It's almost like playing Mornington Crescent.

YES! I made the final :D

For those who might have watched it, mine was the connection of the four only Whig US Presidents, and neither team got it.

Preen, preen........... Cool

Well done.

A political question.

Who would have thought it? :)

NOTHING is as complicated as Mornington Crescent. I was given the book a few years ago for Christmas and still don't understand it. :(

That Daily Mail news item flies against any common sense. "Some senior BBC figures share concerns over how Samantha is portrayed" What the f**k is going on in that organisation. :S

I like the ad at the top - F&F at Tesco jumping on the band wagon to sell Jeremy Clarkson outfits.

How did they cheat?

They had Grytpype-Thynne's phone number?

Cool Hey! £500 is ......er.....1,000 50p pieces. That's a lot of phone calls.

Well that's the fault of Ms Coren who I feel is so boring and lacking any presence or personality.

Well it isn't her show, Chaps!

The start of a new series tonight and sadly the civil servants got knocked out. They look familiar - maybe they work in the same department as me? Who knows.

Herc - did you get any of your questions through?

Not this time. :( Didn't send so many in - percentages?

Yeah? Well I would do her. So there!

I can't even get my questions on Catchphrase.

Picture this:

Mr Chips in a clothes shop. He picks a giant turd of the rack. he wraps it round his neck like a scarf and admires himself in a mirror.

Answer: If the shit fits, wear it.

Maybe I'll try and adapt it and send it in to Only Connect.

They're not out yet, they get a second attempt to get through to the next round

Ah, yes you're right. I find that the OC way of streaming contestants is convoluted to say the least!

Why this has been seemingly kept hush-hush up to now, I don't know. Nearly 2 months ago!

They don't seem like the types to make public announcements abount their private lives or do a photosheet for OK! magazine. That's the other David & Victoria.

Anyway, congratulations to the Coren-Mitchells.
