The point is to get people to give wrong answers, so if the obvious answer is right then it would be a bluff. The question was carefully phrased so the correct answer would be "Galileo".
@fivefoflow no no, the bluff would be if Einstein was the correct answer, they said it in a way to make the obvious answer the incorrect one. That's what makes it a bluff, also Einstein's special theory of relativity has come into question as we learn more and more about the universe. It has not been disproved however so I myself wouldn't be too fearful of saying that there may be an addendum to it.
What were the cards for?

Giordano Bruno advanced a theory of relativity prior to Galileo Galilee.

This is a british show? and they say it's a bluff? But Einsteins theory of relativity has been proven to be true.

@fivefoflow They didn't say 'Which was is right' they said 'Who created the first'.

@nejtilsvampe that's why I said there may be an addendum to it, it's unlikely that it is completely untrue but who knows, maybe.
