I'm pretty sure they've been having non-sports people on for a fair few episodes now (didn't see the NYE special, but i'd seen bits of previous shows). Tragic really. Another nail in the shows coffin is the incorporation of rounds like where the captains act out charades where the other team members have to gues whats on the screen. It becoming more and more like 'They Think It's All Over' with every passing year.....except its even less funny!

What time does it get shown now? The last few have been more late night affairs i think. A sign that its increasing unpopularity has seen it pushed out of its prime-time slot?

Get rid of numbnuts Tufnell & "I'm trying to be funny" Matt Dawson; bring in a couple of serious captains; change the format to the late 1980s & early 1990s and you could actually have a fairly decent sports quiz which I would definitely tune into. Watching them put on items of clothing or eating types of food is something I'd expect to see on Dick & Dom on a Saturday morning.

The irony is there really aren't any decent sports quizzes on TV anymore, so I'd be happy to get the old QoS back!

I don't mind Dawson so much but Tuffnell is the main reason I stopped watching a while back.
He's just not the sort of character I find entertaining, although I accept many probably do.

I also don't like the way they have tried to give the captains more of a role by introducing their own teams - Sue is perfectly capable of doing that!

another thrilling round of QoS with captains using their heads to get round a magnetic course - :shock:
