    I just remembered Donna Air is practically part of the Royal Family now. Quite funny to think she went from Byker Grove to that :)

    Full colour though. Maybe meaning that some of the strips were still in black and white until 1993?


  • Registered Users Posts: 12,493 ✭✭✭✭siblers


    Ah, it's the San Fran 69'ers

    DOUBLE BOOM!!!

    Sorry guys was watching but having dinner. I killed the final round stone dead. Shocked to see Mata, Silva and Cazorla as pointless answers as they're all prominent players at English clubs. Soldado, Negredo and Navas were my 3, so pointless they didn't even make the board :D And all now at English clubs ironically.

    Poznan and Wroclaw too. Can safely say that final round suited my very specific set of skills...current football and geography :pac:

    I got Oscar & Lucinda for the Booker Films, but other than that I can't say I'd have done any good. [Ralph Fiennes sure was in a lot of films adapted from Booker Books]

    I'd have said Paul Thomas Anderson too for Resident Evil. They'd not have given it though, I reckon. I did learn that I know very little about Geordieland though.

    Yeah, I thought so too at first. Then I realised they said "full colour". I remember that in the 70s - 80s some strips were in colour, but some weren't.

    I see Richard is considering taking Pointless on Tour

    Ok, @XanderArmstrong and I will start looking into a live tour of #Pointless. #lockupyourmothers

    I'd be there in a flash. Maybe they would even come to Dublin!
