I wonder if they have accommodated his lack of vision by adjusting the games somehow or only playing rounds that don't require sight, assuming there are enough rounds that fit that criteria.He popped up as a guest on BBC Breakfast a few weeks ago during which they covered this upcoming appearance, with some clips played from the tweaked Answer Smash round at the time. Sadly they don't keep the Breakfast episodes online long enough to link to, but essentially he said all the rounds which relied on visuals have been adjusted to use audio instead and was quite praising of the work of the production team. In the case of Answer Smash in particular they do this by now joining the question with the title of a played out song rather than joining the question with a picture.
Answer Smash is the round that will definitely be different. I wonder how it will be done.
It will be interesting, especially given the news about University Challenge this afternoon.
