It was on the easy side but wouldn't have made any difference if it was harder. The Gamblers could have gotten 0 on their connecting wall and the Insurers 10 and the Gamblers would still win.
Definitely. There's a lot of Britain-specific questions. I don't even understand a lot of these even after I see the answer. Not saying that I would be breezing through the questions if I were a Brit, but it would certainly be easier.
I was stung by a Portuguese man-o-war when I was a kid. Incredibly painful. Jenny mentioned Ian Rankin by accident during the Wall & then he pops up in the consonants round!!! LOL
I think of number "TEN". Count the letters, okay T E N = 3 letters. Now you say count the letters in that number, right T H R E E = sorry but that equals five not four. T H R E E is five letters, count them. So, am I wrong????
I mean, he's right -- Bushy is a character in Richard II, and Richmond is in Richard III. It was my first thought while watching this... the problem is, how do you make a sequence from it?
oh no, i'm going to become addicted to this, i can feel it
This just happened to me
get outta here now
I am binging it. There's no better quiz
I want to stop. But my brain is getting too big I can't lift it off the pillow anymore
It’s so brilliant!!
I love the old British man getting his tea even on a gameshow
3:34 I wrote that! The first question I ever wrote for a game show that actually made it on air.
Its not a good connection as its out of sequence going 3,4,5,4
@@campsaints It's not a sequence, though. It's a connection.
game show questions are written by furries? wtf
@@campsaints it’s round 1, not round 2
cool
The Gamblers are a force to be reckoned with.
they didnt hedge their bets and buy insurance.
Jenny Ryan ended up on the Chase after all
The gamblers are excellent quizzers, but their wall was quite easy in my opinion.
It was on the easy side but wouldn't have made any difference if it was harder. The Gamblers could have gotten 0 on their connecting wall and the Insurers 10 and the Gamblers would still win.
Agreed. They would have won anyway but that was the easiest wall Ive seen so far. I actually figured out the top three on my own, which never happens.
I think I would be a lot better at this if I was British
nah, I'm British and also struggling haha

British or not it’s hard as fuck
I’m sure miss Coren would do a series in Canada, Australia or the US if encouraged. If for no other reason than to annoy her brother.
All that does is leave you clueless, but in a British accent :)
11:11 “Completely wrong!” “Thank you” 😂😂

So that's where "men are from Mars and women from Venus" comes from. Always thought that was an odd expression.
Maybe the symbols was picked based on that phrase.
@@j3r3miasmg The symbols were based on the Roman gods and goddesses for all the planets.

Question starts at 14:06
Love how he says "euros" when that's one currency that's not shown.
When I watch this show I feel dumb
i was lost for almost all of this, but i would have absolutely dominated in that parts of speech question
Me founding this in 2025 knowing i'll be watching it everyday now😂
Insurers - Oh, bunch of old dudes with ceo posts.. they'll get stomped
>Gamblers - Oh.

5:25 Shame that wasn't a picture of the wonderful Jennifer Patterson and Clarissa Dickson-Wright at the end!
I got the solar system one on the first clue before they did and I have to say I’m super proud of myself and I win
Imagine losing your knighthood for brawling with 7 armed knights yet living to tell the story.
Is that Jenny 'The Vixen' Ryan?
It is yes
She out-foxed the Insurers!
Three insurers who’ve never watched Father Ted. Makes a lot of sense.
That would be an ecumenical matter

i like to think Im somewhat wordly, and then I watch this.
William Geoghegan It always makes me laugh that the ones they don't get I'm yelling the answer at the screen! Lol! I'm so damn lowbrow. :-) xx
hah! I can honestly say, the only time I got excited at an answer was with Caravaggio, I was otherwise blank face.
I got a kick out of the fact that 'lowbrow' gamblers beat the crud out of learned men. Just goes to show, it pays to pick up on random knowledge.
Fakey, how do you think you would have faired with some of these questions?
I though it would be Gordon Ramsay and Jamie Oliver on the tv chefs
The Vixen!!
This episode is particularly hard
When I saw Ramsay and Oliver I instantly thought they were meant to be together
I think this is the best I've done with the sequences thus far! I got "Owl and the Pussycat", the pool balls, and the planet symbols.
Jenny Ryan, an expiring script writer…. On a quiz show…
Craggy Island ye feckers!
was screaming.
The final round was painful to watch, the insurers really didn't do well.
Calman is Kenneth Calman, father of comedian Susan.
Wow. The Insurers got twatted.
So it's an older version of Billy Bob Thornton and a rother of Big Sam Allardyce for the Insurers!
I wouldn't have known that was Jenny if I didn't know the surname
I like how every episode after Tom Scott’s episode slowly decreases in views as only the people binging the show continue to watch
Easy points on the planetary symbols.

The fact there's no money involved and they still play
Please tell me Tom Scott came up against Jenny Ryan in the final or at least a head to head
Fun fact about four - ask anyone to think of a number, count the letters, count the letters in that number etc. they will always end on 4.
+spidaminida They won't
Try it.
I think of number "TEN". Count the letters, okay T E N = 3 letters. Now you say count the letters in that number, right T H R E E = sorry but that equals five not four. T H R E E is five letters, count them. So, am I wrong????
Yeh etc as in you keep doing it ;)
How many letters in five?
Do it is never ending then? In time, you get back to four, it is no trick, just mathematically certainty.
Consultants...
Im useless at this show but I got 3 of the venomous sea creatures.
The Vixen from the Chase i see
Them shoulders nice af 👌
Did Stephen really suggest that these where characters in Shakespeare at 16:17 - if he really thought that, I am astonished.
I mean, he's right -- Bushy is a character in Richard II, and Richmond is in Richard III. It was my first thought while watching this... the problem is, how do you make a sequence from it?
Did she say "it's all fucking classical music" at 7:45?
"So bad with classical music"
no idea how you heard "fucking"
the three Gamblers have one surname between them
British people know the weirdest of things.
Why am I watching this? OH I KNOW... It's because I have now change math to MATHS and theater to THEATRE and aluminum to ALUMINIUM.
Jenny Ryan? Isnt she one of the chasers?
She is now, but she wasn't then. Most of the chasers are experienced "quizzers".
I'm not sure what this show is, or what they're talking about, but the presenter is hot so I watch.
What year is this from?
2001
2010, I believe
@@BrutalTurtle That would be very impressive since it was first shown on BBC Four, which didn't start broadcasting until 2002.
@@gwishart I Think they meant 2010, like the following comment, and that it was a typo
