    As a Hibernophile, I did 'Offaly' well in that head-to-head round!








    I'll see myself out.

    I got Bismarck, only because 'US State Capitals' was a category only a few weeks ago!

    @richardosman: Me and @XanderArmstrong in bed, shooting a trailer for 'The 101 Most Pointless Arguments In The World - Solved'

    Good to see that at least one of them made an effort.

    That was my best show in a long time. As a sports and geography specialist it was heaven. Was shocked that
    Francois Pienaar
    was pointless considering there was both Invictus and rugby clues. I nearly had too many answers for the second round.

    They really didn't like that duck did they? :pac:

    Was kicking myself I didn't spot Leitrim or Roscommon, the promotion question I jumped straight for Barnsley.

    This too shall pass.

    Don't blame them. We were eating dinner when it began and I hadn't noticed I was using my outloud voice when my daughter asked "Mummy, who do you want to drop dead?" :pac:

    I hate those idiots who make up for a total lack of personality with some stupid novelty. Anyone with a wacky schtick is compensating, poorly, for being nothing more than scenery. Remember that guy who had a teddy bear in his pocket to represent his newborn grandaughter who "unfortunately can't be with us". No sh*t, Sherlock, you think they'd let a baby in the studio?

    Has this girl got a duck under her arm?

    Yeah, shes "zany". She had it yesterday.

    This subject I fancy Seychelles might be decent.

    Edit: 3 points.

    I'll miss the duck girl, she was cute.

    Can't remember her name or anything mind. Rock on, duck girl.

    After every show, I always remind myself to look at an up-to-date map of the world and British Prime Ministers!

    And I always forget!

  • Moderators, Arts Moderators Posts: 24,016 Mod ✭✭✭✭TICKLE_ME_ELMO


    Bowhead, Narwhal, Humpback, Minke, Beluga!

    BOOM!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 10,325 ✭✭✭✭Dozen Wicked Words


    Didn't get Bowhead, but pleased I got the others.

    Could only guess at a couple of the Devon ones.


  • Moderators, Arts Moderators Posts: 24,016 Mod ✭✭✭✭TICKLE_ME_ELMO


    I am shocked Tally Ho! isn't the name of a town.


  • Moderators, Arts Moderators Posts: 24,016 Mod ✭✭✭✭TICKLE_ME_ELMO


    Dunno the Dolph Lundgren one?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 10,325 ✭✭✭✭Dozen Wicked Words


    How is The Expendables a martial arts film?

    I suppose they said martial arts stars in films. So I should apologise to Richard and Xander!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 10,325 ✭✭✭✭Dozen Wicked Words


    3 from the cricketers for me.
    Anya Shrubsole, Charlotte Edwards and Holly Colvin


  • Moderators, Arts Moderators Posts: 24,016 Mod ✭✭✭✭TICKLE_ME_ELMO


    I think they mean Christine Ohuruogu.
