Advantages: compulsive viewing

Disadvantages: pathetic contestants

I have phoned up this quiz show dozens and dozens of times. They have never once rang me back. It is not surprising that nobody has yet hit £1 million. The first 5 questions are a waste of time because they are so silly and easy that my Labrador dog could answer them! (and he's 12yrs old - 84yrs old really). Then the questions get more difficult because they start asking general knowledge quiz questions. The average person is not a quiz buff and cannot cope with these questions. I suggest to Chris Tarrant and the producer that if they want somebody to win £1 million, they had better find a better way of selecting the contestants.

It is much better to watch the programme when somebody has a reasonable grasp of general knowledge and can get up to £64,000 or £125,000. It is really painful to watch when people's general knowledge is abysmal!

There are lots of people like myself with a good general knowledge who could give Chris Tarrant a genuine run for his £1 million. Otherwise, we might have to wait forever!
