You mean like he did the last round.:smug:

Cant believe me and babayaro both chose D.Boon for the 27 club. I thought that was such a random answer!

Cheltenham music festival.....really????

I actually tried to help you with this round and you still got a wrong answer. Maybe the problem wasn't me

i chose Kurt Cobain for 27 club

one of the very few from that, whose story i am very invested in

still do not believe it was a suicide

Smithy picking Gaga is so on brand Smithy

...I have to say...as rubbish as I’m doing in both quizzes and as challenging as I’m finding it...it’s a great lead up to combine with the pub quiz coming soon...it’s made me realise how ‘starved’ of quizzes we’ve been and getting into that quiz mindset in thoughts...I haven’t even had ‘proper lessons’ at school for so long, either...so it’s all excellent to be doing this ...it’s like ‘coming home’...:laugh:...well, you know what I mean...

...we could have ICB as well, Shaun...just saying...then you could really drive me crazy...again...

I actually didn’t for the #1 single though :skull:

Mess @ me and Shaun choosing the same academy award song

i picked Rain On Me for the #1 song

i just thought based upon past top answers games, i only needed to submit that one

but i have done 2 sets of answers this next round

Well I now know a lot more about Chinese dynasties and obscure dinosaurs

This is merely an educational tool, any fun derived from the experience is unintentional

...:laugh:..you should go into teaching, Shaun...that’s said every day in every classroom, in every city, in every country...etc, etc..

History

1. Name a famous inventor
2. Name someone whose likeness has featured on UK currency since 1900, other than the Queen
3. Name a country that no longer exists under that title (eg. Zaire - I will not accept Zaire as an answer :p)
4. Name a war that has taken place after the end of WW2
5. Name a Russian president other than Vladimir Putin
6. Name a Roman emperor
7. Name a Chinese dynasty
8. Name a famous person who was executed in the United Kingdom
9. Name a dinosaur other than a Tyrannosaurus Rex
10. Name a president of the USA who served for two terms of office (ie. won his election twice)

For the Pointless edition: you can choose Scottish currency for #2 but they must have appeared in general circulation, rather than as a "one-off" promotional thing For #3 the country must have changed name, and does not appear in any present sporting event. For #10, they must have been elected twice but I will allow anyone who did not survive the full second term. For #5 I will allow anyone who was president since 1922.

This round is going to be the death of me

Yes! It’s a music festival held in the UK

****ing evil round this one.

i admit i struggled with questions 2, 3 and 7

I had a bad music round.

I thought Sgt. Pepper would be the most famous Beatles album, for instance.

:amazed: I did horribly in top answers but I slayed Pointless!
