    Good on him for saying Derry without the irrelevant prefix.

    Inis Beg/Beag is a shoe-in.

    Ah well, It's a shame they didn't win. They deserved a Jackpot for choosing the category we wanted.

    Hangs head - none of mine were Pointless. Can I still come back?

    Said Lisburn to the missus so just shouted boom much to her bemusement.

    Am I the only one who found that harder than expected?

    Let a boom out of me for getting Connemara and Inish Beg though :D


  • Registered Users Posts: 72,531 ✭✭✭✭Welsh Megaman


    Eh...





    No.

    Jez kidding!

    Easier than I expected. I was thinking it was going to be rivers or something.

    I think rivers would have been handier to come up with a pointless answer. Hard enough trying to think of a national park. At least we learn off by rote the rivers of Ireland in primary school :D

    It would be interesting to see if it was one or two Irish people (or quiz nerds) in the sample who were able to list off loads of correct answers in the final.

    If a well known city like Galway only scored 8 (I think) then I would have expected more pointless answers from the National Parks and 'Inish-' categories.

    Or maybe someone in the survey was quick on the Google. We will never know.

    Kilkenny is not even legally a city. ;)

    Was watching but wasn't online earlier. My wife was amused at my excitement when they chose Irish Geography. I had Iniseer and inis boffin but not so good on the national parks and didn't have the pointless capital.

    So what will be the next "Irish Geography"?

    Walking in the door, bemoaning the fact I was missing Pointless and totally oblivious of the earth shattering moment :pac:

    Watched it there and shocked that both Connemara and Glenveagh were pointless. Double boom for me but especially shocked at Connemara. Although with Galway only scoring 10 I can it.

    I'd have though Ballycroy would be -50 if those were pointless
