    Two quiz shows, both occupying the 17:00-18:00 time slots on the tele. Everyone has their favourite, let's settle it once and for all!

    Pointless all the way.

    Will flick over to The Chase if the last question is * and I never watch the first 5 mins but it's normally very enjoyable and it's a great idea for a quiz show.

    Hardly watch either, but pointless annoys me. So The Chase it is.

    I prefer the Chase.

    I do enjoy pointless depending on the topics/rounds they play but the chase is just consistent.

    Very tough. Watch both. Love the two presenters. Pointless had two Celtic-supporting contestants on it, did the huddle when they won etc. brilliant. Bradley Walsh is hilarious. Both great game shows. Right now I'd have to say The Chase, but love both.

    The chase has had a few questions about Celtic on it.

    Pointless by a country mile because the presenter and quiz boy make the show for me. never got in to the chase at all, if truth be told.

    Chase is the only one of the two I'd sit and watch. Pointless just seems - pointless!

    The Chase is class, love it when some * takes a negative amount to get to the final round easier then gets every question right anyway, the other team members faces :smiley-laughing002:
