Here are the questions and answers from the second “All Stars” edition of ITV quiz show “Tenable”, first shown on Sunday 12 May 2019. Team name: The Junglist Massive, captained by Tony Blackburn. Here are the team members, all of whom appeared in “I’m a Celebrity … Get Me out of Here”, along with the charities they were playing for:
Martin Roberts, the Martin Roberts Foundation: “… trying to raise enough money to give a free copy of a book which encourages children to think outside the box if they’re sad, because it’s called “Sadsville” and to change their world and maybe improve it”.
Christopher Biggins, Lowe Syndrome: “A genetic disease which only affects little boys … a small charity, we need as much money as we can get”.
Joe Pasquale, Dom’s Food Mission: “a very small charity on the south coast and it helps try and feed a lot of homeless people.”
Kim Woodburn, The Dogs Trust.
Tony Blackburn, Macmillan Nurses: “my mum, when she had cancer … they were absolutely wonderful, I think Macmillan Nurses are great”.
It’s listed as S3Ep82 on my multi-channel box. The format here is the same as other pieces about “Tenable” on this Blog: a list of the challenges, a note on how the team fared, and then the answers.
