Tuesday, Thursday, Friday 9pm
Right here and on Youtube
#brigstemens
But hey! Alexander Armstrong isn’t the only one going live tonight – so are we, with a three night tribute to Belgian quiz De Slimste Mens ter Wereld. Feel free to tweet us using the hashtag – although I probably won’t read them until afterwards. Seven people across the week competing for a trophy.
Who’ll be the smartest person in the room and who’ll just be left smarting? Join us tonight!
LIVE at 9pm! If you’re watching on catch-up you may need to watch it on the Youtube site until we’ve muted some of the music in the clips. Sorry about that.
Debatable series 2 started yesterday- format pretty much identical but they squeeze an extra question into Round 1 meaning the jackpot is £2,200, a very odd figure. The music and graphics are the same as last series though.
Taskmaster is coming to the states. Alex Horne will be on the show and Reggie watts will be the taskmaster for the series.

Just doing a quick google on Reggie Watts, but Greg Davies looks much more sinister as a Taskmaster. I am glad Alex Horne will feature in the show, and I hope that Tim Key will be a task consultant.
I like Reggie Watts. Really interested to see what tone they go with.
For what it’s worth myself & my SO recently discussed who would be good on a US Version of Taskmaster. Some names we arrived at:
Chelsea Peretti
Adam Conover
Demetri Martin
Aziz Ansari
Carrie Brownstein

Babushka has been confirmed for May 1 at 5pm.
I enjoyed that! I missed the first couple of minutes where you may have explained this already, but presumably the winner tonight (he said, not spoiling) and the winner on Thursday will go into the final along with Scott, the Scott v David v Dan match being retrospectively declared the first qualifier?
Didn’t explain it on the stream but yes that’s basically what’s happening.
As an aside, and without spoiling, I was really panicking with that last question playing out the way it did…
Apropos of nothing, this was a VERY exciting quiz to do and I will gladly throw my hat in the ring again if this ever comes around for another go. And I’ll be sure to remember how the Puzzle round works if I do!!! 😀
No surprises in Italy: Chain Reaction (11th season) and Still Standing are dutifully returning as usual (on June 5th and April 30th respectively)
Paolo Bonolis has renewed his contract with Mediaset for two more years, so more AUA! and Ciao Darwin are to be expected.
We had over 25 people watching by the end, which is very good by usual BB streaming standards. Hope you can all make Thursday!
