Richard Osman's House of Games

The simplicity of just getting playing a quiz show for celebrities just works perfectly. My family absolutely loves quiz shows and the fact that there is an abundance of questions on an entertaining programs is under appreciated.

This quiz is so fun to watch, friendly banter between contestants and host, it's a pleasure.

Less here is more: One presenter, smaller set, fewer but celebrity, indeed top-flight, fun and interesting contestants.

The broad-brush bland-urbanity of charmer Alexander Armstrong somehow always made Richard Osmands interjections awkward - he never engaged with them, merely paused then passed on. It made RO's presence seem rather inexplicable if not actually pointless. Some might even suspect a Gatling-Fenn gambit or two. I recognise one at least.

Here though surprisingly RO blossoms as the sole presenter, the participants too seem to be very comfortable. The format is simpler but more engaging, faster moving and more fun - for participants and viewer.

Great quiz show that doesn't take itself too serious and one that you can easily play along with, without having to have vast general knowledge.

I'll be honest, I didn't like this show when it first aired, now I never miss it. It's fun, it's different, and it's always entertaining. I love the mix of guests that appear, it's interesting to see how their minds work, and just how they interact with their intelligent host.

Osman is excellent as the host of the show, he's smart and funny, I love his dry humour.

Yes it's high brow, I get why this show would be seen as irritating for some, but appreciate it for being different, for making people think in a totally different way.

I totally love watching it. 8/10.
