    Anne of Cleves and Catherine Howard. No idea of the order beyond the first and last though or which ones were divorced, beheaded, etc

    If you knew about the Korean war that makes up for it my History knowledge is pointless and sketchy at best ;)

    I almost said 2008. Sort of a trick question.
    I did. A little voice kept nagging me to change it to 2009 but I told it to smeg off :(

    As some of you noticed, but many didn't, there was a clue to the movie poster question, the name was actually in the credits if you zoomed in :D

    Don't worry, you weren't the only one.

    Basketball player, wearing a Chicago Bulls shirt...I didn't think it was him but it was literally the only name I could think of.

    3. Name the former sports star.
    A. Scottie Pippen

    ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Never heard of him.

    Can we skip the music round? :o


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,835 ✭✭✭ari101


    Well I had no hope with the sports star, but at least my guess of a state shares a state line with Tennessee (Alabama), better than last round at least!
