Why Watch:
The ultimate cure for serious quizzing, blending Rachel Riley's math genius with comedians who barely passed primary school.Series Analysis:
What began as a one-off frankenstein of formats has evolved into Channel 4's most reliable chaos engine. Jimmy Carr continues to herd cats, presiding over a studio where Jon Richardson’s neurotic desire to win clashes spectacularly with the absurdity of guest comedians who can barely spell "conundrum." It is a glorious mess of letters, numbers, and Susie Dent’s uncomfortable grimaces at double entendres. Yet, the famous clock has stopped ticking for now, leaving viewers in an agonizing limbo regarding future episodes following the recent finale. To ensure you aren't left scrambling for a consonant when the renewal news finally breaks, setting a reminder for the next season is the smartest play you can make.Tone: Sardonic, Chaotic, Irreverent Last Updated: January 2026
