The 1% club is returning for a new series and want contestants to apply at the end of this month for filming dates in February.
Think I might give it a go

They mailed me yesterday - I think this is for series 3 and applications will be opening soon (end of October)

They confirmed Series 2 after 3 episodes because it rated so highly.

Good luck!

I didn't hear anything :(

How far did you say you thought you'd get? I think I went 10% or 5% - wonder if I pitched it wrong!

I think I said 5% I also said I'm Danny Dyers uncle as my fun fact.
Don't give up hope as they have to ring more than a hundred people (they asked if I was prepared to be a reserve)

Series 2 has been really good so far it's the best mix of light entertainment and Quizzing.
Also pausing the 1%question (and others) gives you the chance to solve the question and to admire those who did it in time

Tough questions on the zoom call, I cocked up on the 30% question.
Tips for anyone auditioning
Have a pen and paper handy and don't do your zoom in a noisy garden cafe.
Nobody got to the 1%question so fingers crossed they get back to me.
Filming end of October /early November

Did they carry on, or stop when you got it wrong?

I'd imagine they pick the contestants across a range of scores rather than the highest scoring, right?

The 12 people in my group were all from the southeast.
Im guessing with 100 people per show I may have a chance

We was allowed to continue but when I passed on a question the organiser said I couldn't use my life as I got the previous question wrong but all my other answers were included
