No, in You Bet you had to make a decision based on whether you thought someone would succeed or not - this is PURELY luck.

Funnily enough, ITV commissioned a pilot of Red and Black eight years ago and canned it for basically the same reason I said it's shite: http://www.guardian.co.uk/media/2011/se ... lack-pilot

Yeah. Well the challenges on the show have that You Bet feeling. But it's basically the same thing as Deal or No Deal and it's all about luck and no skill and honestly I hate shows like that. At least with Who Wants to Be A Millionaire? and Million Pound Drop, you have to have some form of knowledge. But I am basically repeating what you and a few others have said already.

A bit like the Matt Fincham thread, BB is something that should have just been left to die quietly.
