round 1: I got a 2 pointer answer
19:12 I got 4 out of 6 answers, including the 2nd best answer on the board

Elspeth absolutely fucked over Joe on the final question. He was all set to go with Scarab until she doubted him and overruled.
Liverpool... jesus christ, woman... ruined what would have otherwise been a nailbiter of a round

what happened to taking people's first answers, hmm? She said Pressure first and then corrected it to Under Pressure
She knew the song was ‘Under Pressure’. The answer to the scientific question was ‘pressure’, so I don’t see the problem.
