PEEHS - Famous Men Picture Quiz - THE REVEAL

Let's appreciate some home-grown talent now!

9. Fir na hÉireann


Top Row:
Séamus Heaney – Irish poet and Nobel laureate. US President-elect Joe Biden is among his many fans.
Roy Keane – The Mr. Happy of Mayfield, Cork. Footballer, coach and pundit.
Paul Mescal – Normal People actor. Made GAA shorts and skinny neckchains the must-have accessories of 2020.
Martin McGuinness – Former Deputy First Minister of Northern Ireland.

Bottom Row:
Donal Lunny – Folk musician, has been a member of many bands including Planxty.
Marty Morrissey – Legendary GAA man and (inter?)national sex symbol.
Charles Stewart Parnell – 19th Century Statesman. Formerly on the £100 Punt Note, if any of ye are old enough and rich enough to have had one!
Dylan Moran - Comedian and actor, best known for his stand-up and for the sitcom Black Books.

Well done to Collie D who gets a good Ace here with Parnell. Unlucky here for Hello 2D and davetherave, who both had the right idea when it came to guessing Parnell* but landed on the wrong name.

*unless they were looking at someone else, in which case they were horrible guesses!!

I'm going to make a judge's call here and award LadySkunk an Ace; as nobody went for Paul Mescal, I deem her answer to be an acceptable synonym.

Reberetta still holds a seven-point lead over Zaph and Sheirdan81 going into the final round. Will he hold on for victory, or are we set for final sprint from one of the chasing pack?
And will LadySkunk surprise us all with an epic final answer that gets her off the bottom of the table?

Our current leader Reberetta said Malcolm X.

Good answer or bad answer - what do we think?

Before I reveal the full results, well done to HeidiHeidi for getting the sole Ace in the final round:

ACES - 1:

Michel Barnier - HeidiHeidi

Hard luck to ...Diamonds of Frost, who had done very well up until now but perhaps focused too much on just the hair in the last round!

And best regards to LadySkunk who ends the game doing what she does best; being wrong.

INCORRECTS - 9:

Luke Kelly - and in the morning Diamonds of Frost
Stretch Armstrong - LadySkunk

She’s too far ahead to be caught. Give her the crown

I thought Reb was a 'he', though I could be wrong - they're welcome to correct me if they see this!

You are definitely correct on one thing though - Reb's lead was unsurmountable. Not only does Malcolm X score a healthily low 3 points, but Reb's closest challenger Zaph gave the same answer!

Here's out full set of final round scores:

Which means, our International Men's Day PEEHS champion is.....

REBERETTA!







Congratulations also to our silver medallist Zaph and our bronze medallist Sheridan81.

Special shout-out to our reigning champ Green&Red for a very respectable joint-4th place showing, and to Also Starring LeVar Burton for tying with our champ in 4th place.

At the bottom of the table, we thank LadySkunk for her very memorable contributions. Hers is the Wooden Spoon of Shame.

But I think we need a separate category for our best worst serious player - hence congratulations Deleted User, for his is the Wooden Spoon of Triumph!

Big thank you to everyone who participated and who tuned in tonight. Hope ye enjoyed it. Maybe I'll be back next March for International Women's Day Quiz No. 2.

Here's your final table; I've got one more beer left, so off I go to the fridge.
