Round Six: The Lost Round

Question One: Name a female hero from the Avengers movies
Unsurprisingly, only one person went for the biggest name in Black Widow. But unfortunately, we also have an incorrect answer...



Question Two: Name a film nominated for 'Best Picture' at this year's Academy Awards, but didn't win.
7 possible answers. Thank you Smithy for changing your answer here and making sure I get zero points :)



Question Three: Name a film starring Arnold Schwarzenegger
A pretty hefty list to choose from and still, some slipped up. They'll be back, though.



Question Four: Name a Game of Thrones character who was still alive at the end of the finale.
It's always disheartening when the first set of answers you read uses the same answer as you, especially when your first thought was "Hot Pie" which would've been a pointless answer. So thanks a LOT, Ammi. But at least we didn't go the most damn obvious route possible and score 6 points.

Spoilers, obviously.



Question Five: Name a TV show where time travel is a key premise
There is nothing more boring than having to read up on sci-fi TV shows you will never watch.



Question Six: Name one of the main characters in Friends
I was doing perfectly until the very last set of answers trickled in. This is quite a damaging round to those who chose the literal worst character of the bunch.



Question Seven: Name an Eastern European country
I was umming and ahhing about Azerbaijan being a valid answer since some would argue it's in Asia but I've decided to be nice here. Also a little issue with Smithy's wording.



Question Eight: Name an island off the UK mainland, owned by the UK
WHY WOULD YOU GO OBVIOUS, HERE? WE OWN ABOUT 50,000 OF THE BUGGERS.



Question Nine: Name a range of mountains
Again, thousands of potential answers here!



Question Ten: Name a current British boxer
Whilst it was smart to think differently and opt for a female answer here, perhaps the most famous example of a female boxer wasn't as smart.



Question Eleven: Name someone who has ever played for Liverpool's first (male or female) team.
Pretty weird answer to have duplicated here, but there was one!



Question Twelve: Name a male WWE wrestler
The whole "history of the WWE" and "do I accept someone when they participated when it was called WWF?" dilemma was quite boring so in the end I just said "yes".



Question Thirteen: Name a Big Brother housemate who was evicted by their housemates rather than the public
All of you went for BBUK housemates until I pointed out the loophole in the wording of the question :joker: cue a flurry of amendments from most of you yesterday.



Question Fourteen: Lady GaGa, Beyonce, Madonna or Rihanna?
I guess the reasoning behind this being the most popular answer was that she's by far the least contemporary of the bunch, but I'll shut up now before Nancy assassinates me.



Question Fifteen: Name a current British band
Just the one (very good) shared answer, here.



Question Sixteen: Name a song released by the Cranberries
Five or six different albums to select from here, but once again, "let's pick their biggest hit lol" seemed to spring up in the minds of two delinquents! One more obscure answer was also shared.



Question Seventeen: Name a sea
Plenty of potential wrong answers here that were carefully amended. Still a few random shared answers, though.



Question Eighteen: Who is going to win Top Answers?
Perhaps, with hindsight, "who is going to win Pointless?" would've been a more interesting question with just the 19/20 potential answers. And naming yourselves seemed to backfire on a few of you :fan:
