A typical Hound spotted earlier

You Ain't Nothing But A Hound, dog.

Let's cut straight to it, jeopardy round and we had eight answers complete.

We weren't sure of all of those frankly, probably Edward dropped/kicked out of the marines and the largest land predator, by weight, well those polar bears are pretty big and fairly sure Lee Van Cleef was the bad and not the ugly.

But the Nobel Prize that Alex Fleming won? Logically medicine but it had a whiff of bear trap. And the Merchant Navy? Again a red ensign was logical but by no means sure.

How had we got here? Well, we didn't know the first winner of BGT. We tried


But other than Diversity it was the only one we knew?

So chances were with only Graham and myself against the assembled might of the other teams we were trailing. It felt like trading one long shot for a slightly better one. But heck, who wants to die wondering so we went all-in.

We'd performed ok in the rest of the quiz. A fella took a hostage onn an Air China flight with a pen, not a chopstick and someone was billed £930 by Asda for a banana. With a third round of science and nature very much in our ball park, so far so good. The connection being "golf" allowed this lady in on things as well.

Somehow this fella made it in as well.


But sandwiched between Nitrous Oxide and goraphobia, that was probably the link-up round. And link-up they did!

So nothing ventured, nothing gained. Ten jeopardy answers submitted. King Kong Balls - 2 remarked there didn't seem to be much in the music round after around 1981. No there wasn't, why might that be?

Its about 700 miles less to the Falklands than we thought, maybe puts in in range for a nice holiday destination? And that wasn't close enough.

So, one by one, the jeopardy answers were ticked off, we'd aced it! And that, was all she wrote.
