Who Wants to Be a Millionaire with Jeremy Clarkson

The six people waiting to play... So only 1-2 get on each night and the rest get nothing?

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.

You just know he asked for Ask the Host to be added

Really depends on who owns the format. Remember this is in many countries, doubt it would be changed for one presenter in one country.
They just rejigged it to keep it interesting.

Just googled it. Ask the host is available in the Thai and now UK verson. Thai version the contestant picks what he thinks might be correct. Host does the same. UK version the host gives unlimited chat as to what he thinks

You could say maybe it wasn't Jeremy's choice to add it. But it's very coincidental that this version is the one where the format changes. And in fact where he spouts a lot of bull but doesn't actually know anything other than a hash tag has 8 points.

The Erasure question, I mean surely any one who grew up in the 80s knew ridgeley was in Wham, Lowe was in the pet shop boys and Bell was in erasure?

Have to say I am enjoying this series. Only a personal opinion but I think Clarkson is better this time than last and better than Tarrant. Wasn't a huge fan of Tarrant though.

Annoying the number of breaks, and first 5 questions are a waste of time.

I didn't bother with the last 15 mins of last night's show as there was no way they would get through the FFF round and first five questions in 15 mins including breaks. Figure I could pick it up tonight and not miss anything.

Also can't understand the very short series run, just 6 episodes? Perhaps all those frequent ads are at a highly premium rate based on the short run / high audience.

Can someone remind me of the question about alien movie from last night please?

dallas, kane & brett are characters in which 1979 film?
a: alien b: apocalypse now c: d:

I think only this week.

OMG how can he not know answer now, Sean Connery is so old

OMG he picked wrong one, A-ha are not in their 90's like Sean Connery
what an idiot.

Maybe it's his age, but this guy is a simpleton. He's wasted all his lifelines on easy questions, and is still wrong. How can he say that he ruled out Brosnan but still thinks it could be Connery?

Husband is currently having a freak out here beside me saying the same thing!!:D

I mean everyone knows the group A-HA, and it was not in the 50's they were popular, it was the late 80's. Sean Connery was not Bond in the late 80's.
