Very thick woman on Mastermind just now!

God!  This next one is even worse!

One!  She scored one!  And that was "who starred as the pretty woman with Richard Gere."

Good job it wasn't me! I wouldn't have had a clue.

It was unbelievable!  All of the questions were a piece of cake and she just about passed on all of them.  Heaven only knows why anyone would put themselves up for a quiz if they're that bad.

One of the questions was "what type of animal was Lassie, star of six MGM films in the forties and fifties?"

She answered "A caterpillar."

Well that's obvious........caterpillars don't last that long!

I watched the final one, the blonde bird.

My fish could do better than that.

Frightening levels of stupidity.  Even more frightening that the Beeb thinks these were celebrities.

CBBC presenter ????  dear oh dear .

To go on Mastermind and almost score nothing in your specialist subject was really embarrassing !

Just as well Torquemada wasn't the quizmaster.

Was this the celebrity version? If it was what are you expecting?

Well I also have to admit I was stuck on the first one as this stuff is just not my scene!

I figured it out (not by Google) eventually but I would have been out of time.

Reminds me of a kids programme where they had some random footballer taking questions on the phone.

One kid said "I'd like to go tobogganing with you" and the presenter said "where's boganning"?

I don't know about other posters, but I was referring to the general knowledge round for the final contestant.

In 2 minutes she only got 2 correct.

These vanity projects for celebrities have a habit of exposing them for the lightweights they generally are.

The last two nights of 'Celebrity Mastermind' were both exquisitely cringeworthy, and anyone who witnessed them will unfortunately need 6 months of specialised buttock-unclenching treatment. The 'Celebrity University Challenge' that quickly followed last night was also ghastly. Please remember the Newcastle alumni team in your Christmas prayers.

Sorry, I was referring to the "Pretty Woman" question of which I have never seen.

What would your guess have been to "Which US city has a well known French Quarter?" presume it'd be better than her answer -Paris.

she was clearly thinking of Paris, Texas, not a bad guess imo 

Anyone see it a few nights ago.  Lizzie Yarnold (winter Olympic gold medallist) was first up.  Thought she might be university educated but was spectacularly dim.
Two points on her specialist subject, and about two or three more in the "general knowledge" although the questions were the sort you'd give to seven year olds.

fck me she is stupid.

Anyone  who chooses to launch themselves down a sheet of ice, head first  on a plastic tray , with only their feet to dig into the ice to stop them....

You wouldn't seriously expect them to be overly bright.
