I enjoyed the new episode. Winning £125k is nothing to be sniffed while being the first contestant of the new year.

Certainly compared to most of them in the last series, who were generally gone within ten minutes.

Is it going to be on over 5 consecutive nights or once a week for 5 weeks? Sorry if this was answered already. I really enjoyed it tonight. Not as good as the original with Chris Tarrant but a great show still.

7 straight nights, I think.

Does Clarkson ever know the answer. Was not sure if he knew the Sri Lanka answer or not

In fairness, I'd believe that he knew about Amundsen - you could imagine him reading about polar explorers as a child.

Did we all quickly google Sri Lankas flag !

Nope, knew it straight away after having played a lot of EU4

Who coughed....classic!

ShamoBuc · 02-01-2019 10:15PM

Jeremy got one right !!!

The Talking Bread · 02-01-2019 10:26PM

Well that (the missed phone call) was obviously done on purpose for (cough) comedy effect....... It went to voicemail after a couple of rings.

ShamoBuc · 02-01-2019 10:27PM

Oh dear.

dublinman1990 · 02-01-2019 10:28PM

She's going home with £32k after this break.

The Talking Bread · 02-01-2019 10:40PM

Clarkson's links to the ad breaks are shockingly unfunny.

Andy From Sligo · 02-01-2019 10:40PM

bloody hell - do we have to know this blokes life story with every answer he gives? - just answer the bloody question . I dont care if you have read jack whitehall's biography ffs

And he is so rude .

Fargo, great film

The Talking Bread · 02-01-2019 10:52PM

Delighted. Seems like a smug "know it all" who doesn't clearly "know it all"

Brilliant that Clarkson knew to rub it in!

ShamoBuc · 02-01-2019 10:52PM

He's proper gutted.

He was an eejit to go for it on a whim

An Ciarraioch · 02-01-2019 10:53PM

Blue was my very hazy guess, but a classic case of something we see every day and promptly ignore, so madness to play it.

Andy From Sligo · 02-01-2019 11:03PM

if he had phoned me I could have told him it was blue - I called it up on my laptop as soon as the question was asked

KAMG · 03-01-2019 10:55AM

And the way he kept saying what a difficult question it was. It was a relatively easy question I felt.

i would go as far as to say embarrassingly cringy - we dont need to know that the adverts pay for the prize money or anything else. all he needs to say is "... we will find out after this break!" - that's all he has to do

dublinman1990 · 03-01-2019 10:20PM

Your man Evan is to win £64k when the break is over.

Hannibal_Smith · 03-01-2019 10:20PM

The safety net crap is ruining it. It's way too much pressure.

The Talking Bread · 03-01-2019 10:21PM

I like this guy. Thought I wouldn't but I am rooting for him unlike that smug Scouser last night

Water John · 03-01-2019 10:29PM

He really played it right. Never got over cocky but didn't buckle. Age may have something to do with holding your nerve.

The Talking Bread · 03-01-2019 10:34PM

Clarkson spend 1/4 of the time explaining the rules, a 1/4 of the time cutting to ads, a 1/4 of the times for the ads themselves and the other 1/4 for the actual questions and answers

Water John · 03-01-2019 10:37PM

Pressure, does funny things. Same as the Black Chair in Mastermind. He's a bit edgy.
Have no complaints with Jeremy, enjoy him actually, even though I generally dislike him.
