    We all disagree on the year. One of us is worse than the others.

    EDIT: Oh, it's me :(

    Kath said Tristian and Isolde and Estelle dismissed her! God, I hope it's right.

    EDIT: Oh she's let her go for it.

    This would be a great category to score low points in a regular round, but tough to score a pointless answer.

    Most people wouldn't know anything about opera, but you always get a few die hards (in the survey) who could name most of the correct answers.

    I think they said that Mastersingers one or some variation of it while they were thinking.

    My Dad (who would be my partner if I ever went on Pointless) would have totally got a pointless answer on that last round. I keep thinking we should actually enter instead of talking about it :)

    Here's Richard on The Sarah Millican Television Programme

    (link starts at the Richard interview)

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jVKnyHd8Ius&t=21m40s


    Edit: I just looked at it, it's only a few minutes long but Sarah Millican's shrieking makes it almost unwatchable.

    I thought the capercaille was a chicken!

    If I ever did go on it I'd definitely scrub up on my 2012 Olympics. I didn't really watch it at the time but it comes up with regularity on this show and even after all these times I'd struggle to name anybody except Mo Farrah.

    We debated watching this, as in "Do we love Richard Osman more than we hate Sarah Millican?"

    We hate Sarah Millican more.
