sometimes I watch if for the car-crash celeb corner. Len Goodman was Good - told good interesting stories and got the kind of words viewers would. Glyes Brandreth too fond of his own voice, as was Stanley Johnson (but I would not mind a half hour show of a chat between Stanley and Suzie as they both love words and Stanley was speaking from his knowledge of some root words as Suzie was showing similar English had other roots in Nordic / Germanic rather than Latin / Greek ones. so it was interesting but did not work in the show itself due to the time pressures).

Its a pity too the Mathematicians are stuck doing basic arithmetic (though we know how tricky that can be - perhaps if the show went to 50mins they could have a Count Von Count moment of their favouite Numbers). I think I might have liked some guest mathematicians in as replacements, Like Matt Parker and James Grimes from numberphile on you tube.
