Humphrys steps down from Mastermind. Who to present next?

[Orang Utan]

Only Connect is too hard to get involved with and too smug. Only catch the end of it sometimes though. Never seen the chase.
Best tv quiz ever was 15-1 - no fucking about, just questions and answers

 

[eatmorecheese]

Roy Walker. Or Wolf from Gladiators.

 

[Orang Utan]

Yes indeed. Still a shite quiz though

Indeed. It may be money for the contestants but it’s supposed to be entertainment for everyone else

 

[two sheds]

Yep was thinking earlier - surely the only possible way you'd find that entertaining would be to imagine that you're the one who's answering the questions and imagining winning the money. Which holds no attraction for me whatsoever.

The specialist subject round is normally boring as fuck unless the odd times it is something I know about. However I do enjoy watching contestants who score highly on their subject but are absolutely crap on the general knowledge round.

I would prefer if it was all GK.

Aye for me, the fun of quiz shows is taking part alongside the questions, not someone trying to win big prizes.

Although the Blankety Blank cheque book and pen was surely a most coveted item.

Need to jazz the format up a bit, replace the specialist subject round with darts and have an opportunity to win a speedboat. Now that would be a quiz.

Again with quiz show experience, what about Vic and Bob?

it should be more like the auld krypton factor, with running round and zip wires and the like
