A quiz show host is facing a backlash after viewers said one of his questions was too easy.

Gareth Dunn, host of *Britain’s Biggest Quiz*, asked a contestant to name the colour of a red post box. The contestant said “blue”.

“It was literally in the question,” said one viewer online. Another called it “the most painful 30 seconds of television I have ever seen”.

The programme’s makers said the question was “a light-hearted warm-up”. Gareth said: “I just ask them. I do not choose them.”
