Well at least they painted the floor and dusted the studio a bit....
Agree it won't last.
I think these 'quiz channels' are pretty grim personally - but at least this one seems to be pretty open and honest, constant mentioning of call cost, that it is gambling, that the number of times you can call is limited etc.
Personally, I like Andy Hodgson - I think he's a good presenter - but I wont be watching.
Seriously can I give you an example:
NEXT PERMANENT LABOUR PARTY LEADER?
£3.00 CHUKA UMUNNA (Paddy Power 7/4 return £2.75)
£3.25 ANDY BURNHAM (PP 9/4 return £3.25)
£4.50 YVETTE COOPER (PP 5/1 return £6.00)
£16.67 DAVID MILIBAND (PP 18/1 return £19)
£208.33 JOE PASQUALE (PP no odds cos they no that stupid to offer any)
£5.00 DAN JARVIS (PP 20/1 return £21)
£10.00 TRISTRAM HUNT (PP 10/1 return £11)
£16.67 LIZ KENDALL (PP 13/2 return £7.50)
£16.67 HARRIET HARMAN (PP 22/1 return £23)
So unless you think Liz Kendall or Chuka are going to be leader it's best to stick to the bookies.
They are offering you £5 on a man who has said no to the job due to his wife's death, £16.67 on a woman who has already resigned deputy to be temp leader until they find a permanent replacement and asking you to bet on Joe Pasquale, in other words they are ripping people off by suggesting they bet on Joe Pasquale, I doubt even Paddy Power would have the gall to put him in the betting.
This one is even more ridiculous, the watchdog must look at this:
MON 11TH MAY 2015
HOW TO PLAY
WHO WILL REPLACE DANIEL CRAIG AS THE NEXT JAMES BOND?
£22.50 IDRIS ELBA
£30.00 HENRY CAVILL
£37.50 TOM HARDY
£60.00 M FASSBENDER
£1,562.48 D BECKHAM
£6,249.98 JIMMY KRANKIE
(stake of 7.50 to above)
Who on earth is stupid enough to bet on the last two, yes it maybe amusing but there are silly people out there who will do this.
