    As an American, I love Jeopardy, but other game shows are too over the top and dumbed down. I just discovered this show on UA-cam, mad respect to you Brits who aren't afraid to have a serious, witty, and intelligent game show. I feel like this show tests your brain more due to the puzzle like nature of the questions. I don't get all the UK stuff as an American, but what a quiz show! I feel so much better today know that this exists and has an audience.

      It helps that it's made by the BBC, and so it doesn't have to rely on making programmes that will attract sponsorship or advertising revenue. We have our fair share of banal/lowest-common denominator quiz shows on the commercial channels.

But she also herself wronfully said he was a failed candidate, so if she thought that, I can understand why she gave them another guess. Still a mistake though.

    Yes Millard Fillmore was the 13th U.S. president as a member of the then-major Whig party. More pertinent to the connection here, however, is that he failed in a re-election bid as a member of the newly formed American, or Know-Nothing Party, four years after leaving the office.

    15:50 The map highlighting New Guinea only shows the Indonesian side. I was thinking it was the largest islands until I saw that. Bad map.
    "It's actually cut," I thought the guy said. Which means he was unfairly dinged as well. But on relisten, he actually said, "Is that Jakarta?" Which is a not an island anyway, and the city is not on that island.
    Still, bad map.

That was the only time he ran for President (he had been Zachary Taylor's veep and succeeded him when he died)and it's the one being referred to in the question because the whigs were one of the two main parties during his presidency (the party collapsed at the end of his presidency).

    Bison, Moose, Samurai, Sheep. I don't think that was fair. Any word that doesn't have a distinct plural form could be the fourth card, and we're not narrowing it down to a category like say quadruped mammals because there's a samurai in there. I'm under the impression this stage in the show is about connecting four elements that have some sort of order, like the stages of grief (in order), hypothetical regnal names for the latest US presidents (in order), or something like that. That's the only way you can expect a team to guess the fourth card before it's revealed.
    Fun, help, shrimp, advice - the last card could have been anything.

      Edward Queen In the first round, it’s just about finding the connection, not about finding the fourth one in the sequence.

      Even if it had been the second round, it would have been fine.
      If they'd said "shrimp," and they gave the proper reasoning, Victoria would accept the answer even if the image was a sheep, because as long as you give an example of something that would fit the criteria to be in that fourth spot, it's fine.

      That was one the few I got, actually. So, by default, it's valid. Also, Star Trek.

    Having a hairstyles round when you've got a team with two women vs a team with three youngish lads was kinda bullshit.

    Changing to Egyptian symbols is such a weak decision. Unbelievably bad.
