You’ve got a winner with this series. It’s fun to see celebrities, whose ability is the same as many players,enjoying themselves. The experts add alot. I would like to see some more average hands discussed as predealt slam hands only come along infrequently. Advice on play as well as bidding is very helpful. Possibly less repetition and filling in from Clive Anderson but please lets have another similar series soon

Missed it the first time round - have just watched the repeat.  Great!  Have been learning bridge for a year and was able to understand some if not all of the bidding.  Can’t wait for the next series.  The only criticism I have is that I would have liked to have been able to see all the hands simultaneously.  Just a thought!  Also, players who keep folding their hands between bids are extremely irritating.
