Celebrity mastermind

Money? Do they get paid?

Publicity?

High opinions of their knowledge? (or not as the case may be).

I was going to watch it but “celebrity “ ? I haven’t heard of any of ‘em. Recorded but not going to watch now .
I only like the general knowledge rounds anyway. I agree with you ‘ why go on ? ‘ I wouldn’t because there are whole areas of life I haven’t got a clue about.

It was excruciating to watch.

I can't watch it as I annoyOH with the abuse I hurl at them.

Unfortunately some of the so-called celebrities only show their ignorance. But it's quite brave to do that, I suppose, and the money does go to charity, not to them. The general lack of general knowledge isexcruciating.

The lack of knowledge in their specialist subjects is excruciating as well.

The bloke who keeps bees knew virtually nothing about them.

I’ve noticed that the older contestants have more general knowledge than the younger ones.

It was embarrassing to watch, it makes you wonder if some of them even went to school.

I'd never heard of any of those ' celebrities. I only tuned in at the end but a score of 3 is very poor, although celebs don't seem to be embarrassed by their ignorance. The ones on Pointless weren't much better.

Perhaps when they get under the spotlight, their minds just go blank!

Their minds are blank to start with they've got now't between their ears.

I watched the previous week when Anne Widdecombe was beaten into second place by a very nice gay bloke that I'd never heard of. It was worth watching just to see her having to applaud him

I read that the celebrities do get paid. Otherwise why would they put themselves up for ridicule if they don’t know much. One of the websites said that the celebrities go home with more money than the charities they’re supposed to be playing for which is rather sad. I thought they were doing it out of the goodness of their hearts. That shows how naive I am

You're not naive, Gemini. Well, if you are then I am too! I didn't think they got paid.

Aw thank you NTO . The older I get the less I know. ?
