Ohh wow :amazed: I really thought I had blown it in the literature round and then there seeing some of my answers flopping like Lost in Translation, Vida la Vida and Ivory Coast. I actually had kettle down originally as well for things you put on after waking up but changed to clothes just before I sent my answers
Unlucky Daniel, thought you were the other one in the top two and do feel like I've robbed you there a bit lol Thanks for running Shaun, enjoyed the diversity of the rounds a lot :clap2: |
Oh I put a couple of the top answers to begin with then changed my mind :fist:
Well done MTVN and thanks for running this Shaun! |
Well done Matt :love: and Daniel and Marc!
Happy with my placing, that last round bumped me up the board a bit :hehe: You did a marvelous job Shaun :lovedup: |
Got quite lucky on that BB housemates name one as well, did control F on the list of housemates and first one I tried was John and then James when that didn't work out, find it really surprising that there's never been a James in there
Half wondered if people would be put off answering that by John James though |
Well done Matt!
|
And thanks as always for hosting Shaun!

21 voters this time, meaning an incorrect answer is worth a whopping 42 points :omgno:
Pointless 1) Pick a name that's never been the name of a BBUK Housemate Shaun - Kim (the male Kim) Strictly Jake - Betty Niamh - Sinead Denver - Calix Rob! - Stacey Mitchell - Mitchell Liam- - Brandon Amy Jade - Kelly Cherie - Fiadh MB - Erica MTVN - Keith Calderyon - Olivia Matthew. - Twila Smithy - Raymond Jake - Connor (this was really taking the piss :oh: ) Tony Montana - Matilda AnnieK - Ian Black Dagger - Lucas Cal - Ibrahim Jessica - William Babayaro - Fernando 'Connor' and 'Raymond' were paper-thin correct answers because of Ray from BB4 and Conor from BB13 but I'll allow them, meaning everyone is pointless. 2) Name a single released by Coldplay Shaun - Up in Flames Strictly Jake - Ink Niamh - Shiver Denver - Moving to Mars Rob! - Clocks Mitchell - Princess of China Liam- - Talk Amy Jade - Always in My Head Cherie - A Message MB - Talk MTVN - Square One Calderyon - Atlas Matthew. - Speed of Sound Smithy - Yellow Jake - Daddy Tony Montana - Paradise AnnieK - Christmas Lights Black Dagger - Moses Cal - Strawberry Swing Jessica - O Babayaro - Speed of Sound 2pts each for Talk and Speed of Sound; I guess going for bang in the middle of their discography (with 2005's "X&Y") was not the best strategy! 3) Name a country that was a part of, or parts of it were a part of, the French colonial empire at some point Shaun - St. Lucia Strictly Jake - Brazil Niamh - Chad Denver - Niger Rob! - Dominica Mitchell - Cote D'Ivoire Liam- - Comoros Amy Jade - Canada Cherie - Gabon MB - Cambodia MTVN - India Calderyon - Dominica Matthew. - Benin Smithy - St Kitts & Nevis Jake - Cote D'Ivoire Tony Montana - Madagascar AnnieK - St Kitts & Nevis Black Dagger - Niger Cal - St. Lucia Jessica - Benin Babayaro - Senegal A couple of you did name territories or parts of countries that were indeed a part of the French empire at some point, but forgot to word them as modern day countries... so I amended a few answers and made them what I was looking for. If you aren't pointless here, you score 2pts, since no three people said the same thing. 4) Name someone who has become famous as a YouTuber Shaun - TomSka Strictly Jake - Madilyn Bailey Niamh - Nick Pro Denver - Brennan Donnelly Rob! - Ajey Nagar (CarryMinati) Mitchell - Niki Albon Liam- - Troye Sivan Amy Jade - James A. Janisse (Dead Meat) Cherie - Vexxed IRL MB - Stephanie Soo MTVN - Justin Bieber Calderyon - Tyrone Magnus Matthew. - AmazingPhil Smithy - James Turner Jake - Samuel de Luque (Vegetta777) Tony Montana - Konrad Dantas (KondZilla) AnnieK - DanTDM Black Dagger - Jaackmaate Cal - Eleanor Neale Jessica - Lucas Cruikshank Babayaro - Billy Wingrove The world was really your oyster with this question and it shows. No same answers. 5) Name a country whose flag contains the colour yellow Shaun - Papua New Guinea Strictly Jake - Romania Niamh - Kyrgyzstan Denver - Central African Republic Rob! - Bahamas Mitchell - Colombia Liam- - Gabon Amy Jade - Seychelles Cherie - Kazakhstan MB - Haiti MTVN - Vatican City Calderyon - Argentina Matthew. - Mali Smithy - Jamaica Jake - Belgium Tony Montana - St. Lucia AnnieK - China Black Dagger - Kyrgyzstan Cal - Sweden Jessica - Bolivia Babayaro - Bosnia & Herzegovina An almost perfect round until Lucas came along and RUINED it with Sporcle's favourite country. 6) Name a plant or flower that would be considered a "weed" Shaun - Canada thistle Strictly Jake - Tasmanian ngaio Niamh - Giant hogweed Denver - Miner's lettuce Rob! - Groundsel Mitchell - Chickweed Liam- - Velvetleaf Amy Jade - Birds-foot trefoil Cherie - Wild parsley MB - Sexton's bride MTVN - Himalayan Balsam Calderyon - Poison sumac Matthew. - Dandelion Smithy - Speedwell Jake - Herb robert Tony Montana - Hedge bindweed AnnieK - Oxalis Black Dagger - Hairy bittercress Cal - Stinging nettles Jessica - Bridal creeper Babayaro - Hairy bittercress I am not going to pretend I am an expert in botany so I wasn't too sure if all of these were technically correct, but a quick google certainly seemed to vouch for all of them. Just a few shared answers - if you want to be a snitch and point out that 2 people have said different names for the same thing, feel free, because drama is valuable :love: Hence why I've technically taken the opportunity to imply that Niamh is a giant hogweed. 7) Name a film that was directed by a woman, or women Shaun - The Girl in the Book (2015) Strictly Jake - The Secret Garden (1993) Niamh - As If I'm Not There (2010) Denver - Desires of the Heart (2008) Rob! - Mamma Mia! (2008) Mitchell - Frozen (2013) Liam- - Love and Anarchy (1973) Amy Jade - See No Evil 2 (2014) Cherie - The Asthenic Syndrome (1990) MB - Plush (2013) MTVN - The Hitch-Hiker (1953) Calderyon -Jeanne Dielman, 23, quai du Commerce, 1080 Bruxelles (1975) Matthew. - La Fée aux Choux (1896) - first film directed by a woman Smithy - The Matrix 4 (???) Jake - They (2017) Tony Montana - Near Dark (1987) AnnieK - Something's Gotta Give (2003) Black Dagger - We Need to Talk About Kevin (2011) Cal - K-19: The Widowmaker (2002) Jessica - Michelle Bello Babayaro - The Bling Ring (2013) As Top Answers proved, you kinda misread this question Jess, sorry :( I couldn't really salvage anything from your answer because she's directed four different films. I'm torn about allowing Smithy's answer here because I did say "was directed", not "will be directed" :think: 8) Name something you might put on after waking up Shaun - "Some Kinda Rush" by Booty Luv Strictly Jake - Shaving foam Niamh - A toe ring Denver - Condom :unsure: Rob! - This Morning Mitchell - Good Morning Britain Liam- - The light Amy Jade - Dry shampoo Cherie - Gym gear MB - A niqab MTVN - A happy face Calderyon - Wedding ring Matthew. - TV Smithy - face oil Jake - Work laptop Tony Montana - slippers AnnieK - Glasses Black Dagger - Hand cream Cal - Contact lenses Jessica - A panty liner Babayaro - Milkshake! on Channel 5 The one instance where I was hoping someone would put the same answer as myself. 9) Name a video game series that begins with the letter F Shaun - Fire Emblem Strictly Jake - Flowers Niamh - Full Spectrum Warrior Denver - Football Manager Rob! - FIFA Mitchell - Final Fantasy Liam- - Five Nights at Freddy's Amy Jade - Fear Effect Cherie - Formula 1 / F1 MB - First Kiss Story MTVN - Farming Simulator Calderyon - Front Mission Matthew. - Forza Horizon Smithy - FIFA Street Jake - Frogger Tony Montana - Fable AnnieK - Fallout Black Dagger - Fire Pro Wrestling Cal - Formula 1 / F1 Jessica - Fairly Odd Parents Babayaro - Fat Princess Quite astonished there was only one shared answer here, given the limitations. 10) Name a popular TV news channel Shaun - Kanali 7 (Albania) Strictly Jake - Sky News Niamh - RTE News Now Denver - Africanews Rob! - Euronews Mitchell - Fox News Liam- - CNC World Amy Jade - Newsmax TV Cherie - France 24 MB - E.tv ('News and Sports' in South Africa) MTVN - Press TV Calderyon - TV2 Nyhetskanalen Matthew. - Al Jazeera Smithy - ABC Australia Jake - CNN-News18 Tony Montana - Al Jazeera AnnieK - Euronews Black Dagger - MSNBC Cal - Fox News Jessica - RTP3 Babayaro - Newsmax TV A lot of variety of shared answers here, so again no more damage than 2 points - even if it is to a lot of scores. Scores MTVN - 0 :clap1: Strictly Jake - 0 :clap1: Amy Jade - 2 Calderyon - 2 Cherie - 2 Denver - 2 Jake - 2 Liam- - 2 MB - 2 Niamh - 2 Shaun - 2 Smithy - 2 Tony Montana - 2 AnnieK - 4 Mitchell - 4 Rob! - 4 Babayaro - 6 Black Dagger - 6 Cal - 6 Matthew. - 6 Jessica - 44 |
