'This Saturday night show needs to be axed by the BBC now - it's the worst on TV'

I am a slight TV addict. During my childhood, I became obsessed with watching The X Factor, Ant and Dec's Saturday Night Takeaway, and I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here on Saturday evenings. Weekends wouldn't get more real than that. However, as more and more viewers switch to platforms such as Netflix, Prime Video, and Disney+, the prime-time slots on British TV are more sacred than ever. The big dogs, such as Strictly Come Dancing and Britain's Got Talent, continue to soar decades after their first seasons. Broadcasters have also made the tough decision to axe entertainment hits such as Ninja Warrior UK, Britain Get Singing and The Masked Dancer. But personally, there is one show that simply does not deserve a place on the Saturday night TV schedule.

The Wheel, for me, is a pointless and terrible trainwreck. Hosted by comedian Michael McIntyre, it's a cringe-worthy version of Who Wants to Be a Millionaire, with celebrities trying to pretend they're not totally clueless.

The so-called celebrity experts are often a hindrance to the players, as they are often lacking in even the most basic general knowledge. It could not be dumber, and thus the questions could not be easier. Ugh.

The contestants also talk about strategy. What? Their strategy is always to focus on the topic they're strongest in. This is 100% the wrong way to do it. Allow me to explain.

The chosen contestant should choose the more difficult topic. I know I'm good at showbiz and history categories, and I could immediately go and answer the TV question offered by Stacey Solomon.

However, I would still have to answer questions about English football and Automobiles. Suppose I get that question wrong, and then someone else takes my place on The Wheel, they no longer have to answer a question about showbiz, which would have been a weak area for them.

During most episodes, you might get the chance at another crack at winning some money. So there's that.

For me, one of the worst bits is where you get to see the celebrity contestants dance awkwardly when the wheel is spinning around. That pretty much takes up the whole show, 80% of the time, as well as the awful banter and patter. It's almost an hour-long show with hardly any questions.

But I can see why families enjoy it. Michael's silliness and faffing around, and the upbeat music, don't make it a particularly engaging quiz, and there is no element of competition. It's all style over substance, and it's about time that the BBC sends it to its grave.
