Paul Sinha struggles to visualise colours

The 53-year-old quizzer - who stars on 'The Chase' - has explained he "can't visualise colours" and finds it tough to answer questions about flags.

He's quoted by the Daily Star newspaper as saying: "It's a real pain in the neck in quizzing, because there are so many flag questions - what colour is this and what colour is that.

"I'm not colour blind in things I see, but when I try to remember it I can't remember what colour things are.

"People say to me all the time, 'You must be impossible to beat in a pub quiz'. But I'm very easy to beat in a pub quiz because I can't answer any of the picture rounds at all."

He also blamed his trouble visualising things for his "terrible performances on Taskmaster".

He added: "When they say, 'What colour are the stripes on the flag of Lithuania?' I literally have no idea at all. I can't remember what the flag of Lithuania looks like.

"I can't visualise very much at all. One of the great excuses for my terrible performances on 'Taskmaster' is that I just can't visualise - I've never been an artistic person.

"I've never even had the slightest iota of pictorial skill at all. Nothing."

Sinha - who tied the knot with husband Oliver Levy back in 2019 - admitted the visualisation problems even go beyond colours as he struggles to recognise certain faces.

he said: "It's interesting that I can't recognise female celebrities. But if it's a bloke that I fancy I can recognise him straight away."
