The 1% Club

Which two letters complete this sequence?

T N E C R E P E

On a digital 24-clock that displays hours, minutes and seconds, how many times in each 24-hour period do all six digits change simultaneously?

These two questions were not featured on high brow quizzes like 'Only Connect' or 'University Challenge'. Instead they were on a new prime time Saturday evening game show on Britain's biggest commercial TV channel, if you please. Scarcely credible really.

'The 1% Club' is clearly something a bit different. It certainly includes all the elements of a successful game show.

1) Easy to follow format 2) Witty and likeable host 3) Great interaction with contestants 4) Exciting climax to the show.

What separates it out from the crowd are the questions, which stay away from general knowledge. Instead there are logic and reasoning problems, that become more challenging as the show progresses. You can play along at home, and even discuss questions with friends and work colleagues later in the week. 'The 1% Club' deserves to be successful and I just hope it finds an audience.

By the way the answer to the two questions are:- A) N O B) 3 times during the day.

And if you got both of those correct you are clearly in 'The 1% Club' and will surely enjoy this breath of fresh air to Saturday evening TV.

Lee Mack is brilliant as the host of this quiz show. His quick wit with the contestants is as entertaining as the programme itself.

100 contestants start off. Whenever they get an answer wrong they are eliminated. The questions start off very easy then gradually get harder as the show progresses. Once they reach the final question the winner can either take £10k or answer a question that only 1% of people can get right and then win £100k.

It would be good fun for the whole family to watch together and compete with each other. I used to do this with my wife but she is as thick as mince and rarely gets past question two!

Absolutely love this programme. Great format, well presented and produced. Very inclusive, as everyone can give it a go! Fantastic entertainment! Loads of fun to play as a family at home. What about an 'app' version?!

ITV's latest game show off the production line, and actually this wasn't half bad.

In Lee Mack you have a host that can actually give the contestants a bit of lip back, and the format isn't needlessly complicated (hi 'Limitless Win').

It's a bit slow, and won't be for everyone, but I enjoyed what I saw and hope it does well.

I had heard about the 1% Club but wasn't too sure what it was about, but when I heard that Lee Mack was the host, I knew that I had to check it out and I was pleasantly surprised. I love that the questions are not general knowledge-based, it is more like an IQ test, it's fun and quirky and had me playing along since the first episode. Some of the questions really make you think and you think how good you are, but I am sure once you are on set it takes it all into a whole new ball game. I love Lee's interaction with the audience members, he is a fantastic host. This show has definitely got me hooked.
