Bobbie22, you can't put The Chase and Tipping Point in the same category. The Chase has at least some tricky questions; Tipping Point has things like 'How many letters are in the English alphabet?' and they don't get much tougher than that ;)

I think they are given a very limited choice of subjects, possibly even a source from which to study, this why the questions are often bizarre and why the contestants know so many of the answers, just study one book, all the answers will be in there. General knowledge is probably, genuine knowledge questions, even I get some of them right occasionally.
