The London Roller Girls on BBC's Eggheads

I've never watched Eggheads before, but that was REALLY exciting! The girls (and Bigcat) recorded that about 5 months ago and refused to tell what happened!

They have answers written on thier hands, hand signals to give the answers to the others and are generally a big bunch of cheating bastards.

Not really - I answered all the questions he got right correctly as well, and he's a proven quiz genius, and the question that the LRG team got was HORRIBLE.

I heard what happens is they make you send a team of six people to the show, do various intelligence tests and whoever scores highest is asked to be your reserve.

I'm pretty sure that we chose our own reserve? I don't know, I'll ask Talita, she was the reserve!

Still, LRG got pretty much every question right but that last one, and it was a bitch of a question.

It's just such a rubbish format for a quiz show. The concept is awesome - quiz geniuses versus the plebs, but somehow they manage to turn it into the proverbial sow's ear.

No, that's not true. We did have to do a written quiz and a verbal quiz, but I'm pretty sure I scored highest in the written quiz and I was on the team!

It was just a bastard of a question, unfortunately.

That was a really exciting episode - I had a total adrenaline rush watching it!

I won't say any more in case anyone else has yet to watch it.

Me too!!! I was jumping up and down and shouting at the screen, even though I knew it was filmed in, like, March or something.

SO AWESOME.

Man, if MURDA ever do anything similar, I'm front and centre, as I fancy myself as a bit of a quizzer. I was almost nearly on Uni Challenge, dontcherknow. (well, I was captain of my uni's second placed team, but my uni wasn't taking it seriously that year and so I don't think any of our teams were entered)

We had a trivial-pursuit-off to chose the team for that, so we did end up with all the cleverest people on the team :)
