Edit: uuuuugh I'm having a crisis, I can't find Daniel's Pointless answers either now could you send those in, too

Daniel told me he wasn’t playing Pointless this round I think.

I'll post the results for Top Answers now and wait for Daniel's answers to do the Pointless results, but I'll post the questions for Round 4 to give people something to do rather than wait

Ohhhh okay that might make more sense, I just thought I had accidentally deleted the PM when I deleted all the ones I'd read and checked. I'll wait for confirmation though in case I'm wrong.

[Daniel.]

Yeah, I was so busy yesterday I only barely had time to do Top Answers so I left Pointless

ahhhh **** that currency one, I had Winston Churchill then I changed it to Darwin then went for bloody Shakespeare BAH That's a biased to the UK members question

[Ammi]

...well done Matt, MB and Jake......

[AnnieK]

Blimey....did far better than I expected too

[Shaun]

Whilst I work out the totals for Pointless, here's Round 4 if you want to jump ahead and get googling

Celebrities

1. Name an ex-husband of Cheryl Tweedy
2. Name a TV show with "Celebrity" in the title other than "Celebrity Big Brother" (or its spinoffs )
3. Name a winner of Strictly Come Dancing
4. Name someone who is famous for being a "WAG" ('Wife and Girlfriend' of a footballer)
5. Name a famous cat
6. Name someone who has presented the UK daytime TV show 'This Morning'
7. Name a celebrity who died in 2016
8. Name a (present or former) cast member of 'Made in Chelsea'
9. Name a gossip magazine that is, or has been, in circulation in the UK
10. Name a celebrity whose first name is John

For the Pointless edition: most of these questions are pretty open and there shouldn't really be a problem; for Made in Chelsea they must have appeared in at least 2 episodes. For question 2 it must be an english title. Otherwise, this is a lot easier than the other rounds, I think!

[Ammi]

...nope, I won’t bother with the googling, I have a winning formula already, I’ll stick with that ...

Turns out I went with the correct option in all of these scenarios (and worried about my dilemmas for nothing), only to rub out Boris Yeltsin's name for the Russian president question and confidently replace it with Joseph Stalin's

[Babayaro.]

Shaun, I said Tang dynasty, did I get a point for that?

[Babayaro.]

or is that even how it works? im confused

[Babayaro.]

ignore me, im being stupid. Obviously I get no points.

[Smithy]

Some people using answers that would be better suited for pointless than top answers in that’s round skskksks

[Niamh.]

You should get one point if you were the only one that said it

[Babayaro.]

...I thought that Guy Fawkes wasn’t executed as such...didn’t he fall as he climbed to be hanged...?...

[Ammi]

...anyways, he was my first thought but that’s why I didn’t say him...

[Ammi]

...I mean, it would have made so much difference if I had.....

I put that as a disclaimer in my answer but I was hoping people would still say it and they did

...I thought it had to actually be a correct answer, though...but I see it doesn’t...it just has to be what most people say but not necessarily correct..?..
