Quizeum

I like my antiques and I like historical programmes but this I am struggling with again in this new series as it is simply not interesting enough. It tries but lacks some sort of spark.
I watched the entire first series hoping that it would pick up, but it didn't and was hoping that this second series might have some improvement, but it doesn't and is much the same thing.
A quiz set in a different museum each week with Griff Rhys Jones hosting you would think it could not go wrong. Sadly it does and reminds of that awful science quiz with Brian Cox recently that died a death.

IKWYM. I tried to watch certain episodes of S1, but it didn't really grip me. You're right, there's something missing.

I love it! It's such a delicious array of curios.

But I do kinda know what you mean. They don't really go into much depth about any object.

Yes, can't put my finger on what it lacks. I would be happier if Griff just went to each museum and told us about objects. Forget the silly quiz.
