Some quiz show on Ch4 and there’s 3 in a team and none of them knew when St David’s Day or St Andrew’s Day was.

The American woman on Lightning this week must be one of the worst contestants on any quiz show ever.

Twice this week she’s had 2 minutes of questions fired at her and didn’t get any right.

I saw that, she was truly terrible! She didn’t know fucking anything at all. It was almost like she might be on the WUM but why would you portray yourself on tele as the thickest person that’s ever lived so thought it must be genuine.

I know David’s is on a 1st but can’t remember if it’s 1st February or March. I wouldn’t know either of those without checking. Nor St Patrick’s Day.

I didn’t even know that England’s Patron Saint was St Edmund until about 5 years ago.

I suspect they are putting hard-up actors on these shows posing as contestants.

If you don't celebrate it why would you care to remember it?

Don’t know the date of St George's day so damned if I know the date important to jingoistic sweaties and taffs.

I cant work out their logic for applying to go on any quiz show. Do they just think they can fluke it?

Can you be so thick that you don’t even realise you are thick? Does it also negate any self respect?

Edmund would have been a better choice to keep as England’s patron saint.

The days of patron saints, even if it is a stupid concept, was drummed into us at school. Assumed it was the same for everyone but it seems not.

Okay, perhaps a bad example. But the guy did think Denmark was a land-locked country. Can I replace my original evidence with this?

In Junior school if you were in the cubs or brownies you would wear uniform on one of the Saint days

Meant to post this in the talk shite thread the other day but forgot.
Goldstein and Darren Bent had a head to head quiz on drive time.
Bent was asked to name 5 counties that end in shire......
He got off to a flying start naming Warwickshire, Leicestershire and Northamptonshire..... and then just froze..... the clock was ticking away, Goldstein laughing away and he just couldn't think of one more!

I went to school in Failsworth and I've never even heard of either of them.

Youve never heard of Edmund Blackadder?

He was a Bury lad, wasn't he?

The one thing I have noticed without meaning to. When a scouser is on and they lose they normally complain about the tipping machine or the questions not falling for them.
Even mrs Gordon spots it now.

 

[Tuearts right boot]

Watching ITV now in the background whilst messing around on Blue Moon and the quiz question on Tipping Point asked was this

Which football team from Manchester became the first to win the Premier League, FA Cup and League Cup in the same season....
Twat presses the button and says the rags ha ha ha

Any football question on the Chase or Tipping point should always be answered Manchester United, it's common sense really for the great unwashed and is usually correct anyway.

 

[journolud]

A couple on Pointless right now, name a country with a border of over 1000km with another country. She said Africa and got a “look” from him. He said the UK

 

[lazerblue]

saw one on the american version of family fortunes, a bloke was asked to name a word that followed "pork",
he said "upine", ffs

Was the top answer “Markets”?

Search Steve Harvey on YouTube, all the stupid answers are on compilation videos, some of them are brilliant
