CSH's Mirta Galesic & Henrik Olsson show that "Wisdom of the Crowd" questions predict elections better than asking about personal voting intentions.

And on prime time Saturday BBC ONE, one of our stats was a question on the new quiz show, Wisdom of the Crowd hosted by John Bishop. This is our second appearance in TV quiz shows after another stat was used on House of Games earlier in the year.

Doesn't quite work, and while it's interesting to explain why it doesn't work, the show moves too quickly from "interesting" to "predictable" to "really annoying". Once you see some things, it's impossible to unsee them. https://www.ukgameshows.com/ukgs/Weaver's_Week_2026-10-11 #GameShow #WisdomOfTheCrowd #JohnBishop #GameShows #WeaversWeek

neutral · AI labelView post →Giving Wisdom of the Crowd a chance on BBC1. The Intro sequence is dire. The set looks like every other quiz show for the last 15 years.

They ask a question, they then compare the contestants answer to the average of 2,000 people to see who's closest to the real answer.

neutral · AI labelView post →John Bishop hosts, with a big crowd behind him. Basic idea: can a solo player be more accurate than the average of the studio crowd? Asks a guesstimate question (e.g. how many rainy days does Manchester get every year?) See the player’s answer, then roll in the audience to give a distribution. Who’s closer? £10,000 if it’s the player, £2500 knocked off if it’s the crowd. The player can join the crowd if they want and are reasonably close on their third and final Q. Endgame.
