Each weekday morning on Radio Ex (Exeter) they have a quiz called the " cash dash" where the public can win a grand.The presenter asks callers to phone in to answer three fairly easy questions but before then they have to answer a qualifying question which is so easy its virtually impossible to get wrong.
This morning the qualifier was "what animal is Dumbo".This woman phoned in and the presenter asked her live on air to answer the question.
"Elephant" she shrieked. "Correct" said the breakfast DJ host. Cue pandemonium.The stupid bint could be heard running around her kitchen shouting " Yessss"... Get in..." I love you Ben" (the presenter).Eventually she calmed down and came back to the phone only to be told she had only answered the qualifier and hadn't won the thousand quid.
The woman was mortified , disappointed and embarrassed all in one go.She then went on to fck up the 1st proper question(name the zoo near Torquay..Ans..Paignton and to add to her lack of knowledge didn't have a scooby on question two which was who is Reginald Dwight better known as.
For her sake i hope her friends and family weren't tuned in this morning that said it gave me a right good laugh that i thought i would share with you lot(makes a change from Brexit)
On Chris Tarrant's show on Capital a few years ago a lady had the chance to win a decent sum of cash by answering the question "Who is the voice of ITV's Formula 1 commentary?"
She clearly didn't know and Tarrant said "I'll give you a clue, it's something you suck"
Lady: "Dickie Davies?"
Tarrant: "I'm sorry, Murray Walker was the answer we were looking for."

I think there’s a certain subset of quiz show fodder that are only put on because they are at least as thick and ugly as the average daytime viewer / listener.
'Vitas Gerulaitis was a) An American tennis player or b) a type of yeast infection?"
"Oooooh that's a tricky one.
Toblerone?"

tenable produces some corkers when folk have nothing to lose by guessing
but we have had threads like this before and its far better to give a stupid answer than just say nothing

a friend of mine won a prize on local radio, it was 2 tickets to a football match but to sunderland, not newcastle as he thought
he made a comment, which the dj liked and they ended up recording a 2 minute sketch which was played for weeks, or at least clips from it
i used to think the radio was live
