    I accept that dare.
    Always plonkers on it but a good format and good to play along with at home.
    City definetly have the best bands playing at half-time.

    The Lyrics board is a good format, but when the band suddenly strikes up the exact song the contestants randomly choose, it's obvious it's fixed. And when you add in fixed with the compulsory Louis Walsh starlet, it just turns into an LW promo...

    My brother had been asked a question I think it was: In which world war did the Battle of Flanders take place? Whichever answer he gave was deemed wrong and it turned out both answers were right. RTÉ bought off the school with £5000 worth of media equipment for this gaffe.

    My favourite quiz was 15 to 1 for the challenge and Millionaire for the drama and Crystal Maze for the laugh.

    Yeah, Julie's the name - can remember her being tallish but I can't remember her being big TBH. Her sister Anne was big and strong but not fat or anything - just a big Canadian girl but well shaped.

    Hardly recognised her on that programme 'cos she had shorter hair but the accent gave her away. Plastered in awful make up too.

    How I hated that Micro Quizism programme. Always reminds me of boring Sunday nights with Monday not far away.

    Noel...How’s things in good old Ballinasloe? Hope the health is better with you now.You might be right with Julie, maybe I am getting mixed up but there was two birds from Canada living somewhere near Fr Jordan one way about 6’7 tall and the other about the same width.There was another portumna girl called Mary.Maybe that was her.Jaysus I hope they never log onto this site or I won’t be able to set foot in Curleys again.

Its all very vague at the moment, not sure if im up against 150 people or will they all be on the show. guess ill have to wait and see..

    Does any one remember a show called the interceptor?? A scary fella dressed all in black with a long leather jacket who would chase the contestants all over the country. They would wear this kinda back pack, and he had to shoot it (like Quaser ) to get them out.

    Yeah, that used to be on Sky up until recently too. I watched it the odd time, it was ok I suppose.

    How's it going amigo - Beeslow has just got a new (Japanese) factory which is great but it's a dead dump as always, sad to say.
    Had a couple of relapses lately and am battling away to recover.
    I think it's Ann you were thinking of TBH.
    I hate quiz shows to be honest.Pub quizzes can be ok 'cos you can get
    p!ssed while trying to answer the odd question.
    I remember being in one in Dublin where a lot of drink was consumed and I somehow managed to convince my table that Black Monday happened on a Thursday. True story.
