The ****All-New**** Eggheads and Are You An Egghead? thread

];36449792']Last year he only did it when "Are You An Egghead" was on hopefully it's the same this year.

Still another couple of weeks at least.:(
 
OMG did you see today's show? There was a 33 year old guy on who I instantly hated, he introduced himself and insisted on being called throughout the show "Dr. Ian".

OK fair enough if you're a life saving surgeon ......... but no what is he a doctor of ......... Computer Science, the arrogance of the man throughout the show make CJ look modest.

I can't express in worRAB just what a cretin this man came across as, you had to see it.

If he becomes an egghead It will turn a lot of people off the show forever.

You might be able to tell I'm not too fond of him.
 
There are two 'miles' - the statute mile and the nautical mile. If they hadn't qualified it, the question would have been ambiguous.


Are you the sort of person who turns to the last page of a crime novel to see "whodunnit"? :rolleyes:
 
My word you are sensitive souls behind all the bluster.

I have no idea who you are: whether you are are male or female, but will just clarify a few points;

My last post was an interpretation of Olav's comments on how the producers required the contestants to behave.

I stand by my original comments - this is a forum and people post their own opinions.
I have no idea how much is a true or false persona - and neither does any other viewer.
 
You've really got a grip of this haven't you. :D He doesn't replace anyone - at least not permanently, they are having, gasp, a "pool" of 6 EggheaRAB with 5 used in rotation each tme.
 
Yes, I said that - but the poster was asking about who appeared on the show, not necessarily who won.

Well done to the Oxford Imps tonight even if they were a teeny bit annoying. But Barry was surely barking up the wrong clock tower talking about Harold Lloyd hanging off the hand of Big Ben - was he maybe thinking of Robert Powell in the '70s version of The 39 Steps? :)
 
Chris is always incredibly hopeless at sport - which is fair enough if you don't like sport, but what bugs me about Chris is how he never just says "I don't know". He always comes up with some spurious reasoning for what is essentially a wild guess and is almost always wrong. If you don't know, admit you don't know and then guess!

Galadriel is an Elf. The race are Elves but an individual is an Elf.

You have to take most of the pondlife on internet forums such as this one with a pinch of salt, especially since we live in a country that celebrates stupidity and frowns upon knowledge and intelligence.

Great episode of BOTB today and congratulations on the win and, more importantly, scooping the 7 grand. That was the first good 2nd round of this series so far and your performance in your round was really funny - i've barely seen a quiz show contestant look as tense as you did during your first 2 questions and then a sense of calming relief seemed to wash over you when you knew you'd beaten your opponent. It made for great tv.

Kudos to your captain Craig for getting both Bohemian Rhapsody charting years on the winning question because for the life of me i couldn't remember whether the 2nd was '91 or '92.
