Three contestants are allowed to call on the help of "The Think Tank" made up of 8 or so people. The implication being, I presume, that the think tank knows stuff.
So, what answer do they give?
Which animal's name derives from the Greek for "River horse"? Elephant.
Windhoek is the capital of Cape Horn
Hillary Clinton is the Vice President of the US
The Battle of Trafalgar was fought in the 18th Century by The Duke of Wellington.
Is it me??

Called Think Tank apparently. And fairly obviously, I guess.

Hmmm, Even I knew all the correct answers to that one.

I would have thought that even someone who didn't know the right answers would have known that those weren't them.

Mind you, to be fair, Hilary does think she is the VP

Which reminds me. In US security speak, POTUS is the president of the United States, and FLOTUS is the first lady of the United States. What are they going to call Bill when Hil gets elected?

You're not getting me off the subject of the BBC. I rarely watch linear channels from the UK, the time difference, the endless security and the shite broadband connections here make it too hard to be worthwhile. But today I did....
Escape to the Country
Think Tank
Flog It
Pointless
The One Show
Jeez, just shoot me now.

(TBH, I've realised that, since I gave up work, I probably watch less TV than I ever did, and I've never watched much). |

I love Homes Under The Hammer. Utterly addictive. When one is off sick of course.

HutH is indeed entertaining, although now Lucy Wotsit is leaving it may be less so. I hear there's already an additional presenter, but I haven't seen him yet.
Anything with Dom "I wanted to be Mike Brewer" Littlewood which often seems to be on around the same time is more shit than a shit thing. Probably even worse than anything which actually does have Mike "put it there" Brewer in it.

Switch to ITV. Grab a couple of cans of Special Brew, a slice of last night's pizza, put your feet up and you'll pee yourself laughing at their daytime comedy lineup.
Stuff like Jeremy Kyle and This Morning.

OK, Mr. Tyred, if you are compelled to watch television, what do you watch from choice?
