Purely entertainment for me, though I do like it when the inexperienced players win (like Russell Kane or the much missed Linda Smith on their debuts).

Speaking of Clue, I love how Jack Dee plays a great exaggeration of Nicholas Parsons in Just A Minim, overly congratulating the players on each challenge, the game itself "which is loved not only here around the world, but across the galaxies" and being "indebted to Darth Vader who created the game".

Can I ask:

Do most people listen to JAM as a game show or a comedy (or maybe both)?

When I see posts about mistakes or errors in the show I wonder if others see JAM as a game show.

Personally I am of the ISIHAC perspective where the points, winners and errors don't really matter to me so much. I listen for the laughs and entertainment.

I just wondered how others felt.

Love as always, David
