Watching this now, i think a few of these guys dont quite understand the concept of the show haha

Bruno was piss funny

froch came across as such a miserable old cove didn't he.

didn't once laugh at any of bruno's gags.

James Degale didnt know the 'coin' question.

I was thinking that. If was as if he had no personality on there whatsoever.

I am no DeGale fan, but that chunky bit was piss funny.

Ann - "Why do they call you Chunky?"

James - "Because I have a layer of fat around my stomach."

Ann - "Can they see your chunky bits when you appear naked in magazines."

James - "No, because I have a glove on my hand covering it."

But he has no personality anyway, he is such a boring, dreary person, complete opposite of him in the ring.

He came accross as a nicer guy than he sometimes does outside the ring, I think he's basically a shy but quite nice guy and all the slagging everyone off is to hide that.

Froch is a good boxer - and good boxing commentator. maybe he just didn`t really enjoy the show - or being on it

He seemed ok to me. Just focusing on what was happening.

All the questions were really easy but did anyone else think that Bruno's questions were really easy?

I missed it who won and who came across the best?

Maybe he didn't find them funny.

Froch has sharp teeth, but otherwise your not to far wrong there.

With regards Bruno, he's good entertainment... but he seems a little medicated to me nowadays !

Frank was not medicated, thats how he really is!!!

thought Bruno was irritating and childish, to be honest.

Froch was a bit grim on there. Ann Robinson says to him, "You couldn't be bothered to bank it." Froch, deadly serious: "Big crime". It was quite funny, really. Seems like he doesn't like Robinson.

I don't blame him
