Unlike other game shows, there’s no need to swot up on general knowledge, history, sport or other pub quiz staples, because the key to winning is common sense and logic. 

It starts with a question 90 per cent of the public answered correctly, and works up to the final round, where just one per cent of the polled group got it right.  

The show, which averaged 4.5million viewers last series, regularly sparks squabbles in living rooms across the nation - and presenter Lee couldn’t be happier about that. 

He says: “Once again I am delighted to cause household arguments, as kids mock their parents for being not as bright as them.
