I like Tipping Point particularly because I like those 2p machines. The prize structure is a bit crap though. I don't like the idea of game shows where you score all these points, which are then converted into cash, and come away with nothing if you lose. Something has been lost over the years. For example, if you came last on Bullseye, you still went away with a tankard, a set of darts, perhaps £100 in cash, and a chance to gamble for the star prize if the other two teams turned the opportunity down.
