    I saw a few minutes of this on saturday night, just to see if it really was the same family from Big Fat Gypsy Wedding and it was, with Ming Flanagans family . Watched 5 minutes, just so i could say i really had. It was even worse than i thought it might be . I dont usually agree with David Norris, but i think he has a point about current television output . Pure drivel of the lowest order. Having said that, TV3 must reckon they will get people to watch it, so , does it say more about the viewing public, or TV3?

    The Alan Hughes muppet is so annoying and loud and out there.

    Can't stand anything he's in.

    I think he was talking about Tallafornia (just try to spell check that :rolleyes:).

    Yeah yeah look terrified IMO. Bring back Talkabout.

    Yeah, I agree, surprised TV3 didn't suggest Martin King for that job, he is possibly the best suit to a Family Game Show. (Not that surprised really, I always felt Martin was underrate haha).

    You can tell they aren't doing their own survey, what are people scared of Wolves and Bears!

    It's now being billed as Alan Hughes' Irish Family Fortunes.

    And I thought it was just the titles of documentaries that the folks at Ballymount messed around with... :rolleyes:

    You mean the third pilot in the Format Farm series - which, for anyone who still doesn't know about it, was basically Come Dine With Me with nights out instead of dinner parties?

    No surprise, really... :rolleyes: ;)


    This episode was repeated immediately before the X Factor - imaginitive scheduling by TV3. :rolleyes:

    If there is one good thing to say about it, it's that 327 must be one of the highest Big Money scores ever on any version of the show around the world, if not the highest...

    The highest I've seen on the UK version is 312, while 311 was once achieved on Bert's Family Feud in Australia:

    (As an aside, does that name at 2:16 look familiar? :D:D;);))

    327 is a massive score. I think on most games it would be impossible to score so highly. You need the top two answers on each of the five questions to average 32.7 between them (and the two contestants to find all ten of the top answers). Usually the Big Money questions generate more varied answers than that.
