Yes indeed. For anyone that didn't watch it they were a team of youngsters and were very poor with the first 3 knocked out. This left two. One took on Chris at Sport and won leaving 2 v 4 in the final. They then had what in my view were easy questions and the Eggheads had a stinker of a question, got it wrong and the team won the £75,000. I am not one for conspiracy theories but....

Aye, if you are refering to the Death Penalty question, I agree with you. -- but it was never going to be 8 was it   so it was a coin flip 18 or 38 -- they chose 8 -- bad call from clever people (bet they were told to lose to keep interest and to shaft the poker crew  )

Good point.  I must admit I thought 8 was too low and went for 18. i think it was one of those questions where given the answerrs 8, 18 and 38 that it made 38 look too high.

They had no clue and had to be pushed to give an answer and went for 8.

well i could name about 10 that have it and another 10 that doesnt
so that would make 8 impossible and 38 unlikely
