Fingers On Buzzers

28 Ben Shephard reaches Tipping Point


Listen Later

In this final episode of season two, Lucy and Jenny wrap-up the history of quiz with a look at some classic and forgotten quiz shows of the noughties. We hear from David Smith, a man who has achieved something that Lucy - as of yet - can only dream of, when he speaks about appearing on Only Connect, which aired the evening before.

This week's Harry Potter themed listener quiz brings-out Lucy's competitive streak, so it's lucky the wonderful Ben Shephard was on-hand to calm things down. Ben gives some fabulous insights about Tipping Point and shows that his love of quiz goes well beyond asking the questions, plus he tells us about being on the receiving end of a fierce mic drop, courtesy of the one and only Gordon Burns.


See you later in the year for Series three!
