+mellers Posted September 23, 2012 Posted September 23, 2012 Who famously once stated that he wanted his gravestone to read "I told you I was ill."? (In fact his grave now shows these words, but in gaelic.) Quote

+MartyBartfast Posted September 24, 2012 Posted September 24, 2012 Spike was a one time writing partner of Eric Sykes, so: Who played Eric's sister in Sykes? Quote
+The Patrician Posted September 24, 2012 Posted September 24, 2012 Spike was a one time writing partner of Eric Sykes, so: Who played Eric's sister in Sykes? Hattie Jacques? Quote
+The Patrician Posted September 25, 2012 Posted September 25, 2012 Hattie Jacques? DING Ta! In which radio series did Hattie Jacques have the name Griselda? Quote
+The Patrician Posted September 26, 2012 Posted September 26, 2012 Hattie Jacques? DING Ta! In which radio series did Hattie Jacques have the name Griselda? Clue required? Bill Kerr & Sid James were also in it. Quote
+MartyBartfast Posted September 26, 2012 Posted September 26, 2012 I don't need a clue, but was waiting for someone else to have a go. If it still hasn't gone by the time I get back to East Cheam tonight I'll answer! Quote
+Pharisee Posted September 26, 2012 Posted September 26, 2012 I don't need a clue, but was waiting for someone else to have a go. If it still hasn't gone by the time I get back to East Cheam tonight I'll answer! From the address, I would guess that it would be Tony Hancock's show. Was it "Hancock's Half Hour" or was that just a radio show? Quote
+maxkim Posted September 26, 2012 Posted September 26, 2012 Think you're right... Miss Pugh if memory serves.... MaxKim. Quote

+MartyBartfast Posted September 27, 2012 Posted September 27, 2012 1960's computer programming languages? Quote
+Pharisee Posted September 27, 2012 Posted September 27, 2012 Pain. That would be a DING for you! Quote
+Beach_hut Posted September 27, 2012 Posted September 27, 2012 Thanks :-) Here's a question for you. What is significant about July 4, 1826 in US history, (apart from being the 50th anniversary of independence)? Quote
+MTH Posted September 28, 2012 Posted September 28, 2012 Two former presidents died on the same day Mark Quote
+Beach_hut Posted September 28, 2012 Posted September 28, 2012 Two former presidents died on the same day Mark That's a DING! Well done, thought that'd last a while... Quote
+MTH Posted September 28, 2012 Posted September 28, 2012 I'm sure it was on a TV quiz show the other day, otherwise I wouldn't have a had a clue. I was dreading you asking who they were as I had to look up the answer. Then I was going to be mean and ask who they were but I decided against that (it was John Adams & Thomas Jefferson in case you're wondering). Sticking with history, who was on the British throne at the time? Mark Quote
+Pharisee Posted September 28, 2012 Posted September 28, 2012 Queen Victoria's grandfather... King George III Quote
+MTH Posted September 28, 2012 Posted September 28, 2012 Not George III You get the David Cameron prize for history! Quote
+Beach_hut Posted September 28, 2012 Posted September 28, 2012 (edited) George IV??? Edited September 28, 2012 by Beach_hut Quote
+Beach_hut Posted September 29, 2012 Posted September 29, 2012 I'll get my thinking cap on and set a question in the morning. Quote
+Beach_hut Posted September 30, 2012 Posted September 30, 2012 OK then, which band were originally known as Tony Flow and the Miraculously Majestic Masters of Mayhem? Quote
+Beach_hut Posted September 30, 2012 Posted September 30, 2012 Red Hot Chilli Peppers That's a very speedy ding! Quote
+The Duckers Posted October 3, 2012 Posted October 3, 2012 (edited) Oh, sorry.... Yes being a fan certainly helps On the same theme: Which band were originally known as Teen King and the Emergencies? Edited October 3, 2012 by The Duckers Quote
+mikethemad Posted October 3, 2012 Posted October 3, 2012 Just log in to ask a question but this was a easy question to answer It's echo and the bunny men Mike the mad Quote
+The Duckers Posted October 4, 2012 Posted October 4, 2012 No, it's not Echo and the Bunnymen, so no ding.... Quote

+MTH Posted October 10, 2012 Posted October 10, 2012 The Heineken Cup kicks off this weekend so it's time for a rugby question. In recent years the competition has been dominated by Irish teams. So which was the last English team to win and in what year? Quote
+drdick&vick Posted October 10, 2012 Posted October 10, 2012 2007 and it was the London Wasps, remember it well as I drove up from Devon to watch it at Twickers. Quote
+MTH Posted October 10, 2012 Posted October 10, 2012 It was indeed Wasps in 2007. I was there as well. I was also there in 2003 when Wasps won for the first time. Over to you Mark Quote
+drdick&vick Posted October 12, 2012 Posted October 12, 2012 Thanks for the ding. If somebody is suffering from Hypergargalesthesia, what is that they are extremely sensitive to? Quote
+Pharisee Posted October 12, 2012 Posted October 12, 2012 Thanks for the ding. If somebody is suffering from Hypergargalesthesia, what is that they are extremely sensitive to? Beer? Quote
