Tenable (2016– )
8/10
"Well, it saddens me to say you are ABSOLUTELY terrible at Tenable"
29 November 2023
Well, what can I say? Tenable has to be one of my absolute personal favourite TV game shows at the moment. I really enjoy the format (even though some of the top 10s could admittedly be a bit tricky or fiendishly difficult at times) and you just cannot help but have a really fun time whilst you're watching it.

Whilst being a bit of an odd choice for a gameshow host at first glance, Warwick Davis makes for a fantastically fun and engaging host (even despite the occasional dad joke which often made me nervously go "Okay?" as well as the occasional vain reference at times to his work as the titular character in Willow, Professor Flitwick and Griphook the Goblin in Harry Potter and of course Wicket the Ewok from Star Wars), plus I just cannot help but love the way he says the catchphrase "Well, it saddens me to say you are terrible at Tenable" (speaking of which, I have developed a fun habit of adding and emphasising the word "absolutely" to make said catchphrase sound slightly better in my mind).

However, I wouldn't quite give the same amount of praise to temporary host Sally Lindsay (aka Shelley Unwin from Coronation Street and the voice of Piella Bakewell in Wallace and Gromit: A Matter of Loaf and Death) . Not to say that she was a bad substitute host per se, it's just that she sorely lacks the special magic, charm and humour that Warwick brings to the show in flying colours.

In conclusion, Tenable is such a fun and enjoyable little gameshow and I would definitely recommend it to anyone in need of a televisual exercise of their little grey cells.

My overall rating for Tenable: 8/10.
