Greek Supermarket Sweep and its stylish host. Rylan take note, although it doesn’t have our banging theme.

Channel 4 press release for The Answer Trap, a new daytime quiz hosted by Anita Rani where teams try and place items in one of two lists, except some of the items have been dreamt up by THE DEVIOUS Bobby Seagull and Frank Paul competing against each other to trick the players and don’t fit into either.

Might be quite fun, actually.

Anne Robinson’s the new permanent host of Countdown.

When Nick Hewer took over we thought “that is an interesting piece of stunt casting” – he went on to host it for almost a decade and is now retiring at 77. Clearly this is also an interesting piece of stunt casting, we’d be lying if we said this didn’t grab our attention and are quite intrigued by the prospect, but she’s only six months younger than Hewer so this can’t be a long term thing, surely?

In other news, various episodes from seasons 34-37 of Wheel of Fortune are now up on Netflix.

Some heads up on some streaming stuff happening over the weekend:

• Ash the Bash is ending his Quiz Night season (don’t worry, the new one starts next week) with a Timeshock invitational extravaganza tonight on his channel from 8pm. The top 24 Quiz Night players from throughout the season battle it out in a special edition of the famous Japanese quiz.
• And tomorrow, Saturday night, I’m appearing on the second game of Royal_flu$h’s Face/Off as part of his grand tournament. It’s sure to be amusing. The stream starts at 8pm, I’m likely to be on 10-ish.

Finally you may be aware we were planning a MYSTERY EVENT for next Sunday night, this is being postponed because of real life, we will reschedule in due course.

I’ve been watching some films recently that may or may not be of interest. They’re all on Amazon Prime right now, and some of them stream on other services.

In Escape Room, Skeet Ulrich is the designer of Escape Rooms and his company, although once successful, is currently down on its luck. That is until he espies a cursed skull box in an old bric-a-brac store which the shopkeeper refuses to sell despite the fact it’s on full display which you’d think would be a silly decision but there we are. Anyway the skull box is cursed but looks wicked so he puts it in his room. Then a group of people try out the room and solve its many puzzles but end up dying because of the demon in the box.

TBH it’s a bit of a crap escape room, it only seems to have about five puzzles in it, it’s no wonder the business is doing badly.

However if that doesn’t appeal, why not try Escape Room? In it group of people go to an escape room for a birthday, but it turns out that if they don’t solve the puzzles they DIE. This one is like a crap knock-off of Saw, but is certainly a better escape room than the escape room in the first Escape Room.

However if you’re not in the mood for those, why not have a look at Escape Room? This big budget high concept film sees a group of invited strangers take on a series of escape rooms, each of which is filled with DEADLY PERIL. It’s effectively a series of set-piece rooms each with only one real puzzle in them, but it’s schlocky fun and has a variety of settings and ideas. Think a slightly less lovable Cube but with worse characters and a variety of sets.

Escape rooms are a great location for horror films, you can’t just run away from peril, you must engage it in order to escape it. Does the panel have any more recommendations for the Sort Of Thing We’d Quite Enjoy?

Speaking of this sort of thing, The Room 4: Old Sins gets released on Steam today (if you haven’t played it on mobile already).
