You are all twats stop picking the same pointless answers as me

[Strictly Jake]

Cant believe you chose live 8 too Shaun!

[Denver]

How's Adam is such an iconic moment so not here for the shade

[Denver]

And I bet Marc has never read Essio Trot am I right?

[Denver]

Also how did only 4 people say 9/11 that is the one moment that has always stayed with me from a young age

[Black Dagger]

I'm never playing this stupid game again.

[Niamh.]

Thanks for hosting Shaun

I cried more at Leon Jackson winning than I did with 9/11, thank you very much!

Matthew correctly pointed out that Vanessa Layton-McIntosh getting an orange thrown at her face was the British 9/11?

[Cal.]

[MB.]

There's still one more round to go

[Niamh.]

Eugene the leader of Al-Qaeda?

[Rob!]

Sorry I’m going to be boastful for a second - I didn’t do a second’s research on the Pointless round, it was all from my head. I’m really proud of that

[Tony Montana]

My best round!

Right then, there will indeed be a bonus round and it's going to be a mixed bag of all the previous ten. One question per category!

I was going to introduce "double points" for this one but I don't know, that always feels a bit gimmicky and sometimes doesn't have any impact (unless the current leader has a disaster)

I'm not designing a fancy logo for it because I don't want to, but here are the final questions.

Round 11 - ???

1. Pick a popular name that has never been the name of a BBUK Housemate
2. Name a single released by the band Coldplay
3. Name a country that was a part of the French colonial empire at some point, other than France
4. Name someone who has become famous as a YouTuber
5. Name a country with a flag that contains the colour yellow.
6. Name a type of flower or plant that would be considered a "weed"
7. Name a film that was directed by a woman (or women)
8. Name something you might put on after waking up
9. Name a video game series that begins with the letter F
10. Name a popular news TV channel

For Pointless:

#1 - I'm only ruling out names from BB1-19 of the non-celebrity versions of Big Brother UK, so they can have been the names of housemates from CBB, Hijack or Teen Big Brother. I'm also only considering the name they were referred to as a housemate, so "Bubble" is a name that's been used, for example, and if he had a unique real first name then it would be an acceptable answer.
#2 - Must be a single covered in this list here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coldpl...graphy#Singles
#3 - I will accept parts of modern day countries as valid answers. For example: if a big chunk of Aberdeen was in the French empire at some point, then the United Kingdom would be an allowable answer. You just have to give me their modern-day country name, and they have to be a COUNTRY NIAMH
#4 - Pretty straightforward, they just can't have been well-known before YouTube
#5 - Again, pretty straightforward. Any yellow on the flag = a valid answer (but again, must be a COUNTRY)
#6 - Once again, straightforward enough. Please don't go too specific though
#7 - In the case of a film where there are multiple directors, if one of them is female then it is a valid answer.
#8 - Completely open to interpretation
#9 - Must be a series with at least 2 games already released. A good list would be here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_o...e_franchises#F
#10 - Must be available in either terrestrial or cable TV, or whatever the foreign equivalents are. No fictional networks.
