Congrats to Possessed for winning the Rose D’or for best gameshow for Pick Me! Frankly not last year’s best gameshow but certainly the best of the three final nominees.
Although seeing as Possessed are effectively the Bother’s Bar All-Stars I expect international format awards to be won at a bare minimum.
Anyway more importantly I said it would happen, just as I said Pointless and Wild Things would win the last few years. Alongside the annual Christmas Day TV bet (long odd wins the last two out of three) it’s a great time to be me frankly. You don’t have to like it, just accept it.
The only way this could have been better would be if you had found (e.g.) some Danes to bet against on it.
If only.
Also well done the entirety of the Eurovision Song Contest for winning their award for entertainment show, although I note the real winner, Petra Mede, was not there to collect the award.
Congrats to Possessed! In my blind optimism, I look forward to Genius Game winning at some point in the near future.
You nearly got the quote right:
“You don’t have to like it – but you better learn to live with it” — a quote from wrestling (1983)
I have, as Louis Walsh would have it, “made it my own”.
You could build at least ten full-scale Crystal Maze sets for one year’s worth of Bake Off set in a tent.
My proposal is to do just that and then film each episode on a different identical set each week.
Has there been any news of a second series of Pick Me? I quite enjoyed it last year.
Well the Rose d’or pitch suggested a second series was coming but there’s been no indication of one through official channels.
