There were about 9 pointless answers including the one I had decided to pick, "Mystery Moor". The contestants had a good try but didn't get any correct answers. It would have a been a great category to get for anyone here!
I saw that show too... I think any of us here would have had 3 pointless answers!

The object of the game is to think of an answer which none of the 100 preselected people thought of - and the score you get is the number of those who did suggest your choice. Therefore the lower the number, the better you have done. Four pairs of contestants try to get to the final, one pair being eliminated at the end of each round.

I agree - I always look on Pete as the class clown (in the nicest possible way!) someone like Fatty or Snubby who is 'completely irrepressible'! :D

I've enjoyed catching up with this thread. :lol: The forums certainly wouldn't be as entertaining without Pete's posts!
