Eggheads contestant taking literally five minutes to answer a question

THIS IS NOT ENTERTAINMENT.

The explaining is why I never watch it. I'm not a big fan of The Weakest Link, but the one thing it does give you is quickfire questioning. The Eggheads and contestants always explain why this could be the answer, but they think the name sounds German, that answer could be correct, but they're not convinced by the anachronistic timing and they've decided to go for option b, because they remember it being the correct answer in a pub quiz in 1976 and they were certain about it all along so didn't really need to explain why the other possible answers were wrong in the first place.

And Daphne always pretends she doesn't know the answer and is just guess, but always gets it right.

Can they find an even bigger twat to replace him?

 

[Fuddlemiff]

Maybe my Countdown friend could take over, though he is the opposite of a massive twat (and I don't mean he's a little dick).

 

[CaptainWacky]

Maybe MENTY can take over.

EGGHEADS IS MY FAVOURITE FUCKING SHOW OK.

CJ LEAVING IS A MASSIVE TRAGEDY.

 

[CaptainWacky]

The new Egghead should be called "JC" and it's just CJ dressed up as Jesus doing one of his "acting" roles.

I love that I can search "Eggheads" on Twitter and find people saying the exact same thing I was thinking (one of the challengers was hot.)

How long did they have to answer the question?

 

[Fuddlemiff]

It's a pretty low budget show, so they could probably take the whole half hour to answer and it'd suit the producers.

But yeah this girl was Scottish and an electircal engineer and you could tell Jeremy Vine fancied her a bit (she still lost her head to head.)

I have just heard Jeremy Vine says the words "Imogen POOTS". I can die happy now.
