Intro is a bop no one can change my mind

This quiz show is devilishly difficult. I normally do well in other shows I catch on TV and I laugh at the contestants' humiliating answers when they make fools out of themselves, but nothing of that sort can be found here. This requires a lot of knowledge, but also some clever thinking. I am surprised shows like this are even around. I thought the TV has been leaning towards some brainless entertainment lately. And I rarely know answers to these questions myself, but part of the problem is that I'm not British (and English is not even my first language) and a lot of the questions requires knowledge of British things that is much less common knowledge in other countries. While another lot of questions requires knowledge of some very specific terms or names of species/races in English, which is also something I never had a chance to learn in-depth in English. I wish there was a version of this show in my country to give me a little better chances.

I am usually quite horrible at this. Mostly because I'm not British, and don't really know that many famous people. It was really nice though to be able to connect the terriers and baskets on the wall and their connections, and then figure out the connection of the red words. Surprisingly enough I nearly got all of the greek and roman gods in the vowel connect. I'm glad I knew my mythology, vowel connect especially is always my worse round when I play along as I watch.
