How disappointing this was. Virtually no skill at all involved. Almost every "game" was simply luck or chance. From the second programme where contestants had to prick out shapes in honeycomb with a needle the skill needed to progress went out of the window. Surely the producers could have come up with games where a little bit of competitor input determined who progressed. Might as well have tossed a coin to whittle down 456 contestants to a single winner. The series started well with so much promise but went downhill rapidly. Another point I take issue with was the fact that it was filmed in the UK but 95% of contestants seem to be Americans. Surely a wider spread of nationalities could have been picked to take part.
