    Good questions but no point having a show when the quality of the majority of the contestants are so bad. Isn’t there even a check to see if they have any knowledge of music at all?

  • Ten to the top

    Really wanted this to be as good as Popmaster, but, it seems a poor imitation, The host tries but it lacks the fun laid back presentation of Ken Bruce.

  • Be quiet Vernon

    I am fed up of Vernon hinting at the beginning of the podcast at scores and outcomes. If we were lucky enough to be listening live he could not ruin our listening pleasure. Also he forgets to include the score at the end of the first player. Almost tempted to download whole programme and fast forward to quiz so I can eliminate the inane chatter.
