[octophone]

You can argue as much as you like.

Oh cool, I;d been holding back, now I have permission.

 

[BoysForSeles]

Why did I say Pauline when Pat and Dot were available? Though I think the last time I watched it was the Sunday omnibus edition back in 1991 sometime.

 

[Rita]

I was going to go for FAT PAT but thought it would be best to go for a current character.

 

[octophone]

WTF is "Vanessa Gold"?

 

[Alla]

Actually I did a search here and chose someone that looked popular. Clearly I got it wrong.

 

[Rita]

WTF is "Vanessa Gold"?

I just had to google her. Tanya Turner from Footballers Wives apparently.

Madonna?

Has to be Suedey...

 

[Alla]

Didn't think of Picasso at all, I'm doing terrible.

 

[BoysForSeles]

Madonna? Lol.

I toyed with Warhol and Emin but think I went with Picasso.

 

[octophone]

June Brown is 92!

And smokes like the Springfield power plant. Explain that, Science.

It seems a shame that @Mats got the same score as @Dark Carnival for obvious reasons and @Suedey (Van Gogh died in 1890)

 

[jyxz]

First thought was Sonia. She’s not a lesbian any more is she?

 

[Alla]

Van Gogh? Isn't he from the XIX Century?

 

[dmlaw]

Didn't think of Picasso at all, I'm doing terrible.

Is that the second question with a Spanish top answer that you haven't got? Maybe you're better off when the questions are really British.

 

[Alla]

Is that the second question with a Spanish top answer that you haven't got? Maybe you're better off when the questions are really British.

I'm terrible with all of them

 

[Rita]

I hold my hands up. I had to google when Van Gogh died as I was going to put him down as my answer.

SORRY GUYS.

 

[Alla]

I hold my hands up. I had to google when Van Gogh died as I was going to put him down as my answer.

SORRY GUYS.

Still you checked because you had doubts, which is reasonable.

Egypt (Jacques, Pipo, jyxz, dmlaw)

Afghanistan (Suedey, Raining On Me)

 

[VoR]

I thought Princess Grace was a certainty for points. It was Grace Kelly. There was a fuck-awful film, people!

Yes, but did she have a tacky 80s hit?

 

[Rita]

Saudi Arabia didn’t even cross my mind.

 

[Alla]

I only got this one right because Saudi Arabia was also the top answer in a previous question muslim related. That's the only way I score points, how sad.

 

[AGinAg (37)]

At the half way point...

 

[jyxz]

#muslin @Alla

 

[dmlaw]

Yes, but did she have a tacky 80s hit?

She had a 00s hit. It was called Mika.

[AGinAg (37)]

Now question 7 which was basically "name a Beatles track".

 

[Alla]

It could be much worse (it will be).

 

[Rita]

UNLUCKY FOR SOME.

 

[Rita]

Now question 7 which was basically "name a Beatles track".

It was? I put down a Beatles track but had a major argument with myself as I assumed Moopy would not name a Beatles song.

 

[octophone]

I though Moopy didn't dig The Fab Four?

 

[Cerro de Casa]

Oh dear

 

[AGinAg (37)]

[Alla]

I though Moopy didn't dig The Fab Four?

It's the obvious artists when you think of #1 in the 60s, isn't it? I didn't have to do a search for this, I thought the artist was obvious, we'll see if the song too.

 

[Rita]

I had The Supremes - Baby Love until the last minute. Never trust your gut darlings!
