Game Night’s Fifth Anniversary

By | February 18, 2025

Ooh, fun, keep Saturday 1st March free for a full day of live and interactive quizzing courtesy of Royal Flush and his fifth anniversary Game Night on Twitch that you’ll be able to play along with on your phone/second browser window. Normally his nights run from Saturdays from 8pm, this one’s from 10am going through to midnight (although my money’s on at least a two-hour overrun so bring snacks). There’s something for everyone (through accident or design, it looks the ones in dark blue seem to be the more hardcore formatty quizzes, the ones in green a bit lighter and chattier (Edit: I’ve just been told they’re “guest games” – and he has landed some proper celebs for some of these before), the turquoise ones are games that run automatically so Ben have a break presumably).

We’re normally about on a Saturday evening when we’re able, we will look forward to joining in with some of these. Five years of this sort of thing! Incredible.

    Now that we know that The Winner Takes It All pilot is now called Win Win, does anyone know who the hosts of the pilot were?

      No disrespect intended, but this being the third time you’ve asked who the hosts were suggests that no-one knows.

      Rob and Romesh were suggested on the Discord, though.

        Thank you for telling me. I’ll just wait until it becomes a series should it go forward. I was just expecting an answer right away, hope you understand.

        As someone with autism, I never want people to misinterpret how I ask things so thank you for being respectful in your response. I am the Game Show Guru because I love and know about game shows from around the world. I was actually given that title by Michael McIntyre when my parents and I met him at a taping of the short-lived U.S. version of The Wheel on October 21, 2021.

    You’re welcome, Andrew.

    Turns out we have two things in common – I’m on the spectrum myself, and I too never want people to misinterpret my words. 🙂

      Make that three, because obviously I’m a game show lover too – always have been and always will be. 😉

      Though I do have preferences – for instance, much as the current version of Catchphrase is popular and successful, for me it will just never beat the Roy Walker years.

    No Rachel on Countdown next week, or the week after, or the week after that, as she’s working on another project (as yet unrevealed).

    Dr Tom Crawford – YouTube mathematician and good friend of Rachel – will deputise, making him the first-ever man to put up the letters and numbers and write down the solutions…

    …on the actual regular show, that is. 😉
