    I'm alright at the catchphrase thats on the tele, this thread is like eggheads do catchphrase :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,892 ✭✭✭✭Spook_ie


    Did I count right 32 lines of Tyler x 6 on a line?

    No idea what it means but there must be a number involved somewhere, right?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,429 ✭✭✭Sheridan81


    No number involved. The catchphrase is five words. Working it out involves a famous person.

    Good guess but no. The number(s) are important in a way too.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,892 ✭✭✭✭Spook_ie


    Taking a wild guess, with the phone held sideways you get rows of Tyler's.

    Maybe Rose Tyler from Doctor Who with last appearance in

    "The Day of the Doctor"


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,429 ✭✭✭Sheridan81


    That is a wild guess.:D

    It's probably quite hard so another clue: the famous person that helps solve the riddle is long dead.

    Oh and he was/is an American.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,892 ✭✭✭✭Spook_ie


    President Tyler?


  • Posts: 7,967 ✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    This kinda thing is way too difficult for me!! My level is more like...
    Picture of a dog . Picture of a bag.
    Doggy Bag!!! Ding ding ding! :D

    That Tyler thing is more like a riddle than a 'say what you see' catchphrase!


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 10,462 Mod ✭✭✭✭Axwell


    Something to do with John Tyler, 10th US President


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,429 ✭✭✭Sheridan81


    No. This guy was regarded as an asshole by a lot of people. It's a bit hard alright but there were a few easy ones recently and I wasn't 'aving that.:cool:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,429 ✭✭✭Sheridan81


    The first word in the phrase is 'A'.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,892 ✭✭✭✭Spook_ie


    I have nothing new to add to this one, head scratching!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,429 ✭✭✭Sheridan81


    Another word in the catchphrase is 'Of'.

    This famous person I'm talking about---

    died in the sixties.
    starred in a silent movie but wasn't a movie star.
    was mentioned in a poem by a well-known poet.
    had his name used as the title of a song by a famous rock band.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,539 ✭✭✭auspicious


    I've no idea.

    So much information and I'm still utterly clueless!

    I think the clue might be Ty Cobb, but still no closer to solving it.

    Yeah, well done. Once you've figured that out it shouldn't be too hard.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,669 ✭✭✭tscul32


    "Shouldn't be too hard"?? hmm.. debatable

    But Ty was short for Tyrus not Tyler?


  • Posts: 7,967 ✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    Ty Cobb?? I had to Google him! Is that someone Irish people would know? And how would anyone have guessed that without all the additional clues?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,892 ✭✭✭✭Spook_ie


    Googled loads on Tryus Cobb and nothing like a phrase hitting me.
