They finished filming this year’s Fort Boyard just yesterday and so for the first time I’m doing a competition!

Thanks to Reality TV Warriors’ Michael Harmstone for doing the maths (also blame him if they’re wrong), we’ve worked out that of the players who have already played FOUR or more times going into this season, the highest earning by mean average is the legendary Élodie Gossuin who will be playing for the 11th time who has an average win of €15,633.10, and lowest scoring veteran (playing for her fifth time) is Rebecca Hampton who has an average of €11,257.50. A difference of €4,375.60.

Your job is to guess what the difference in final score will be between their teams in their 2022 episodes. For final score we’re including any other bits of business – Masked Warrior bonus, Toujours Plus Fort, anything extra that may or may not have come to light yet. It’s your job to do the research. A team that loses will score whatever the house minimum is this year plus bonuses.

Here is the Google Form for you to send your answers.

The prize is the value of a Boyard as suggested on the show, which we’ll call €10 or sterling equivalent of after the second of the two teams goes out. You must have a PayPal account if you’re outside the UK. You must not be affiliated with the production. One entry per person, I reserve the right to disqualify entries, no correspondence will be entered into. Entries will close 2200 UK time on Friday 27th May.

You can see all of this year’s teams on Fan Fort Boyard.

Good luck!

For years, radio had steadfastly refused to join with #hostholdingaquestioncard the KEY quiz show promo shot of the last fifty years.

However looking at Brain of Britain‘s ticketing site and we’re THRILLED to see Russell Davies taking part in 2022’s HOTTEST quiz show promo shot.

Who will it be next? Will it be Gambo? Fried onion rings? You’ll have to wait and see.

Incredible work.

You were probably hammering the nails into the coffin to be honest.

What’s that? A new show on Netflix that’s a bit like Bullshit which is extremely mediocre? With Ellie Taylor and Danny Dyer? That nobody will watch? It’s the future of television.

In other news Beat the Chasers is on tonight and all week with added Supernerd. I hope the audience takes to him, although I’m still not sure BtC is the correct way to introduce him. Still, though.

That’s right! The stage doesn’t work, the microphones make all the vocals sound like they’re being sung underwater and lots of the good songs have already been knocked out in the semis, but on the plus side Our Boy has a good voice, we’ve got the fun possibility of Ver Fans tying themselves up in knots proclaiming how there’s not and has never been politics in the Eurovision SONG Contest ACTUALLY when Ukraine win and at least there’s a possibility that we get Petra and Mans to host next year.

Basically I’m quite annoyed that not having used it for so long Betfair Exchange are having to verify me when you can *right now* put a tenner on Moldova to win at 450 (up to the tenner currently on offer being laid). Someone was offering 750 earlier, but it looks like there’s a bit of volume in the market around the 200-1 area. All I’m saying is: fun song, great position in the running order.
