Pedigree Hound

Just G Force and myself this week. In a curious turn of events it looks like both of us will experience the joys of CT5 come September. Long way to go before that though and in the meantime, I was soon giving myself a metaphorical pat on the back for identifying this geezer.

Think it is the only picture of him on the internet so that may have helped. He was born in August, along with the other nine generally more recognisable pictures. Guess that makes him a Leo?

In terms of news, well it's Rodders who's issuing his first album of new material in 14 years and Jose Mourinho who may, or may not be sacked if his team lose on Sunday (this is news?). Oh, and this chap is contesting a speeding charge.

Does he not have people who can do that sort of thing for him?

Round 3 was a fun round, name the film from the year and description. Child's play for a film enthusiast but neither of our knowledges run deep on this subject. Good teamwork though and I think at the end it was only the story of Olympic athlete Louis Zamperini made in 2014 that defeated us.

Good film though, I've watched it quite recently which makes not knowing it unforgivable really. Available on Netflix.

Round 4 has become name the year so it was a case of linking up the shooting of Ronald Reagan, the launch of MTV and DeLorean cars starting to be produced in Belfast. 1981, a great year though possibly not for those reasons. Onto the ten pointers and a clean sweep mainly due to G Force getting the President featured on the two dollar bill.

So we arrived at half time in good shape. Quite a small field in the quiz this week after the last two bumper weeks so "steady as she goes" from now on.

After a bit of a breakdown somewhere between Wasabi and Eardrum, link-ups managed to do what they were supposed to so on to jeopardy.

Now in my experience, when you're aiming to play safe in Jeopardy, you very rarely do finish up going for it. So which London club did this fella join in 2005?

An obvious red herring there and I threw another one in with Barnet. Chelsea got a mention as well. Swerving it was the sensible thing to do, as we also did with holes in a palatte and the bull-fighting dance (I actually didn't want to own up to knowing this one). So we had a seven.


Now I think music was actually a clean sweep this week, none of those pesky Murs/Mars conundrums so the Hound parked itself on a very respectable 158. And that was enough! Drinking the winnings while the pub was still open was a challenge we were delighted to accept. To next week. And Davids played for Tottenham; of course.
