I love pointless ,but some of the contestants are obviously coming on for self publicity ,I am wondering how they are chosen ,it was so obvious recently with the 2 filmmakers who came on recently and talked incessantly about the film they are making ,it is a bit of an insult to our intelligence , there are plenty of genuine people who would love to have a go on the show ,but just to say , think it's the best game show on TV by miles
