I was disappointed to hear the CHASE had ended but looked in on ‘Take on the Twisters’ gave is 20 minutes before I started to feel embarrassed for all concerned I will never watch it again it was dreadful.
I agree with Kate Peel. I was bored within 10 minutes. Presenter was rubbish and I felt sorry for the contestants. Thought the format of the game was too weak and not challenging. I won’t be watching.
OMG!!!…..”Take on the Twisters”…….Question: In which year did Seb Coe last win an Olympic medal?…..1980 ? 1984? or 1988?…..Contestants answer????1990 !!!!!!….and she is a fire fighter SAME contestant…..Who made their James Bond debut in “Goldeneye”?….her answer:…..PIERS MORGAN!!!!!….hilariously dumb ……This really is the worst quiz show for years…………

The Sahara is the largest hot desert with sand.
‘ Take On the Twisters’ ( ITV 3 ) 5pm daily, is one of the worst TV quiz shows ever! It has all the excitement of a valium keg party. It is hosted by some charmless bint that exudes the charisma of a lugworm. The general knowledge questions wouldn’t give Wayne Rooney any grief, the contestants seem to have been hand picked from a special needs singles club…..come back ‘ The Chase ‘ please……
