Sitting on a Fortune viewers have A LOT of complaints about ‘confusing and creepy’ Gary Lineker game show
VIEWERS of Gary Lineker’s game show Sitting on a Fortune have been left bewildered by the confusing programme and have lashed out online.
Match of the Day‘s Gary has hosted the show for the last two years but it seems that fans are still struggling to connect.
The former sports star welcomes six contestants each week to see if they have the knowledge to keep them in the front chair and in with a chance of winning bag.
Wrong answers send the players to the ‘back of the queue’ – which is a dangerous place to be.
Sitting in the back seat means you are vulnerable for ejection and therefore no longer in with a chance of winning big.
However, the Sunday night quiz show has left fans disgruntled and they have taken to Twitter to express their disappointment.
Writing online, one simply put: Find the rules quite confusing #sittingonafortune.”
Another penned: “This isn’t even worthy of a weekday daytime quiz slot.”
A third wrote compared the show’s ‘seating’ format to that of controversial and disturbing film The Human Centipiede.
They said: “This looks creepy they all remind sat in that formation of the human centipede.”
Before a fourth added: “Watching #SittingOnAFortune reminds me of playing Musical Chairs as a kid but with much less excitement.”
It is not the first time that the ITV programme has come under fire from fans.
Last month, viewers were left raging it was time to “switch off” after it fell flat with those watching at home.
Gary began hosting the show in 2021.
It has included both regular editions as well as a celebrity Christmas special which was won by actress Nina Wadia.
