A typical Hound spotted earlier

Friday 30 November 2018

Who is she? Hound.

Just me and D2 this week. Touch and go whether or not there would be a quiz for a while. 4th team only arrived circa 8.30.

We made a poor fist of these pictures, all actresses.


To be fair, Daren suggested that the first one was Viven Leigh but I wasn’t having it. Halle Berry still doesn’t look like Halle Berry to me.

Current Affairs a bit better, D2 knew about a Dutch King piloting a charter flight and that Leigh-on-Sea is the happiest place in England. Cue joke about my in-laws who live there.

Geography in song lyrics next. Saw you last night in Glasgow, Standing on a corner in Winslow Arizona, Caught between the moon and New York City, that sort of thing. A pattern was developing here with D2 getting more right than me. Frankly baffling Tom Petty lyric included, where the hell is Reseda anyway? Not an easy round.

Year was 1974. This woman was famously kidnapped...


Patty Hearst, an heiress to something or other. We should have got it from Bagpuss to be fair, but went 1972. 

Managed the ten pointers with Harry Redknapp being the last Englishman to manage an FA Cup winning team, answered correctly by guess who? D2 again.

2 errors in the chain letters round. This lot are called the Na’vi..


... and Mansell not Piquet won the F1 title in 1992.

Unfortunately 2 errors, in the Jeopardy round as well, ending our chances of first place. 

We mixed this fellas boxing record up with that of Henry Cooper...



Brian London. Also confused gelatin and pectin.

King Kong Balls first again, well ahead of us.

Big shout for the teachers, ‘Consistently Last’ dubbed ‘Optimistically First’ for the day, managed 3rd place ahead of LATT.

G-Force.

  1. Great stuff. Sounds like a few tough questions in there. Let's hope the numbers stay up as sounds like the quiz is teetering.
