=== Oh, time's up! Here's what was behind the money on the TropeBoard! ===
* [[Easier Than Easy]]/[[Harder Than Hard]]: In layman's terms: if the questions are easy, politicians will call it gambling. If the questions are hard, politicians will call it a scam.
* [[Luck -Based Mission]]: It feels like one, but we can legally prove that it's not!
* [[One Episode Wonder]]: ''The Debbie King Show'', aired by ITV Play, was a cross between a phone-in quiz and a news programme. Hosted by QuizMania's Debbie King, they still decided to go on with the show, even though ITV had announced earlier that day that the Play channel would be "suspended" as part of investigations into their use of premium-rate lines. [[Sarcasm Mode|Whoops.]]
* [[Screwed By the Network]]: The 0898-gate scandals caused almost every single phone-in quiz game on-air in the United Kingdom to get affected in some way. Quite a few of them got either put on hiatus or cancelled.
