Another contestant:That Oxford debate was related to something which I consider to be pretty huge in the history of this country. I don't expect anybody to know the speech line by line, but Lange's quip is the part of that debate that always gets shown. When Lange died a few years back, you couldn't watch the news and not see that excerpt... unless you're the kind who is shy of the news. Again, yr gnrl knwldg sux. Plz die. |
While I agree with you regarding the David Lange quote, in general, the questions on the NZ version
are harder than on the classic UK (which is what we're all accustomed to watching thanks to Primes re-runs. Seems a lot of folks didn't even know they'd ditched that first quick-fire question ages back...). The OZ and UK usually give the contestants a cake-walk to $1000, before they start asking anything that's actually hard.
Maybe our local question-masters are just useless at coming up with 'easy' questions.
