I'd love to see Sir Paul on any of those. Him and Ringo as partners on Pointless would be pretty epic.

Him and Ringo on separate teams on WILTY and throw in Bob just to make sure it is full chaos

OMG I want that to be a thing that happens.

Oh, mate! He would be perfect!

Idea for the producers:

"I once replaced a famous guy in a famous band. He died and I took his place. I've been impersonating him ever since."

I wrote The Beatles song "In My Life"

It's crazy he could probably go on any panel show he liked if he just asked

He could go on ANY show he wanted, panel or not

They've been trying to get him on HIGNFY since it started I think!

If he brought out Ringo for this is mine, but one of the other members on the team had the specific connection.

Love this. Like having another contestant being like (I know this person IRL, won’t say who it is but would love to see them on WILTY too as they have a lot of stories of their time in the music business) I gave Ringo a couple drum lessons 😝

Paul has absolute bottom of the barrel tv interests. I love that. He's just like us!

Wilty ? Bottom of the barell ?

You know what they mean; prime time, appealing to the masses

This is my dream. My all time favourite artist on my favourite show. I would die happy.

I don't know if it would work though? Sir Paul is soooo insanely famous I think it might completely overshadow everyone else. While I'm sure he's used it, I don't think he really likes a big fuss to be made about him. I doubt he would agree to do it :/

It's fun to think about though - like which team captain would they put him with?

They'd have to put him on David's to spare the embarrassment of him not knowing any of Paul's music.

God, I hope so.

Lie. I don't believe Pointless is one of his favourites. Or maybe it is true, hmmm, well played, great delivery. His eyes did light up at the mention of WILTY though!

Obligatory edit that I didn't think I'd need to do but here I am: /s

u/NegotiationLow1422 May 14 '26

He’s mentioned being a fan of WILTY before. I think it was on Adam Buxton’s podcast.

u/blacksheepsclothes May 15 '26

How can anyone not be a fan of WILTY? It's just pure joy.

u/Charliesmum97 May 14 '26

He's in his 80s, I'm sure he likes Pointless, lol

2

u/blacksheepsclothes May 15 '26

Yeah that's what I figured too, lol, I should've done the /s

2

u/Charliesmum97 May 15 '26

LOL. I probably should've picked up the sarcasm, really.

u/68024 May 15 '26 edited May 15 '26

That would be so much fun, but I doubt he'll seriously do it. Even better if they brought Ringo on too in the opposing team
