Catchphrase works better now with celebs because the old version was tired and woeful contestants can be cast and entertainment made out of their ineptitude whereas you couldn't be seen to do that with members of the public. Similarly, Romesh Ranganathan would be in for a lot of stick if The Weakest Link was played by civilians but gets a pass with celebs as it's "just showbiz". It's not right but there we are.
