    I haven't taken to Becky I can safely say


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


    Simon hates Becky. I think she's making her own way home.

    Ugh! Becky is annoying but Simon is a twat.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,305 ✭✭✭✭Mr.Prodston


    If Becky wins I will not be held responsible for my actions :mad:

    Boom!

    2/3 answers pointless- get in!


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


    I'll take unlikable contestants, or I'll take hard questions. I do not like both. Good day to you, Pointless.

    Good one for N. Irish politics, got all 3 parties and Naomi Long, Alliance MP who ousted Peter Robinson.

    Mad Men's Don Draper : What you call love was invented by guys like me, to sell nylons.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,305 ✭✭✭✭Mr.Prodston


    I'm pretty sure most of us would have guessed/suggested the Northern Irish parties, the only redemption for that final round. I need that Lions question soon!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,895 ✭✭✭✭flazio


    Wasn't SDLP a pointless answer yesterday as well?

    This too shall pass.

    I do envy you guys who get to play along and post on here as it broadcasts. I don't get home on time so have to record. Today's didn't record though. It's a new series (10) so UPC didn't record it!! Grrr.

    If it's any consolation, I get to see about half an hour of it.

    Redheads was my only good q today. Couldn't believe only 3 people knew Conan. Rest of the programme, I was very bad.

    This happened to me too, but I thought my (sometimes faulty) upc box was to blame.

    They really shouldn't just start a new series with no notice - I've been caught out by that before.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 35,514 ✭✭✭✭efb


    I only get to see it when I work from home. I saw the 2nd half this eve on my iPhone with tunnelbear (VPN APP)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 35,514 ✭✭✭✭efb


    I can't b arsed to record it don't know why


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 35,514 ✭✭✭✭efb


    I love though putting the guess before the announcement so it's all joy or embarrassing fail.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,987 ✭✭✭✭siblers


    I thought in the final round you picked from 3 categories, was it always 4? Becky was incredibly annoying, would have preffered the jackpot to have rolled over to a more likeable pair.

    I was caught out as well :( And not for the first time either.
    I thought the UPC box went on the blink again, but for once I blamed it in the wrong.

    UPC stands for Useless Piece of Crap. Mine picks and chooses what it wants to record. I've got a few things set to record all the episodes and it does it one week, doesn't bother the next. I deleted a few series off it because I didn't like them and it randomly still records half of them, usually when I'm recording something else and then it s**ts itself and records nothing.

    /rant.

    At the risk of going totally OT, for some reason my upc box turns itself off (and keeps turning off for at least 20 mins) every Tuesday when the Great British Bake Off comes on (daughter's favourite programme). Once in a while it will do it at other times, but never so many times in a row. It's getting spooky.

    Anyway to get back on topic, I've now set it to record Series 10 of pointless. Anyone know how many shows in a series?
