Impossible Series 8 - My Questions from shows 11 to 19 - Rick Edwards, BBC1 - !mpossible

Описание: A year or so ago, I put together a Top 10 of my favourite questions from those I wrote for series 7 Of Impossible or !mpossible, to give it its real title. This was mainly a marketing exercise for me so that quiz producers would come flocking, begging to employ my services. To my great surprise, this video has got over 1800 views. I have now edited together all of my question from series 8, in case that is of interest to quiz fans. These are my questions from shows 11 to 19.

I have also put together my Top 10 from series 8, which can be found here:    • My Top 10 Questions on Impossible Series 8...  

As a freelance, you spend much of your working life trying to generate work, but the best jobs are usually when the phone rings out of the blue. This happened to me in 2018 when Hugh Rycroft, who I had known since we both worked at Talkback, rang me up and asked if I'd be interested in writing questions about sport and music for an app they were doing based round the quiz show Impossible!. I of course said 'yes'. Had I realised that his company Mighty Productions was behind Impossible!, and that it had been running for six series, I might have contacted him first - and a lot earlier.

Hugh subsequently asked me to write for the 7th series and then the 8th, after which - with a change of personnel at the BBC - the show was at first furloughed (the appropriate word, given it was around the time of Covid), and eventually cancelled, despite being the most successful daytime quiz in terms of audience and popularity.
