Mark Drakeford was pretty prominent in the media during Covid.
Outside of Wales, he was/is an anonymous character. His wife died just over a year ago and that probably drew as many tabloid headlines as anything he’s done in Government. Even so, I was surprised JC didn’t know the name. I bet he’d have known the FM in Scotland at the time although she was very quiet during Covid.

Why oh why do some have to explain why the options are wrong, then say the correct one, just showing of in my opinion. Good show last night.
I think a lot of it is justification, driven by nerves. It can be annoying, "bigging up their part" so to speak.Irish fella did well, all the same, with GBP250k.
Maths teacher burned out quite quickly, but still a decent sum to walk away with.

They are told to, same with any quiz show. They want engaging contestants, plus I imagine it helps with editing to fit the running time - use more or less of their talk, as required.DoctorX said:

They fair rattle through the easy ones, we don't get a lot of life stories, a few snippets for some colour.
I can work with the reasoning bit, we are all doing it in our heads anyway. I knew the Harper Lee one but the WW1 prime ministers, not a clue. That was impressive recall.

Insane gamble from that chap tonight. As if you’d trust the audience on that…
What a baloon he was. I knew the answer and his logic about the Beaufort Sea having anything to do with the Beagle was seriously flawed.The chap from Wales crashed and burned too. It's good viewing though.
