Topic: Eggheads

[iamnant]

Kevin - absoulte c*nt.
CJ - smug bitch.
Daphne - sweetheart.
Chris - an actual egghead. His shaped is uncannily egg-shaped. Still an arrogant oldie.
Judith - off her tits on acid every episode. I'm pretty sure of it.

[seanoevil]

CJ - just lookin at him makes me wanna smash the fuck out of him

[bigal]

Sums it up perfectly. He's an arrogant smug twat

[kavah]

daphne is so brainy - i don't think  i've seen her get a question wrong.

[M(oaning) B(ecomes) E(mbarrassing)]

How anyone can have not voted for the appalling CJ is beyond me.  His whole attitude is one of sniffy superiority.  I especially love it when one of his own team gets a question wrong and his face goes like a rent boy who's just taken delivery of an unusually large and unexpected package via the tradesman's.

Whilst I agree CJ's a c*nt here's a picture of Daphne as a kid, she's the girl at the front

[davidg]

CJ, but I would use the gun to twat him around the head (Ray Liotta in Goodfellas style) Then I would fire the single bullet into the air in celebration.

Aye, there is the offensive Dame Judy of upper-clarss snobbishness about her, isn't there? 

[Filler.]

No chance to vote for Dermot Murnaghan then? Disappointing.

'Watched' it for the first time the other day thanks to the snooker because a chess team were playing them. That's what the telly people told me anyway and for some stupid reason, I kept the TV on thinking that Kramnick and Anand et al would have turned up, but no, it was some bloody chess club.

I saw a bit today, and one of the eggheads went gooey eyed in feigned confusion about Schoenberg and I just wanted to slap him.

However, the taxi driver, yer man on the left with the grey hair is ace. 

[wickolfc]

Kevin is good, i like him.

[rushyman]

Chris is a Fat Wanker

CJ is a smug c*nt who pretends he knows everything he's not being asked

The two women are evil

and the other one with the black hair I havent got much against. But would still shatter his cheekbones

Wheres Dermot gone??

My mate went on it a few months back, she said Jeremy Vine was hosting and they'd got rid of the entertainment category, in place of which are two separate categories 1. film and tv 2. music

My team's got an audition next month too

I turned off in disgust! Vine is doing a strange impression of Dermot.

[rednile]

Why do most of them feel the need to explain why the 2 incorrect answers are indeed wrong , instead of just telling us the fucking answer . Nobheads .

[The Manhattan Project]

They should cancel it, and replace it with Going For Gold with Henry Kelly.

[I Like Boobs]

They should cancel it, and replace it with Going For Gold with Henry Kelly. fifteen to one with William G. Stewart.

[lfcss]

They should cancel it, and replace it with Going For Gold with Henry Kelly.

Actually heard that this was coming back but will be on Channel 5.

[Degs]

A girl I know is going on it.

[The Manhattan Project]

It will only work if Henry Kelly does it, and if the format is once again European nations against each other.


I also recommend bringing back Blockbusters.

Yep, that too.

[The Bill Hicks Appreciation Society]

Actually heard that this was coming back but will be on Channel 5.

There was a blatant rip off called "One to Win" on channel 5. The host was a fella called Paul Roseby and he was completely clueless but hilarious cos of it. It was also made by Grundy I believe the same production company that made Going for Gold.

[Slave]

Daphne is the best there, I used to watch her on 15-1 after I got home from school back in the day.

[Madigano]

CJ is the worlds biggest cock, considering he ain't even that clever hes a smarmy bastard!!

Id kill him!!

[sabbathfan]

I fucking hate CJ. I have made it my life's purpose to destroy that man. I am currently being trained by a lonely Sicilian hitman who loves milk. When I am ready I will don the rounded shades and the black beanie hat and I will seek out CJ and end him.

[kitster]

I think todays was about the first in about 20 when CJ was actually in the final round

[flw]

Cj gets my vote , he is" the weakest link "

[The Manhattan Project]

CJ's an arsehole.

Always rolling his fucking eyes at everything.

Smug bastard.

[mjgill85]

[Mavis Cruet]

Daphne off Eggheads won the first series of Going for Gold

http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=KvKeWV20nIk

She looks older there than she does now.

[ashy9]

How could anyone not vote for CJ, he is the biggest tosser out there. I would destroy him.

[Regi]

CJ is up there with Cliff Richard, Ken Barlow and Thatcher as certainties for the front row in Operation Cannon Fodder...if ever such a battle took place.

Got this off another site just about sums things up!

The quiz champions who compete on the show are Kevin Ashman (winner of British Quiz Championship, European Quiz Championship, World Quizzing Championships, Fifteen to One, Mastermind, Brain of Britain and Mind Sports Olympiad), CJ De Mooi (winner of BrainTeaser, 100%, The Weakest Link and Mensa chess champion), Daphne Fowler (winner of Fifteen to One, Brain of Britain and Going for Gold), Chris Hughes (winner of Mastermind, International Mastermind and Brain of Britain) and Judith Keppel (first British winner of one million pounds on Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?). An impressive list eh? Are they humbled by their success? Are they fu...

Looking at each Egghead in turn, you begin to understand why the show is so good at making anger. Kevin Ashman, with his haircut of a mass murderer is a dour bugger who really needs to cheer up. I have never seen him smile. If he did, the sky might crack and flood blood. CJ De Mooi is a rare one. Although I fear he may be harshly edited on the show, he doesn't help himself by wincing and pursing his lips everytime a contestant answers a question. He's got a shed at home where he keeps his superfluous smugness.

Daphne is a wolf in sheep's clothing. On the surface of things, she looks like a nice lady. She also looks like she really wants everyone to win some money. However, catch her in a wide angled shot and you'll see peevish little looks when things go against her and her team. Chris Hughes is a mountain of smug. He's an amazing man. Like the others, there is no doubting his great knowledge, but by God, you don't have to ram it down our throats you great dolt! What he has in general knowledge, he lacks in people skills. Then we've got wonky mouthed Judith Keppel who, for all the world looks like someone who has been plonked on the show thanks to her celebrity status (after ...Millionaire) and is completely resented by the rest of the Eggs.

Once you get over the incredibly annoying Eggs and sidestep your fury, you begin to notice the questions. When it comes down to it, at crucial moments in the game (be it a sudden death play-off thing), the Eggheads' get mind numbingly easy questions. Some pub team from Rotherham get a question like "How many matches have been played in professional football since time began... as this is sudden death, you won't get the options...". Then the Eggheads will get "Who was Prime Minister in 1964?" You may not know the answer, but a regular quizzer laps that stuff up. I'm not even going into those giant screens behind each team that makes you feel like you're watching some giants quizzing with dwarves. In short, I keep watching this show thanks to some unkind scheduling... but the fact remains... I WANT AN INQUEST (that, or a life would do me nicely).

[Andy @ Allerton!]

Eggheads is ace.

You're all just jealous you haven't got the charisma and looks of the chaps and chappesses representing the intellectual set.

[jason42]

I can't get over  how fucking stupid some of the contestants are!!! Yes they might know who wrote some obscure piece of prose from the 12th fucking century but they don't know who Steven Gerrard plays for etc etc.

Judith is the weakest Egghead. Almost every time they do the final round she is sat on her own in the question box probably wringing one out off camera. 

[Andy @ Allerton!]

It does annoy me when either the 'eggheads' or the competitors, instead of answering the question (Which they clearly know) instead deal with it like;


Question: "Which countries were responsible for the creation of Concorde"

Answers

A: Britain and France
B: South Africa and Outer Mongolia
C: Kazakstand and Ireland


Answer..

"Well.. Looking at that, the fact that the Concorde had a nose that altered its shape to best achieve its attitude, and given that I've seen the film 'Borat', starring Sacha Baron Cohen in which he, as a part of his journey engaged in a 'road trip' affair with some students, and his character of course was portrayed as being from Kazakstan, in the film he made no reference to his countries achievements as being part of the concorde project - so I think you can rule out Option C, Option B also seems unlikely as South African Airways,  which is South Africa's flag carrier and largest domestic and international airline company, with hubs in Cape Town and Johannesburg and is one of the top airlines in the world due to its fine safety record never had a concorde they flew - and add to that the fact that British Airways and Air France used to fly that particular aircraft, I'd be plumping for option 1. Especially when you consider that was a product of an Anglo-French government treaty, combining the manufacturing efforts of Aérospatiale and British Aircraft Corporation. With only 20 aircraft ultimately built, the costly development phase represented a substantial economic loss. Additionally, Air France and British Airways were subsidised by their governments to buy the aircraft. Concorde was the more successful of the only two supersonic airliners to have ever operated commercially, the Tupolev Tu-144 being the other. The Tu-144 had a higher maximum speed, but required more fuel and had less range than Concorde....


... So...My answer is 'A'... 'Britain and France....'

[Ziltoid]

I fucking agree with you, it happens in every fucking quiz (apart from Mastermind and Uni Challenge).  It's like they have to justify the fucking answer, when they should be saying "Fucking hell, that's piss easy - Britain and France"  It's like giving the masses time to have a think about the question at home.

Btw, i hate the c*nt in the orange shirt
