    One of the general knowledge questions was 'in 2014,which English football club added Tigers to its name in place of AFC?'

    ****s.

    Surely it should've been 'which English club tried to add...?'

    It probably refers to the company name, which changed from Hull City AFC (Tigers) Limited, to Hull City Tigers Limited, thus effectively changing AFC to Tigers.

    Though that was actually in 2013.

    I doubt when sports related questions are posed that the expected answer is the holding company name.

    And he didn't know the answer.

    It was an edition of Celebrity Mastermind, though.

    Which **** of a celebrity didn't know the dubiously labelled correct answer to a wrongly worded and probably incompetently compiled question on a derivative, tedious, odiously pandering quiz show?

    We must hunt them down and dispatch.

    This ref doesn't adhere to Mastermind's "I've started so I'll finish" ethos...

    I watched that Celebrity Mastermind once. It's a tad dumbed down.

    I think I knew every single General Knowledge question from all 4 contestants barring the odd one or two. It's fair to say that the "celebs" didn't, mostly.

    I think I knew two of the "celebs".

    No it didn't
    That effectively changed AFC (Tigers) to Tigers
    And the fact the year was wrong confirms they didn't mean that
    Shoddy...or malicious...you decide
