SlytherinAlex Posted March 13, 2007 Share Posted March 13, 2007 Sorry folks... give me a minute to think of a question. Been out all day. Link to comment
SlytherinAlex Posted March 13, 2007 Share Posted March 13, 2007 OK, here's one. Remember - no googling or PAF. Five players have beaten Eric Bristow in the final of the World Darts Championship. Name any three from five. a. Link to comment

Name any three from five. a. Well Eric Bristow is one of the five darts players whos names I know, Andy Fordham is far too recent so I'll guess at the other three: Bobby George Jockey Wilson Phil Taylor Link to comment

Bobby George never won, and Phil Taylor is in the other league, so I'll go with Jockie Wilson, John Lowe, and a possible third is Raymond 'Barney' Barneveld Link to comment

Bristow sponsored Taylor and Taylor repaid him by beating him in one of the finals I'll go with Lowe, Taylor and as I can't think of a 3rd I'll also go with Barneveld? Link to comment
+rutson Posted March 13, 2007 Share Posted March 13, 2007 (edited) Didn't a qualifier called Dellar beat him in a final in the early eighties? (Keith???) IIRC Eric threw better arrows but t'other bloke got a run of good fortune at the end. Edit: Along with Lowe and Taylor? Edited March 13, 2007 by rutson Link to comment

There used to only be the one championship. But you don't have three correct. Link to comment
+ScouseMouse Posted March 13, 2007 Share Posted March 13, 2007 I'll go with John Lowe, Phil Taylor and Bob Anderson Link to comment
+kennamatic Posted March 13, 2007 Share Posted March 13, 2007 Oh dear, I'm old enough that I really ought to remember this. I'll try Lowe, Dellar and Taylor. If that's wrong I have another guess up my sleeve. Link to comment
+ScouseMouse Posted March 13, 2007 Share Posted March 13, 2007 (edited) If my first guess was totally wrong lets try Keith Dellar, Phil Taylor and David Priestley Edited March 13, 2007 by ScouseMouse Link to comment

Rutson got cheated out of the Darts answer, SP is waiting for a ding for Barbie (& I know he's right 'cos I googled it), but we now seem to be on ScouseMouse's question (where did that come from). I think we all need to have calm down and have a nice mug of cocoa Link to comment

What position was held by the first Englishman to touch the ball in the 1966 World Cup final As this is the only "live" question at the moment I'll have a guess Was it our Goal Keeper? (or is it a trick question and it was a ball boy or someone in the crowd? ) Link to comment

+kennamatic Posted March 14, 2007 Share Posted March 14, 2007 Easy, Barbie! Well, if my question was in the running Paul has a DING! and possibly a collection of Barbie dolls which is why he knows the answer! Our ex-prime minister was Margaret Hilda Roberts. I went by the fact that posts made it look as though I had got the answer first but I am but a poor broken down robot so I may well be mistaken. Link to comment

I haven't got another question set yet so I'll hand over to Mr Rutson or Mr Simply Paul to let one of them post after they got "missed" yesterday If neither of them has posted within the next hour or two, I'll set another one. Link to comment
+Simply Paul Posted March 15, 2007 Share Posted March 15, 2007 Technically I believe it should be Rutson, but as I'm here and he isn't... An easy one: Name three feature films Benny Hill appeared in, and the roles he played in them. Link to comment

+2202 Posted March 15, 2007 Share Posted March 15, 2007 Not a trick question but give Nediam a lollipop, yes it was a ballboy But in the final we kicked off first so it would have been Hurst to Peters or Hurst to Hunt, unless you are refering to the first game in the finals competition when we drew 0-0 against Uraguay and then I have not a clue.

+Simply Paul Posted March 15, 2007 Share Posted March 15, 2007 The official adjudicator (me) gives Marty the Ding for remembering that Benny was in the 1965 'classic' Those Magnificent Men in their Flying Machines. Well done to the two other contributors for remembering those easier to recall roles, and a Family Fortunes 'Ppht-pphf' to dodgydaved for being late to the party.
