    I'll give it until this afternoon and then post a few clips. It was very funny (to me, at least). :) It was a Channel 4 series made up by funny sketches, it ran from 1999 to 2003.

    I've googled to see what it is having never heard of Smack the Pony or Miranda Hart. Not a chance I was ever getting close to that.

    easy one for you.

    as many of you know I support Everton in football so can you name the following ?

    1/ the year they were founded?
    2/ the year the first became league champions?
    3/ the all time record goalscorer?
    4/ the location of their first football ground and what is there now?
    and 5/ the name they were originally known as?

    As all I knew about them is that they are a football team, I'll pass. Nothing against Everton, I'm totally ignorant of Soccer and GAA.

    As you don't object to googling....


    Founded 1878
    First time league champions 1891
    All time best scorer - Dixie Dean scored 60 in one year

    Apparently Stanley Park was their first grounds ..now Goodison Pk
    St Domingo?


    What I know about football would fit on a gnat's elbow
