Mine would have to be The Chase! My favourite chaser would have to be either Mark "The Beast" or Anne "The Governess" Hegerty😊

Unfortunately, I don't think I could outrun any of them though😅

What about you?

The background is a vibrant television studio set with vertical blue neon light pillars.

    Do you have a favourite chaser @SheffieldMan1976? That's exciting, hopefully you will hear back soon about your application😊

    That sounds frustrating if you're trying to play along at home @SwiftFox!

    Did they? Awww that's a shame! I'll have to try and find some videos of it on YouTube or something.

    Thanks @SheffieldMan1976. Blimey, they didn't do very well, did they. But I bet it's harder than it looks.

    I'm not a fan of Pointless either. They seem to be more focussed on chatting to the contestants than actually answering questions.

    Annoying as the platform isn't bad, and I do like Armstrong as a host, but I'd cut out all of the unnecessary chat and have a 'splitscreen' view to keep the board visible to TV viewers for the duration.

    The one I've been getting back into most lately is Popmaster TV.

    Until they get to the very end and do '3 in 10'. My mind goes blank and I can't remember my own name let alone any song titles. 😄

    I've just had a little look at Popmaster on YouTube @OverlyAnxious. I'd like that but I would do terrible on it! The release date years always seem a lot earlier than I think they are. How do you do watching it?

    I usually do pretty well on the years as I've got a good long term memory. I can often link a track to an event that happened in that year and that helps narrow it down for me.

    The ones I struggle with now are the music video rounds. I used to watch loads of music videos when Freeview first came out and channels played non-stop videos for free via set-top box. Also watched a lot on YouTube up to around 10 years ago. But I rarely see any nowadays.

    I don't like many quiz shows as I find them too dry. I do like Blockbusters though, and Bullseye is nice for the nostalgia.
