Equally I'm shouting "pass you twats" when they waste 2 or 3 seconds until someone finally does it.....1 guy won 50k or something similar on one episode. I’d ideally like to be on my own in the final if I was on it. People buzzing in quick but not knowing do my fucking head in.

The smart tactic would be if the first 3 get through for the last one to go high no matter how clever/thick they are and split the money 4 ways even if they go out.It is a tactic which took me a while to understand.
Yes it reduces the money but you need at least 3 of the team in the final.
Last week was the first time I've seen 2 players beat the Chaser - and the Chaser was one more correct answer away from winning when time ran out.
3 heads will get more correct answers than 2 in the final.
It is best to drop from say £17,000 to £15,000 and to split that 3 ways than losing with 2 players

But if you are knocked out you don't get a share of the winnings (unless you mean they all agree off camera to split it 4 ways)The smart tactic would be if the first 3 get through for the last one to go high no matter how clever/thick they are and split the money 4 ways even if they go out.

There's been a few times when a couple of the chasers have stumbled over getting a poor score of 14 or 15. As soon as you have a good team of three or four and the score is, say, 15, a chaser like Sean will be looking at the clock, taking his time and not rushing. He fucked up the other day by taking too long on one question, getting it wrong, and running out of time.

I think that is fine if the team knew each other as mates, but meeting 3 random people and agreeing off the record to do that.... I wouldn't want be the last person to gamble for the big one, lose and then wait for 3 random people to send me my cut lolYeah agree beforehand....seems an obvious one to do to me.
