    Something that often annoys me regarding Golden balls is that it's often cited as the Modern Prisoner's dilemma, but the fact that someone choosing steal means that the other gets zero pounds no matter what they do.
    The original dilemma discusses the fact that no matter what you do the best choice is to betray your partner, should someone pick steal in Golden Balls however, and there's literally nothing you can do.

    • @maxdecimus13

    I hope they did something for the lady who lost her antique pots. Obviously you can't really replace antiques or the time spent gathering them. But why would you rely on such a design to hold something that heavy & valuable. In prioritizing aesthetics, they ruined everything. a freestanding display would have been better. I don't know the backstory because I don't live in the UK, but I know for myself, I use a bookcase to display my valuables.

    "Kings of Comedy" was little known, but I'd love to see it rebooted.
    They had half a dozen old school stand ups, including Mick Miller and Stan Boardman, and six up and coming new comedians.
    Had them live in a house together, and each night, do a set according to a set of different rules.
    Was genuinely interesting if you had any interest in comedy, and turns out the generations had more in common than divided them.

      I think they actually did a version of Murder In Small Town X too. The winner was always picked for elimination and I think he was always stuck with whichever destination was left over by the person who made the choice. The US version had someone like that (Kristin, who appeared on The Apprentice later), but she didn't dodge death nearly as many times.

The only critisim I can give is Jasper Carrot was a terrible host, it should have been Bradley Walsh presenting.
