1% Club - good quiz for kids!

[BernadetteRostankowskiWolowitz]

Not a fan of Lee Mack, but this quiz is good for kids. Dcs are 7 and 10 and loved playing along. It's all logic/sequences etc not general knowledge.

Would recommend.

Thanks. We do like a good family quiz show.

I really liked this. Lee Mack seemed to keep it together and flowing. I hate quiz shows generally because of the hosts catch phrases and repetition. Only 30 seconds to answer kept us on our toes.

Just watching it. God some thick people. The woman who thought the parents had 12 children!

I'm watching this now and I think they've missed a massive trick.

Not everybody has a 60" 4K TV - we would really love to play along, but so many of the questions that use graphics go far too small to see. Why don't they make them full-screen for the 30 seconds? They don't even show anything else pertinent during the remaining 27 seconds, just random camera angles of the whole studio.

So irritating when they ask "Which of these four pictures is the odd one out/impossible?" - and then you see the first two pictures, but, after three seconds, they all go too small to see and we have no idea what's in the last two pictures.

Great idea, very poorly executed. I really can't believe they didn't think of this.

They do similar on House of Games, put the questions up, then pan to the contestants, Grrr

It's frustrating. We always pause the show while we ponder.

So do we, Giving us about 2 mins to get the answer😁

I must be a big kid then YY to the question being to small I end up standing right in front of the telly!!

My 10 year old loves this programme. Embarrassed to say she has thrashed me at this :0

As we have only a 28" I'll give it a wide berth.

Shame as it sounds good.

Agree. It is really annoying. Too small and too short a look. We are wondering if the audience get a much better view.

@HappydaysArehere I don't think they do as on the first question which is always the 3 picture options quite a few who have got it wrong have said it's because they couldn't see it clearly.

We are wondering if the audience get a much better view.

I'm not convinced that they do. There was at least one question (last week or week before) where one man was out because, as he said, he just couldn't se it very well. I suppose it could have been an excuse, but he sounded genuine to me - like it's a common occurrence (unable to see small things in general, not necessarily being on a TV quiz show!) and something that he's just grown resigned to over time.

It's meant to test your mental observation and logic skills, not your visual abilities. Less lofty gameshows like Pointless and Tenable make adjustments for contestants who use wheelchairs or have mobility/standing issues - and you barely even notice it, because that isn't the factor that they're actually there to be tested on.

I don't like to generalise, and I may well be wrong, but I wonder if the people in charge of The 1% Club behind the scenes are young professionals, with excellent eyesight AND the latest technology at home; and it isn't something that they've really thought about. There's been at least one lady I can remember who has been on Only Connect and University Challenge (also The Chase, iirc), who is blind, and they've made equitable adjustments for her - the former two giving her the questions on a card in Braille so that she 'sees' the question at the same time as the sighted contestants do.

I realise that (sadly) probably isn't possible or practical when the question is an involved picture - but they could at least show it much bigger (possibly with individual screens for those in the studio who need them) so that those with reasonable sight have a fair chance too. If it were a 'Britain's Sharpest Eyesight' type contest, than fair enough; but that's not what this is supposed to be at all.

Thank you TuTuLemon. This is an aspect of the show that needs improving. I suppose we are watching pre recordings so perhaps the complaints will be accommodated later on. Hope so as it is enjoyable in the main.

I've seen articles about it online too so hopefully they take it onboard if there is going to be another series!
