After all the TV shows are finished on terrestrial channels they now show a roullette show however quite a few years ago this timeslot was filled with a show called Quiz Call - it was absolutely dreadful. It consisted of a semi demented host taking calls from drunk people asking then to guess a clue such as an animal with five letters. Of course the answer was never something simple like horse it would be an obsure Lithuanian earthworm that no-one could even pronounce.
The show was run by a bit of a scallywag and the show eventually got booted off the air.
Anyone who is lamenting the lack of something to watch in the lockdown and thinking TV is really bad - it genuinely could be worse.
I used to watch this shite!
It was for some reason entertaining, to my 17 year old brain.
Even though I couldnt participate, I'd frequently email and they'd read my emails out on air.
I was a weird kid though
Yes I remember well - and won £300 on one of the stupid questions
......... bean
......... table
......... grinder
Cost me around £150 on phone bill and I was invited to a focus group in Edinburgh and paid an extra £60 for my opinions.
