Oh dear - complete failure on Agatha Christie books. With the amount of TV adaptations, films etc I thought he would have done better than he did.

This team are really poor! Chap just chose "Kate Bush had a no 1 hit with Jane Eyre" as the true one for the final crossing!

They were faced with subjects they didn’t know much about, flags was a nice one but rest were tricky if you had to guess!

I agree you can know lots of stuff but when you don't it's just guess work.
After all Kate Bush was 40 years ago wasn't she??

Go on, Ross, rub his nose in it! IMO, and Ross I think, is that anyone who doesn't read novels deserves everything they get!

Even if you do not read much, Agatha Christie is part of the British DNA!
IMO.
He actually almost ruled out Orient Express!

I know! "It's too obvious cos it's got Murder in the title.". The film is on every Christmas!

I did feel sorry for the last contestant though. Knights was a tough one, I didn't even get half way across.

Yes - it was one of those ones where so many of the choices were men could very well have been Knighted.

Excitable - but fun - team today. Did really well despite being openly honest about guessing several answers.
£3,500 won.

Yes that girl had no idea about commonwealth countries did she, but she did well.

Yes, she was clearly having fun which is what it is all about.
Although they won a decent prize.

Disappointing show for the celeb team, and they are not lacking in brains with Rory Bremner and Susan Calman among the players. Shows how tricky this show can be.
The words that appear in the song Angels was inspired - I was singing it frantically. Fine with the longer words, they stand out, its the little ones that you trip up on.

The last lady was really confused with the words. I don't really think she understood what she was being asked. I can't remember her name she's on everything atm. She was on House of Games last week too - not that good on that either.
I think she was a teacher prior to being a comedian. Perhaps she'd have been great at maths or science.
It wasn't the easiest round at all.

I found it confusing too but got the hang of eventually.
