Million pound drop live

    There's a question on million pound drop live just now that is bothering me, It's "which of these toys was first launched longest ago" Is the worst attempt at English ever on national television or am I missing something. Surely "Which of the toys was the first to be launched" makes more sense?

    I'm no grammar Nazi but this is annoying me.

    Yeh similar question last week had me wondering the same. The current question is a bit funny too. Why not "Which of these events occurred first?"
