House of Games fans rip into 'woeful' celebrity panel after string of 'horrific' blunders | The Sun
FANS of the game show House of Games have unleashed their anger towards this week's celebrity panel following a series of shock mistakes.
The BBC Two quizzing game airs weeknights and is fronted by former Pointless co-host Richard Osman.
This week's celebrity contenders consisted of GBBO star John Whaite, actress Laila Rouass, comedian Sarah Keyworth and actor Kevin Eldon.
However this week's players failed to impress the viewers with their general knowledge and they were called out for a series of blunders.
In particular, fans of the show labelled their basic geographical skills as 'woeful' and felt bitterly underwhelmed by their efforts.
During a round titled, 'Where is Kazakhstan?', the celebs are tasked with pinpointing where they think a location is on a map based on the question they are asked.

But it seemed the round fell flat for the celebs hoping to be crowned champion and win one of the novelty prizes up for grabs.
Furious fans were quick to slam their uninspiring performances online.
One disgruntled viewer wrote: "People’s lack of geographical knowledge never ceases to disturb me. Like who cares where things are in the world? Because, like, that’s forrin innit and it’s got nowt to do with me like #houseofgames."
The location of Greece proved a great difficulty for the hopefuls with Laila struggling the most.

Noticing this, one fan commented: "Do they teach much European geography in English schools – cos watching #houseofgames would seem to suggest not?! Someone tonight decided Greece was located somewhere near Northern Germany……"
Another echoed: "How can you not know where Greece is? The lack of basic geography knowledge continues to astound."
A fellow viewer said: "Wow none of these had a tutor at school who played Geography quizzes with them. Woeful knowledge. #HouseOfGames."
As a fifth moaned: "God their geography is horrific😭 #houseofgames."
At the end of the episode it was professional baker John who had managed to score the most points and win the episode scoring 12 points, double that of joint second place stars Kevin and Sarah.
