Richard Osman's House Of Games

[Mark81]

Love HOG too. It is literally one of the few programmes my OH can tolerate these days As well as Masterchef. Though he hates Gregggg.
Kemah Bob's voice And she never shuts up.
I love Where is Khazakstan, The emoji round, The nice round, and the one where they all stood up and had to name things in a catagory eg US states without an E (though I think they have dropped that one sadly).
I recently watched the series again with Ingrid Oliver when she and Richard met and fell in love. Quite sweet to see it in retrospect.

No I'm sure the stand up round is still there. Swear it was on one recently.

Oh that's good. I genuinely get muddled up as we watch the new series on BBC2, then often the ones on Channel 19 (is it Pick?).

Amazing to think they film them all in one day. How often must they have to refilm a bit when someone forgets and doesn't say 'yesterday' or 'tomorrow'

 

[kachoochoo]

another big fan here

love where is kazakhstan and answer smash

mr kcc always, *always* starts talking just as the music fades out in the intros round and I lose my train of thought completely!

I only recently found out that Richard met his now long term girlfriend when she was a contestant on House of games
(don't know why I found it so juicy ) they were also lovely together on that celeb antiques road trip too.

They are married! Last year I think.
She's very beautiful. Not surprised he was smitten.

Oh wow I didn't know they'd married,
I do remember her being on the show though ( love HOG btw)

 

[klarakluckbag]

I LOVE HOG. I just wish the Answer Smash segment was longer as that’s the fave in our house

Everyone else in my house hates Answer Smash because I always win it!

Ingrid Oliver is my girl crush

 

[laughing]

Love this!
We have weekly competition at home for this programme

 

[Crumpet41]

Yes! Patsy Kensit springs to mind. Only there for the paycheck. As a massive quiz geek it absolutely infuriates me!

Yes i remember PK a well. It’s even worse when Richard really tries to actively engage them in the game and yet they still carry on just sitting there completely unengaged.

Hahaha yes I know what you mean about Kemah Bob’s voice - it does grate . She is quite clever though I think .

I saw her do an interview where she explained that one of her friends for a wedding gift, got her a personalised suitcase just like the house of games one, but with her silhouette on it which I thought was very sweet.

We also can't stand Egg and his backwards laughing

They did There's No I In Osman in the last few weeks I'm sure!

I love this show! My favourite round is the averages one.

The only thing that grates on me is the repeated jokes. Every time the dartboard is available someone will inevitably make a joke about throwing darts at Richard's face The 'Richard's Junk' joke is wearing thin too.

Me and my wife hate this round along with the dates one

We like all the words rounds, most of the pairs rounds and we have a love hate relationship with Kazakhstan

 

[laughing]

Hate the swopped vowels!

 

[Jelly Bean]

Hate the swopped vowels!

So do I!
I actually find it quite baffling.

I think one of my favourites is the emoji round. I love the contestants lateral thinking.

 

[kachoochoo]

I normally really like swapped vowels, but today's was not a good un

 

[Mark81]

Not a fan of the new round where they replace one word in the answer with a contestants name. Just seems a bit pointless and silly

AYYYYY!!!!

We also don't like it

Worst of the new rounds for sure

 

[kachoochoo]

stuck in the middle with you being an answer!

the question writers know what they're doing!

 

[MeghanSnarkle]

The bizarre round of there's a cat on my keyboard what is the answer ? looks slightly faked/reaching
