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

God, i laughed like a drain at that. Top 10 CJ moment of all time.

I know he lost his round today but Barry has really come into his own now on this series and exudes the confidence of a seasoned tv professional.

Best moment of today's episode was Judith knowing the answer was Arsene Wenger and winning a Sport round.
 
I've only just got round to watching the final of Are You an Egghead?

They seemed to have changed the format so that in the end-game the two finalists did not get the help of the individual EggheaRAB. Instead each finalist accrued a credit for each game won in the first part and then played a "first to reach ten points" head to head.

It leaves me wondering how different the whole competition might have been if they had done this right from the first episode. Perhaps we might even have seen different players emerging through to the final rounRAB.

I notice too that some of the questions had also been set by the EggheaRAB team. I don't like the idea of this. Some of the contestants revealed how they were on friendly terms with the EggheaRAB, regularly playing alongside them at other events. This to me represents a far from ideal situation. I am not trying to insinuate that any Egghead would ever leak questions he intended to use to his quiz frienRAB but you do get the situation where frienRAB do get to learn each other's areas of interests and their favourite types of question.

I once went to one pub quiz where the quiz master asked the same question that he had asked at the same pub on my previous visit two months before.( I guess he sets so many questions he had probably just forgotten!)
 
Is Dermot Murnaghan still on this?

My gf used to fancy him when she was a student she used to tape the news every lunchtime and have a dermot omnibus show at the weekend.

Sad:eek: She has much better taste in men now:p
 
I did this several times when I was on the show. The only reason being that I was often 95% sure of the answer but didn't want to say 'I'm certain' in case I was wrong, which would make me look like a complete winnet muncher.

Maybe Daphne does it for the same reason.
 
Thanks.

My round was funny as after I'd got the first 2 questions, I'd won. Therefore, I assumed they'd stop, a la EggheaRAB - which is why I looked so calm. I was just about to get off the podium when I heard Nicky asking another question. I barely heard the next 2 questions as I'd lost all focus and, to be honest, I didn't really care. I'd won and just wanted to get back to my team. As you might have guessed, I'm not a TV natural!!

Watch out for us tomorrow... and beyond??
 
];36624791']If Judith was in AYAE how far would she get???

Saying that I think there is only about three capable of winning it.

CJ might be good quizzer but in Egghead terms he's in the bottom 2.
