I suspect I misremember the whole thing. It’s not a programme I’m exactly glued to. Mrs micra has an aversion to Alexander Armstrong so I tend to monitor the show and when the jackpot becomes substantial we watch just the head to head stage, occasionally scrolling back to the start of the programme to establish whether we’ve correctly guessed the often unexpected relationship between the pair of contestants in the Final.
It's the exact opposite in our house. All work has to be finished by 5pm, then it's coffee and biscuits as we sit down to Pointless at 5:15, then over to BBC2 at 6:00 for Richard Osman's House of Games.
Mrs bargepole and I compete for who can score the lowest,, and thereby engage smug mode. 99 times out of 100 we can get better combined scores than the pairs of contestants.

How did he get on?
I bet Comoros was the best answer.
I bet most people in Comoros wouldn't have got it.
Don’t remember it (and I’ve never heard of it) but it could only have been joint best. Dr Congo is indefatigable.
I disagreed with that answer. The question required contestants to name African countries whose usual name in English is 7 or fewer letters.
Surely the correct name is the Democratic Republic of Congo, which is far more than 7 letters. Should have gone to VAR.
Don’t think indefatigable means what I thought it meant!
For once I agree with @bargepole. How can the democratic republic of Congo be fewer than seven letters? Unless the question was seven letters or more?

My brain is confused seeing that new graphic as @drcongo ’s avatar. Bring back the Monkey Christ!
I think I will, it’s too purple which as everyone knows is objectively the worst colour.
I like it, but then I'm a bit of a goth.
