At a recent quiz, one of the questions was the opening line of Bon Jovi’s unmatched classic, Livin’ On A Prayer.
Cue every team arguing in hushed tones about whether it was Tommy or Johnny who worked on the docks.
Or was it the farm he worked on?
Anyway, the room erupted in righteous exasperation and confusion when it turned out the opening line, BEFORE THE FIRST VERSE, is “Once upon a time, not so long ago….”
(Go look it up if you don’t believe me. We certainly did).
But…. SERIOUSLY?? Isn’t that like saying the first line of A Little Help From My Friends is “Billy Shears” or the first line of Need You Tonight (by INXS) is “Come over here…”??
Grr.
As you were.
That was a very clever trick question. Kudos to the quizmaster/mistress!
I would be prepared to bestow kudos if I thought it was a deliberate attempt at a trick question, but I don’t think it was. The quiz mistress seemed genuinely baffled when people complained, and I got the feeling she’d just google it and didn’t even really know the song.
Sigh. Pub quizzes bring out the worst in people.
Some other contentious questions:
– Largest country in Europe?
– Longest river in the world?
And “Once Upon a time” isn’t the opening vocal line though is it?
The “Woah woah woah” through the vocoder is
Good luck explaining that to an unsympathetic quiz master…
That is exactly what I thought Dave – fucking pub quiz amateurs…
I don’t know the song, so just listened for the very first time and I say DFB is absolutely spot on.
I heard Woah, woah woah and thought, that is the opening lyric (sic).
I would describe the Woah, Woah, whoaing as backing vocals.
Sorry Arthur, are you implying that Rasputin’s incursions into Crimea and Ukraine are the result of a grievance over some quizbot’s refusal to accept that Russia is the largest country in Europe?
It was a shame how he carried on…..
Incursions? Well I’ve heard some euphemisms……
“The cassock he danced was really wunderbar”
Lawdy mama!
Arg. SECOND biggest, SECOND biggest.
Russia is only partially in Europe – do you think Putin will through his dummy out the pram if we separate the European part from the Asian part?
Time to send in the little green men? I am going there next month, don’t mind acting as some forward expeditionary force for a fee.
Ambiguity is an invitation to trouble: what does “in Europe” mean? Does the part of Russia in Europe count as a country? (Generally, you get more fights over the smallest – that’s not a country it’s a principality etc). My criterion is I’d rather carpet all of Germany, Spain, Ukraine, France and The U.K. than the part of Russia in the political map of Europe.
These and other issues would have been discussed, had we been allowed more time to discuss the question.
We had a right set to with a quizzo once who insisted that Harry Enfield played a character called Mr Cholmondley Warner in his TV series.
NO! Enfield played Mr Grayson, Mr C-W was played by a different moustachioed fella
Oooh that’s a good one.
“Who was Mr Cholmondley-Warner?”
Jon Glover
For an extra point, spell Cholmondley”
(this obviously only world as a spoken question)
Jon Glover used to be on Week Ending. Now he’s in The Archers. Gad, he’s the voice of Britain.
I believe that was the only role that actor played in Harry Enfield’s show. Also, the other “Double Take Brother” was not in any other pieces.
Similarly, I think the first lines of Two Tribes would be the Patrick Allen Protect and Survive voice.
Oh it all depends which mix doesn’t it?
“…the air attack warning sounds like, this is the sound”
“Ladies and gentleman, FGTH, probably the best thing this side of the earth \ Oh yeah, well ‘ard”
“Its very simple, I don’t want to die”
Isn’t the last one from War on the b-side?
(Christ, who’s the pedant now?)
Isn’t it from the 7″ pic disc mix?
Am away from my collection so can’t check
Maybe. I’m wrong either way. What he says (he being Chris Barrie as Reagan) at the beginning of War is:
The logic of war seems to be if the belligerent can fight, he will fight.
That leaders will not surrender until surrender is academic.
How is a national leader to explain the sacrifice of so much for nothing?
Well… relax.
I can explain.
I don’t want to die.
Some of that is Thomas Powers. The rest, rather less impressively, will be Paul Morley I expect.
Yes that’s it. And I think the Carnage mix is the one with Hitler’s speech from the Beer Hall coup trial.
I can’t remember the Carnage mix too korosho, but Hitler is certainly quoted on the Annihilation mix (the definitive mix to my mind).
As is Don McLean.
Yeah it is Annihilation. I blame a 5 hour drive down to Cornwall for my fuzziness.
And yes is probably the best is the bunch
AKA “The one with the grandmother”.
Whither Hibakusha?
(Gesundheit!)
Annihilation
Carnage
Hibakusha
And Blank & Jones remix \ reconstruction from the original studio session multitrack masters
You’ve prolly seen this. I think it’s ace.
My name’s Mark
My name’s Ped
Mine is that last voice you will ever hear
Oh lordy that brought back some memories
Similarly, is the opening line to The Queen is Dead ‘Oh, take me back to dear old Blighty’ or ‘Farewell to this land’s cheerless marshes’.
And of course the first line of Suede’s Introducing the Band is…
WUBWUBWUBWUBWUBWUBWUBWUBWUBWUB
First voice heard on Channel 4?
Most people would swear blind it was Richard Whiteley as he opened the first episode of Countdown.
No – the first voice on Channel 4 was announcer Paul Coia
Opening lines of Daydream Believer?
7A
What number is this Chip?
7A!
OK – I mean, don’t get excited, man. It’s cause I’m short. I know.
C’mon now – call me Bob Numbers, but this one could be howled down on account of John Stewart didn’t write ’em, nor has any other recording had ’em, and…and…
Oh look, shiny things
The pub quiz at the Fawcett Inn* in Portsmouth was an institution for me and friends for a few years at the tail end of the last century. One brilliant music question involved Robbie the landlord playing some singles, announcing that they had been numbers three and two in John Peel’s festive fifty, and inviting us to guess the year and the number one. This was the same Robbie who started a reggae night in the pub. We turned up to the first one to find that he had built a tiny wooden shack in the corner of the bar and was sitting in it playing 7″s one after another, including the versions on the B-sides. He had stuck a sign on the top of the shack that said “selector”. Great times.
* Moose!
Mmm yes. Almost got thrown out of one….”Who was known as the Louisville Lip?”
*Cassius Clay* sez I.
“Nope” sez QM “Muhammad Ali.”
Nope, she wasn’t having it, no way, despite Ali being known as the Louisville Lip BEFORE he was known as Ali.
I did get asked to leave two rounds later….
“What is the most popular drink in the world?”
“Water” sez I.
Nope. Coca Cola apparently
Much moaning and ranting.
*Please leave*
Ha! RTE tv over here in Paddyland had a quiz programme where a contestant was asked who defeated Sonny Liston to become world champ. He replied Ali but had points taken away because the correct answer was Cassius Clay. They were pedantically correct, but I switched off.
You should have seen the aftermath of The Dove’s quiz night when the question upon which the outcome of the whole contest hinged was “Who is generally acknowledged as the father of the blues?”
Spoiler; my team won.
Howard Kendall?
Arf!
Is it anything like the toilet is nearby?
You, also, would have triumphed. And rightly so.
I was competing in a quiz run by the Reader’s Digest, to launch some sort of Not Many People Know That book, and the prize was a rather tasty weekend for 2 for each team member in a French chateau. We were set to win, when the question came up: what was the last battle of the Wars of the Roses? Bosworth Field, obviously. But some know-all in our team insisted it was the Battle of Stoke Field two years later, so we went for that. He was right, but also Catastrophically Wrong in the context of fancy weekends away. So, contra @arthur-cowslip, sometimes quiz answers aren’t pedantic enough.
I ran a quiz at my daughter’s school once. One of the answers I gave to a historical question (can’t remember what it was now) resulted in the headmaster marching on to the stage, grabbing the mike and shouting, ‘Actually, the correct answer is…’ Not happy, I can tell you – I’d done proper research and all, in the library (this was pre-Wikipedia).
My favourite question from a pub quiz
“What drink is made from onion water?”
The question setter was nearly lynched when she gave the answer.
You’ve got me stumped, Hubert.
Do tell.
I’m still puzzling. The best I can do is think of it as a cryptic crossword
Drink = the definition
Onion on water = the cryptic part, so take the letters ‘oni’ and put them ‘on’ a word meaning water to give the name of a drink.
But the only drink I can think of which ends ‘oni id negroni, and I can’t make ‘negr’ mean water.
Don’t think cryptic, think pronunciation.
I’m thinking something to do with ions, but that’s as far as I’ve got.
Is it Mead ?
Drink made from honey and water……
Is it mead? For a moment…
That works if the quizzer completely drops her aitches, in which case lynching would be fully justified and there’s not a jury in the land which would convict.
Well done Chrisf (or Christ as my spell check wishes to make it).
There was much wailing.
Many years ago we had a pub quiz night at the newspaper I worked on. The teams were divided along tribal lines. There were us journalists, who reckoned we could take on anyone on history, literature, the arts, music up until 1990, politics and pretty much everything else. The classified ads team could play their joker on music post-1990, celebrity culture and TV. The senior management team knew fuck all about diddly, so it was a surprise to most of us when at the end of the night they were announced as the winners.
One refreshed young lady from the Classifieds team got up and made an impassioned speech about the inequality of opportunity in modern Britain. Or something; the only unslurred phrase that everyone remembered the next morning was “cheating cocksuckers.” The speech was met with what can only be described as rapturous silence.
Nothing was said the next day , of course, because we were all British. But six months later there was another quiz night, and this time the exec board team gave themselves a new name. The Cheating Cocksuckers.
The Cheating Cocksuckers… do these people surreptitiously replace themselves with a Fleshlight* and then sneak off for a refreshing beverage?
(*I have no idea what this is, and even if I did, I wouldn’t advise anyone to Google it at work. Or anywhere)
I once took part in a quiz in a (pre-theme pub days) London Irish pub, “fundraising” for “charities” back home. My mate and I came up with the oh-so-hilarious team name “The Kneecappers”. Quite a tense evening as I recall. We didn’t go back.
What’s the first line of Bohemian Rhapsody? Stumped a gang of us for a good boozy hour.
That’s a good question. Slightly obscure, but almost everyone has the capacity to answer if they think about it.
I take it the answer is “Is this the real life, is this just fantasy?” Unless I’m missing some more pedantic answer…
No, that’s exactly it. We found ourselves stuck in a “Mama, just killed a man” vortex from which there was no escape.
Bismillah! It would not let you go!!
Nothing really matters, though.
All this is giving me an idea. Usually in quizzes you’re ostracised for pedantically challenging the quizmaster.
What about a pedants’ quiz? Where you’re actually rewarded and get extra points for coming up with technically correct answers that the quizmaster hasn’t thought of?
Or maybe that would be a recipe for disaster…
(Pedant’s Quiz or Pedants’ Quiz???)
You could neatly avoid the problem by calling it a Pedant Quiz.
But yes, recipe for disaster…like the pub quiz in Gavin & Stacey where the answer is always Gary Lineker. (Maybe that’s not the same sort of disaster, on reflection.)
I think, in a post QI klaxon world, that’s a neat idea as long as everyone competing is on board. It is also a work around against cellphone cheating, rewarding advanced thinking over sly google searching. I have a mate that writes questions for quizzes and he hates grief so he sticks to non controversial stuff like “which planet is closest to The Sun?” – just between you and me his quizzes are a bit dry. They’re quick though; a quiz that encourages/ rewards challenges might go on a bit..
” between you and me his quizzes are a bit dry” – dude thinks quizzes are meant to be enjoyable! Ha ha!
You’ll be saying that about music next.
*puts Kluster on*
So….if two or more pedants come up with conflicting alternate answers, who decides who is ‘correct’…and how? Recipe for fisticuffs I reckon….
In pre internet times I hosted a pub quiz and wrote all the questions – one guy got really, really heated when I tried to be clever : “The Beatles celebrated their first number one with what single?”. This was based on a drawing I’d seen of Epstein telling the boys that they were number one with Please Please Me. The Fabs all looked cock a hoop. Although the Guinness Hit Singles book shows PPM as a number 2 hit, I am pretty sure that in those days more than one chart was going around and being number one in either of them was a cause for celebration. It was only later that the Guinness people decided to accept one particular chart.
Yep. No 1 in the NME chart.
Johnny C will be along in a minute to correct me, don’t worry.
Slightly off topic one we had recently was a spot the intro round where the first few bars of “You Can Get it If You Really Want” were played. Title and artist were requested, we went for Desmond Dekker – the answer given was Jimmy Cliff.
Both artists have recorded it (Jimmy Cliff wrote it) but I had a listen to both on youtube later on – it’s not easy to tell the two apart until the singer comes in…
Absolutely no point complaining cos it was impossible, but it just shows how careful you have to be when setting these things.
Brent:
I could fill a thread with arguments I’ve had about pub quizzes – a familiar debate in our team was “the correct answer is x, but the answer they’re looking for is y”.
One that I know will appal Afterworders. At one quiz the question was “What was the venue for the final Beatles concert?” This one got passed to me as the team’s resident muso – I agonised for ages over whether to go for the Apple building live performance, or Candlestick Park as the final ‘proper’ concert, and finally went for the latter. When the quizmaster read out the answers he said it was “Shea Stadium.” Cue endless dissing from my team for the ‘wrong’ answer, though we won anyway…
Ooh I hope you argued that with the quizmaster afterwards….
I’ve been mentally gathering questions for a never-to-be-staged pub quiz for years. Some of my favourites:
1. Who is the main character in a famous work of entertainment featuring Master Bates?
2. Which studio album features both Clapton and Hendrix?
3. What is the only comedy album to have topped the UK album charts?
4. Captain Mainwearing’s first name?
5. Question 4’s connection to Lou Reed?
6. Which classic song starts with 2 bars of God Save the Queen?
Useless asking you lot with your fancy internet connections clearly…
#2 would be the first Stephen Stills album
Spot on JC. And isn’t it glorious!
Yes, it’s rare to hear Jimi guesting, while Eric would play for seemingly anyone who asked him back then.
EC’s tone is great too – that overdriven sound he used lots on the first solo album. Wish that guy could have surfaced a bit more over the years.
That was recorded when Stills was living in England, so had access to both Jimi and Eric.
It was also when he developed a love of cricket, something he still has today, occasionally turning up in the BBC commentary box during test matches.
He really did fall in love with this funny island, didn’t he. And yet didn’t work much with our Graham Nash. Wonder why not.
Unless you’re being really, really clever, I think #1 may be an urban myth.
Let’s assume, for the purposes of this exercise only, that I’m being really, really clever!
Very well played – great pub quiz question!
Why thank you! You can imagine the arguments that question would provoke on every mixed ability table, people swearing blind they saw a Master Bates on CP – as I could have sworn I remembered myself.
Now you’ll be telling that Seaman Staines and Roger the Cabin Boy are urban myths too
I bought a book about children’s TV which had repeated these myths. John Ryan was not happy and a sticky label had had to be stuck in each book covering up the calumny with amendments
From Wiki:
There is a persistent urban legend, repeated by the now defunct UK newspaper the Sunday Correspondent, that ascribes sexually suggestive names – such as Master Bates, Seaman Staines, and Roger (meaning “have sex with”) the Cabin Boy – to Captain Pugwash’s characters, and indicating that the captain’s name was a slang Australian term for oral sex. The origin of this myth is likely due to student rag mags from the 1970s and the character Master Mate, whose name when spoken by Pugwash occasionally sounded something like “Master Bate”. However none of the other characters ever featured in the show. Interestingly, although there was a real character called Willy, which is an inoffensive British slang term for penis, this character is never cited as an example of the double entendres.
John Ryan successfully sued both the Sunday Correspondent and The Guardian newspapers in 1991 for printing this legend as fact.
I’m beginning to suspect my memory of Petty Officer Spunky Cumballs may be unreliable…
Mmm, and I’m increasingly of the opinion that Bosun Ballsac and Admiral Prepuce must have appeared in some other programme entirely. The Onedin Line, perhaps.
The Won-din Line, as it has to be pronounced of course.
Though I may well have been thinking of the Vivid Video parody version, The Onandin Line.
I know I was.
The original name of Womble cook Madame Cholet was Mrs Rugmunch
True dat
I remember it well. The author was that guy who did the album of prank calls that features on that The Orb album. Sorry, I’m not being very specific here, I know.
Victor Lewis Smith?
That’s him. I’m a big VLS fan, though he’s become more pompous and self-satisfied with age.
Yes, that’s the chap. There was a co-author involved too. My favourite was the one where he maintained that Trotsky had faked his own assassination, going on to become a successful entrepreneur in the US. The evidence being that he is hidden in plain site in his new identity – on every KFC logo.
Is 6 “God Save the Queen” by the Sex Pistols? 😉
Ha! Good one. And all the other bars too. No, the proper, starchy, national anthemy one.
If your answer to number one is Captain Pugwash, then I’m afraid it’s incorrect
It isn’t. Which is why it’s such a good question. Well, in my head anyway.
Is #1 to do with Downton Abbey? So Lord Downton, or whatever he was called?
If Bates was about 40 years younger!
Scratch that, it’s Oliver Twist isn’t it?
Quite right. Was reading it last year with eldest. I had to keep a straight face as Master Bates kept appearing and larking about in exactly the same way as he doesn’t in the films.
3. Wasn’t this a Muppets album?
4. George
No, just to put anyone who still cares out of their misery, it was Max Boyce’s We All Had Doctors’ Papers. Not a patch on Live at Treorchy sadly.
4 was indeed George. Who knew?
Max Boyce? I thought you said comedy…
Ha! He was funny once. I promise. Live at Treorchy – where he wins over a small rugby club, most of whom have had to be given free tickets to come in – is genuinely rib tickling.
Who remembers the regional comedian boom of the 70s.
I think Billy Connelly was the first to break big, followed by Jasper Carrott (Brum), Max Boyce (Wales), Mike Harding (Manc), Tony Capstick (Sheffield) and others.
They were all huge for a while.
I think there were even a few west country ones who traded on the country bumpkin theme.
They were nearly all from the folk circuit. Dave Spikey did a great series about this for radio 4 a few years back.
Fred Wedlock was a west country one. Had a hit with Oldest Swinger in Town.
Jethro. Priceless. Wet yourself funny, that bloke.
I preferred his earlier, funnier stuff
The connection to Lou Reed
Is it “My Friend George” from New Sensations?
This might be off the wall, so I’m going to drop my train of thought completely if I’m on the wrong track…. But is the answer to No 6 a Dr John song…..?
5:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8KYj7ItbxzY
Just to put you out of suspenders:
5. Herbie Flowers, the Walk on the Wild Side bass player. Wrote Grandad. Clive Dunn innit.
6. LA Woman
LA Woman? What? Will need to check that…
I thought it was that Arthur Lowe provided the voice for the character Mr Grumpy, who was based on ol’ Lou
🎵I’m waiting for my Mister Man🎵
Wouldn’t it be ‘My Country, ‘Tis of Thee’ on LA Woman, rather than God Save the Queen?
Well I’m guessing that since the notes are exactly the same, the punters at the imaginary UK-based pub in which I’d be hosting this quiz would be more familiar with their sequencing being collectively referred to as God Save the Queen. But I promise not to penalise anyone who is more familiar with the name of the pre-1931 US national anthem.
Hail, Corkmaster
Master of the Cork
He knows what wine goes with fish and pork…
…sorry
And it’s ‘My Country…’that’s at the start of that Dr John song I was thinking of (but still can’t remember the name of)! So I wasn’t far off te mark.
I still can’t hear it on LA Woman though – what on earth are you all talking about? Is there a different single mix or something?
It’s the album version Arthur. At least it is on mine.
I think that brilliant Herbie Flowers fact is the mother of the Bob Holness/Baker Street thing. And yes, Gerry Rafferty has been quiet recently.
You may be right there. You know what they say when an artist goes a bit quiet – is it too much to hope for a Stealer’s Wheel reunion soon?
My pet fantasy pub quiz question is:
A famous poet and author, who first coined the phrase the love that dare not speak its name, was found guilty of libel and sentenced to 6 months in prison, where he wrote his last major poetic work. Who brought the case against him?
Anyone? … Anyone?
Lord Queensberry?
Or should I say the Marquess of Queensberry
Ha! You fell into my trap!
I guessed as much, even as I pressed the button.
I’m going to start from the presumption that the poet in question is NOT the PODGHM, then I’m going to say…. I have no idea.
I suspect you are going to get a few Wilde guesses here, Gary.
I think libel is the key word here. Was is an MP he’d had a heated exchange with in the press? Or some government official like The Lord Chamberlain?
Over to my learned colleagues……
This is my best quiz question ever. I have the entire Afterword stumped and unable to sleep or tend to their loved ones.
The case was brought by the Crown on the behalf of Winston Churchill against Lord Alfred Douglas.
I shall sleep tonight.
Good one Gary
Yes! We have a winner! Kid Dynamite owes you a tenner.
Well Roger-me-rigid *. I never knew that.
* No relation to Roger the Cabin Boy
D’ya mind if I don’t. I’ve just had a big lunch and I think indigestion is kicking in.
EDIT
Ah crap Hubert got there first.
At a quiz last night….there was an intros round. One of them was obviously Orinoco Flow by Enya….there was nearly a lynching when the answer was given as Sail Away, and there was no budging the quizmistress. Everyone just agreed the answer between themselves when marking each other’s papers. We came 2nd out of 19 teams….mucked up the joker on the Sport round.
My sad story occurred in a pub in Melbourne some years ago. A scratch team of various work colleagues and I had successfully monstered the locals and had therefore qualified for a go at the bonus questions, the prize for which jackpotted every week and currently stood at an astonishing 400 Australian Dollars. The questions:
Who recorded “Young Hearts Run Free”. easy peasy (although the quizmaster insisted it was Candi Stanton with an “n”. Nevertheless we successfully got through that.)
What was the name of the Sydney ferry sunk by the Japanese in Sydney Harbour. (The Kuttaball which my mate knew).
Final question for 400 big ones. What is the currency of Switzerland?. Me: “The Franc”. Answer “The Swiss Franc” of course. No cigar. Boo
Do the Swiss call it the Swiss Franc ?
Whenever I hear the words “Swiss Franc” I’m reminded of the Monty Python Money Programme sketch.
I expect you can relate to this JW?
Yes only in the context of my previous profession not possession or adoration.
Oh yes, of course, That’s what I meant.
Whither the good, honest meat raffle?
It’s all butcher’s vouchers nowadays.
Several days later: “There’s no cash equivalent, so I’ll just have to give you the change in chipolatas”
In which movie did José Feliciano and The Squiggle Formerly Known As Prince appear, but Prince didn’t?
It wasn’t Sex Lives of the Potato Men?
Ah, I made it too easy!
At our local pub quiz a few years ago, the MC had a self-acknowledged total blank spot when it came to pop music. She read out the question “what was Michael Jackson’s UK number one single from Thriller?”. She then said “the clue’s in the question, guys!”.
My answer was Billie Jean because I am pretty sure that the other singles sold well but didn’t get to number one. No – apparently the answer was Thriller. When stuff like this happens, at least the other teams also didn’t get a point (so it doesn’t really matter) – but the MC lady was surrounded as if she was a ref in a football match who’d just sent off Messi for looking at her in a funny way. Her policy was “I have to go with the answer on the card…”.
Wow, my thread made it to no 1 in the Most Comments in the Last 7 Days chart! Now I know how Tight Fit, Mungo Jerry and Aneka felt like when they got to the top of the hit parade. ‘Congratulations, Arthur, you’ve just made your first number one’…
It’s parties, drugs and groupies all the way now, I take it? When is the limo picking me up? Should I quit my day job now or should I go in one last time on Monday morning to show off to everyone?
I have a good one – I might have had this in the darkest recesses of a previous quiz once, or I might have made it up. Here we are:
Which artist indirectly uses his own nickname in a number one single (not Eminem)?
That’s a head-scratcher. Jamiroqai’s “Hey Knobhead!” was just an album track as I recall.
It’s a good answer but it’s not right.
it’s Band Aid, of course. Being asked to sing the line “There won’t be snow in Africa this Christmas” causes Sting a little chuckle, as his nickname is “snow” (you have fond memories of it from your childhood, but now you just think of it as a wet blanket of irritation).
No – because Sting is his stage name, not his nickname. There’s probably quite a few that have named themselves. But in the one I’m thinking of he sings his nickname.
Slowhand? Did Eric have a number one?
Don’t think he has. But no it’s not Eric.
Ooh I think I know this. Is it This Ole House – “is getting shaky”?
Ring a ding ding!!!
i.e. yes, that’s the right answer. Well done Captain!
Woo hoo. There I was sitting at my desk and staring at my Shakin’ Stevens mouse- mat when inspiration struck. I should have better things to do with my working day, I know.
Weeeeell, poised over my keyboard having my shoulders massaged by my servobot, my reaction is “Cuh” and I applaud your answer.
However Sting, like Bono and Fish, was a nickname before it was ever a stage name so I imagine if it was midnight and I had six pints of ale inside me and this was the tie breaking question that was going to win me a cash prize I would now be repeatedly pointing my finger in your face..
Which, I think, is where we came in…
Yes indeed @sewer-robot If I was ever to use it in open play, I’d probably need to rephrase the question. For now, I will blush hotly and tell you that this is the answer on the card.
