I'll probably edit this post with more names as I receive them rather than do a new post every time
AnnieK, Cherie, Smithy, Denver, Black Dagger, Dogeatdog, Daniel, Ammi, Withano, Liam-, Kate!, LukeB, Babayaro, Amy Jade and Cal have answered today, bring the current total of players to 26

I think in hindsight I could've gone for a gentler introduction to the game, yeah, I just immediately thought "okay, Big Brother is the reason we're all here, let's kick off with that" without thinking about how much recollection it'd require for non-super-fans The questions for other rounds should be easier, at least when it comes to Top Answers. Music is round 2, and I'm not really asking anyone to name a Joanna Newsom album.

Pointless

24 of you elected to take part in Pointless as well, and here's how the scores break down... unique correct answers (i.e "pointless" answers) will be in blue. Incorrect answers will be in red and are each worth 24 points. I'm sorry if I couldn't reply to you in time, but I was quite clear with what the requirements were and it's fine; mistakes are easy to overcome in this game.

Oh, and, small reminder: I did say you could choose housemates from other international seasons for some of these, unless the question specifically asked for BBUK so unfortunately, a fair few shared BBUK answers were submitted.

1. Name a housemate that was evicted before the final in Big Brother 1 (UK)

Shaun - Caroline O'Shea
Niamh - Tom McDermott
Matthew. - Caroline O'Shea
MTVN - Nichola Holt
Rob! - Claire Strutton
Calderyon - Tom McDermott
parmnion - Nichola Holt
Strictly Jake - Andrew Davidson
MB. - Nichola Holt
Black Dagger - Andrew Davidson
Mitchell - Nichola Holt
AnnieK - Claire Strutton
Cherie - Andrew Davidson
Smithy - Sada Wilkington
Denver - "Cairon"
Dogeatdog - Andrew Davidson
Daniel - Andrew Davidson
Ammi - Andrew Davidson
Liam- - Claire Strutton
LukeB - Andrew Davidson
Babayaro - Claire Strutton
Cal - Claire Strutton
Tony Montana - Claire Strutton
Jake - Andrew Davidson


Tom & Caroline score 1pt
Nichola Holt scores 3pts
Claire Strutton scores 5pts
Andrew Davidson scores 7pts

Nobody answered with "Melanie Hill" which would've been the only pointless answer

2. Name a celebrity that "Hijacked" the house in 2007's E4 show "Big Brother: Celebrity HiJack"

Shaun - Gemma Merna
Niamh - Janet Street-Porter
Matthew. - Kate Lawler
MTVN - Peaches Geldof

Rob! - Gemma Merna
Calderyon - Andy McNab
parmnion - Scott Mills
Strictly Jake - Andy McNab
MB. - Gemma Merna
Black Dagger - Fifi Brown
Mitchell - Heidi Range
AnnieK - Brian Sewell
Cherie - Jonathan Jacob
Smithy - Amelle Berrabah
Denver - Roseanne Barr

Dogeatdog - Andy McNab
Daniel - Claire Cooper
Ammi - Brian Sewell
Liam- - Fifi Brown
LukeB - Jennifer Metcalfe
Babayaro - Andy McNab
Cal - Fifi Brown
Tony Montana - Jimmy Carr
Jake - Nicole Appleton


Brian Sewell scores 1pt
Fifi Brown & Gemma Merna score 2pts
Andy McNab scores 3pts

Everyone else manages a correct pointless answer, which is impressive! I could be mean and dismiss "Jonathan Jacob" as incorrect answer because he was a competition-winner and not a "celebrity" but I'm feeling nice here, since he did hijack the house for a day. Other potential pointless answers include James Corden, Dermot O'Leary, Craig David, Denise Van Outen and Ian Wright!

3. Name a female winner of the series

Shaun - Nevila Omeri
Niamh - Isabelle Warburton
Matthew. - Nadia Almada
MTVN - Chloe Wilburn
Rob! - Sophie Reade
Calderyon - Coleen Nolan
parmnion - Katie Price

Strictly Jake - Chloe Wilburn
MB. - Shay Mika Ifrah (BB Israel 7)
Black Dagger - Chloe Wilburn
Mitchell - Isabelle Warburton
AnnieK - Sophie Reade
Cherie - Chloe Wilburn
Smithy - Nadia Almada
Denver - Angelica Freij
Dogeatdog - Josie Gibson

Daniel - Chloe Wilburn
Ammi - Chloe Wilburn
Liam- - Chloe Wilburn
LukeB - Rachel Rice
Babayaro - Pia Filipcic

Cal - Sophie Reade
Tony Montana - Sophie Reade
Jake - Chloe Wilburn


Isabelle & Nadia score 1pt
Sophie Reade scores 3pts
Chloe Wilburn scores 7pts

A big congratulations to Dogeatdog and LukeB here for not only sticking with the BBUK theme, but pulling off a pointless answer. Only a handful drifted abroad, so we're left with a lot of points.

4. Name a housemate that walked from their series

Shaun - Donny Tourette
Niamh - Jonathan Durden
Matthew. - Megan Lowder
MTVN - Laura McAdam
Rob! - Laura McAdam
Calderyon - Leo Sayer
parmnion - Conor McIntyre

Strictly Jake - Mark Henderson
MB. - Liesel Pauwels (BB Belgium 4)
Black Dagger - Jonathan Durden
Mitchell - Shabby Khatchadourian
AnnieK - Sandy Cumming
Cherie - Isaac Stout

Smithy - George Askew
Denver - Donny Tourette
Dogeatdog - George Askew
Daniel - Saffia Corden
Ammi - George Askew
Liam- - Sunita Sharma
LukeB - Maysoon Shaladi
Babayaro - Rima Hadchiti

Cal - Jonathan Durden
Tony Montana - Mark Henderson
Jake - George Askew


Mark, Donny & Laura score 1pt
Jonathan Durden scores 2pts
George Askew scores 3pts

A strong showing for pointless scores here, considering the world was your oyster... but a big number of pointless BBUK names here too!

5. Name a housemate whose first name begins with the letter B (full name please!)

Shaun - Bastien Grimal
Niamh - Billi Bhatti
Matthew. - Bill 'Bunky' Miller
MTVN - Biannca Lake
Rob! - Belinda Harris-Reid
Calderyon - Ben Duncan
parmnion - Bez
Strictly Jake - Benedict Garrett
MB. - Boris Erwin Putra Simbolon (BB Indonesia 1)

Black Dagger - Billi Bhatti
Mitchell - Ben Duncan
AnnieK - Becki Seddiki
Cherie - Biannca Lake
Smithy - Brian Dowling
Denver - Benjamin Ringler

Dogeatdog - Ben Duncan
Daniel - Brooke Berry
Ammi - Becki Seddiki
Liam- - Biannca Lake
LukeB - Becki Seddiki
Babayaro - Bobby Hlad
Cal - Belinda Harris-Reid
Tony Montana - Ben Duncan
Jake - Becki Seddiki


I'm afraid I have to discount "Bez" because his full name is Mark Berry
Billi & Belinda score 1pt
Biannca scores 2pts
Becki & Ben score 3pts

Other pointless BBUK names could've been Brian Belo, Brigitte Nielsen, Ben Adams and Becky Hannon.

6. Name a country where Big Brother also has its own original series, other than the UK and USA

Shaun - Slovakia
Niamh - Italy
Matthew. - Italy
MTVN - Romania
Rob! - Philippines
Calderyon - Sweden
parmnion - Brazil

Strictly Jake - Germany
MB. - Bahrain
Black Dagger - North Macedonia

Mitchell - Croatia
AnnieK - Saudi Arabia
Cherie - Norway
Smithy - Nigeria
Denver - Cyprus
Dogeatdog - Greece

Daniel - Germany
Ammi - Croatia
Liam- - Argentina
LukeB - Croatia
Babayaro - Russia
Cal - South Africa
Tony Montana - Somalia
Jake - Thailand


A lot of pointless answers here! Italy and Germany score 1pt, whilst Croatia scores 2.

7. Name a Celebrity Big Brother (UK) winner

Shaun - Bez
Niamh - Ryan Thomas
Matthew. - Paddy Doherty
MTVN - James Hill
Rob! - Paddy Doherty
Calderyon - Bez
parmnion - Rylan Clark
Strictly Jake - Paddy Doherty
MB. - Courtney Act
Black Dagger - Mark Owen
Mitchell - Scotty T
AnnieK - Chantelle Houghton
Cherie - James Hill
Smithy - Chantelle Houghton
Denver - Mark Owen
Dogeatdog - Mark Owen
Daniel - Paddy Doherty
Ammi - Scotty T
Liam- - Paddy Doherty
LukeB - Bez
Babayaro - Jim Davidson
Cal - Julian Clary
Tony Montana - Jim Davidson
Jake - James Hill


Chantelle, Jim & Scotty T score 1pt
Mark, Bez & James score 2pts
Paddy scores 4pts

A very difficult category to pull off a pointless answer in considering there's only 22 possible answers, so well done to those that did. But a lot of other names unused were Sarah Harding, Charlotte Crosby, Stephen Bear, Jack Dee, Shilpa Shetty, Alex Reid, Ulrika Jonsson and Denise Welsh.

8. Name a celebrity that was rumoured with appearing on CBB (UK) but never appeared on the show

Shaun - Alan Fletcher
Niamh - Jody Latham
Matthew. - Dina Lohan
MTVN - OJ Simpson
Rob! - Noel Edmonds
Calderyon - Charlie Sheen
parmnion - Jimmy Savile
Strictly Jake - Steph and Dom (Gogglebox)
MB. - Michael Le Vell
Black Dagger - Ruby Wax
Mitchell - Noel Sullivan

AnnieK - Sam Markle
Cherie - Jaymi Hensley
Smithy - Sam Markle
Denver - Jay Camilleri
Dogeatdog - Stormy Daniels
Daniel - Janet Street Porter

Ammi - Jody Latham
Liam- - Sam Markle
LukeB - Sam Markle
Babayaro - Josie Cunningham
Cal - Big Ang
Tony Montana - Lil Wayne
Jake - Lil Kim


A strong showing of pointless answers again, but I guess the Sam Markle story stuck with a few of you too long, scoring 3pts. Jody Latham is the only other shared answer on 1pt.

9. Name a housemate that was evicted first from the House
Shaun - Murielle Dragon
Niamh - Anouska Golebiewski
Matthew. - Victoria Eisermann
MTVN - Anouska Golebiewski

parmnion - Mary O'Leary
Strictly Jake - Kitten
MB. - Zsofia Varga (BB Hungary 8)

Black Dagger - Tamara Stewart-Wood
Mitchell - Marco Pierre White Jr.
AnnieK - Penny Ellis
Cherie - Stephanie McMichael
Smithy - John McCririck
Denver - Miriam Madova

(technically Beinazir was first but technically she wasn't a Housemate, so... well played )
Babayaro - Mike Lubinski
Cal - Victoria Eisermann
Tony Montana - Shabnam Paryani
Jake - Vanessa Nimmo


Penny, Tamara, Vanessa & Victoria score 1pt
Anouska scores 2pts

Whilst Kitten was technically ejected, I've allowed it as an answer because she did have a live eviction show with Davina.

10. Name a TV channel that has aired Big Brother UK (or its spinoff shows)

One of those rare instances where choosing the obvious answers really paid off Some very smart plus-one answers, too.

Before I accidentally delete all of this and lose everything...


Music


1. Name a studio album released by The Beatles (no Greatest Hits or compilations)
2. Name a member of the UK girl group 'The Saturdays'
3. Name a winner of Best Original Song at the Academy Awards
(just a song title will suffice)
4. Pick a section of an orchestra (brass, woodwind, percussion or strings?)
5. Name a single that has reached #1 in the UK Top 40 at some point in 2020
6. Name a song with a colour in its song title
7. Name an annual awards ceremony that celebrates music in some capacity
8. Name a popular UK music festival
9. Name a member of the 27 Club
10. Name a single released by Stevie Wonder



For the Pointless edition: Wikipedia will very much be your friend here. The Beatles had 12 studio albums, so double check which one you submit because some of them were limited country-specific releases. Make sure you don't submit a song that was NOMINATED for Best Original Song instead of actually winning it. For question 10, any single released featuring Stevie Wonder will count, but I won't allow songs he's been sampled in, or songs he's performing an instrument on

I'm mostly intrigued by Bonnie being the most popular answer for first evictee tbh... I chose her because she sprung to my mind for some reason, but in hindsight I'd have thought everyone would go for the first one, or the most recent very odd

Incorrect answers will be in red and are each worth 24 points. I'm sorry if I couldn't reply to you in time, but I was quite clear with what the requirements were and it's fine; mistakes are easy to overcome in this game.

Oh, and, small reminder: I did say you could choose housemates from other international seasons for some of these, unless the question specifically asked for BBUK so unfortunately, a fair few shared BBUK answers were submitted.

1. Name a housemate that was evicted before the final in Big Brother 1 (UK)

Shaun - Caroline O'Shea
Niamh - Tom McDermott
Matthew. - Caroline O'Shea
MTVN - Nichola Holt
Rob! - Claire Strutton
Calderyon - Tom McDermott
parmnion - Nichola Holt
Strictly Jake - Andrew Davidson
MB. - Nichola Holt
Black Dagger - Andrew Davidson
Mitchell - Nichola Holt
AnnieK - Claire Strutton
Cherie - Andrew Davidson
Smithy - Sada Wilkington
Denver - "Cairon"
Dogeatdog - Andrew Davidson
Daniel - Andrew Davidson
Ammi - Andrew Davidson
Liam- - Claire Strutton
LukeB - Andrew Davidson
Babayaro - Claire Strutton
Cal - Claire Strutton
Tony Montana - Claire Strutton
Jake - Andrew Davidson


Tom & Caroline score 1pt
Nichola Holt scores 3pts
Claire Strutton scores 5pts
Andrew Davidson scores 7pts

Nobody answered with "Melanie Hill" which would've been the only pointless answer

2. Name a celebrity that "Hijacked" the house in 2007's E4 show "Big Brother: Celebrity HiJack"

Shaun - Gemma Merna
Niamh - Janet Street-Porter
Matthew. - Kate Lawler
MTVN - Peaches Geldof

Rob! - Gemma Merna
Calderyon - Andy McNab
parmnion - Scott Mills
Strictly Jake - Andy McNab
MB. - Gemma Merna
Black Dagger - Fifi Brown
Mitchell - Heidi Range
AnnieK - Brian Sewell
Cherie - Jonathan Jacob
Smithy - Amelle Berrabah
Denver - Roseanne Barr

Dogeatdog - Andy McNab
Daniel - Claire Cooper
Ammi - Brian Sewell
Liam- - Fifi Brown
LukeB - Jennifer Metcalfe
Babayaro - Andy McNab
Cal - Fifi Brown
Tony Montana - Jimmy Carr
Jake - Nicole Appleton


Brian Sewell scores 1pt
Fifi Brown & Gemma Merna score 2pts
Andy McNab scores 3pts

Everyone else manages a correct pointless answer, which is impressive! I could be mean and dismiss "Jonathan Jacob" as incorrect answer because he was a competition-winner and not a "celebrity" but I'm feeling nice here, since he did hijack the house for a day. Other potential pointless answers include James Corden, Dermot O'Leary, Craig David, Denise Van Outen and Ian Wright!

3. Name a female winner of the series

Shaun - Nevila Omeri
Niamh - Isabelle Warburton
Matthew. - Nadia Almada
MTVN - Chloe Wilburn
Rob! - Sophie Reade
Calderyon - Coleen Nolan
parmnion - Katie Price

Strictly Jake - Chloe Wilburn
MB. - Shay Mika Ifrah (BB Israel 7)
Black Dagger - Chloe Wilburn
Mitchell - Isabelle Warburton
AnnieK - Sophie Reade
Cherie - Chloe Wilburn
Smithy - Nadia Almada
Denver - Angelica Freij
Dogeatdog - Josie Gibson

Daniel - Chloe Wilburn
Ammi - Chloe Wilburn
Liam- - Chloe Wilburn
LukeB - Rachel Rice
Babayaro - Pia Filipcic

Cal - Sophie Reade
Tony Montana - Sophie Reade
Jake - Chloe Wilburn


Isabelle & Nadia score 1pt
Sophie Reade scores 3pts
Chloe Wilburn scores 7pts

A big congratulations to Dogeatdog and LukeB here for not only sticking with the BBUK theme, but pulling off a pointless answer. Only a handful drifted abroad, so we're left with a lot of points.

4. Name a housemate that walked from their series

Shaun - Donny Tourette
Niamh - Jonathan Durden
Matthew. - Megan Lowder
MTVN - Laura McAdam
Rob! - Laura McAdam
Calderyon - Leo Sayer
parmnion - Conor McIntyre

Strictly Jake - Mark Henderson
MB. - Liesel Pauwels (BB Belgium 4)
Black Dagger - Jonathan Durden
Mitchell - Shabby Khatchadourian
AnnieK - Sandy Cumming
Cherie - Isaac Stout

Smithy - George Askew
Denver - Donny Tourette
Dogeatdog - George Askew
Daniel - Saffia Corden
Ammi - George Askew
Liam- - Sunita Sharma
LukeB - Maysoon Shaladi
Babayaro - Rima Hadchiti

Cal - Jonathan Durden
Tony Montana - Mark Henderson
Jake - George Askew


Mark, Donny & Laura score 1pt
Jonathan Durden scores 2pts
George Askew scores 3pts

A strong showing for pointless scores here, considering the world was your oyster... but a big number of pointless BBUK names here too!

5. Name a housemate whose first name begins with the letter B (full name please!)

Shaun - Bastien Grimal
Niamh - Billi Bhatti
Matthew. - Bill 'Bunky' Miller
MTVN - Biannca Lake
Rob! - Belinda Harris-Reid
Calderyon - Ben Duncan
parmnion - Bez
Strictly Jake - Benedict Garrett
MB. - Boris Erwin Putra Simbolon (BB Indonesia 1)

Black Dagger - Billi Bhatti
Mitchell - Ben Duncan
AnnieK - Becki Seddiki
Cherie - Biannca Lake
Smithy - Brian Dowling
Denver - Benjamin Ringler

Dogeatdog - Ben Duncan
Daniel - Brooke Berry
Ammi - Becki Seddiki
Liam- - Biannca Lake
LukeB - Becki Seddiki
Babayaro - Bobby Hlad
Cal - Belinda Harris-Reid
Tony Montana - Ben Duncan
Jake - Becki Seddiki


I'm afraid I have to discount "Bez" because his full name is Mark Berry
Billi & Belinda score 1pt
Biannca scores 2pts
Becki & Ben score 3pts

Other pointless BBUK names could've been Brian Belo, Brigitte Nielsen, Ben Adams and Becky Hannon.

6. Name a country where Big Brother also has its own original series, other than the UK and USA

Shaun - Slovakia
Niamh - Italy
Matthew. - Italy
MTVN - Romania
Rob! - Philippines
Calderyon - Sweden
parmnion - Brazil

Strictly Jake - Germany
MB. - Bahrain

Smithy - Nigeria
Denver - Cyprus
Dogeatdog - Greece

Daniel - Germany
Ammi - Croatia
Liam- - Argentina
LukeB - Croatia
Babayaro - Russia
Cal - South Africa
Tony Montana - Somalia
Jake - Thailand


A lot of pointless answers here! Italy and Germany score 1pt, whilst Croatia scores 2.

7. Name a Celebrity Big Brother (UK) winner

Shaun - Bez
Niamh - Ryan Thomas
Matthew. - Paddy Doherty
MTVN - James Hill
Rob! - Paddy Doherty
Calderyon - Bez
parmnion - Rylan Clark

Cherie - James Hill
Smithy - Chantelle Houghton
Denver - Mark Owen
Dogeatdog - Mark Owen
Daniel - Paddy Doherty
Ammi - Scotty T
Liam- - Paddy Doherty
LukeB - Bez
Babayaro - Jim Davidson
Cal - Julian Clary
Tony Montana - Jim Davidson
Jake - James Hill


Chantelle, Jim & Scotty T score 1pt
Mark, Bez & James score 2pts
Paddy scores 4pts

A very difficult category to pull off a pointless answer in considering there's only 22 possible answers, so well done to those that did. But a lot of other names unused were Sarah Harding, Charlotte Crosby, Stephen Bear, Jack Dee, Shilpa Shetty, Alex Reid, Ulrika Jonsson and Denise Welsh.

8. Name a celebrity that was rumoured with appearing on CBB (UK) but never appeared on the show

Shaun - Alan Fletcher
Niamh - Jody Latham
Matthew. - Dina Lohan
MTVN - OJ Simpson
Rob! - Noel Edmonds
Calderyon - Charlie Sheen
parmnion - Jimmy Savile
Strictly Jake - Steph and Dom (Gogglebox)
MB. - Michael Le Vell
Black Dagger - Ruby Wax

Daniel - Janet Street Porter

Ammi - Jody Latham
Liam- - Sam Markle
LukeB - Sam Markle
Babayaro - Josie Cunningham
Cal - Big Ang
Tony Montana - Lil Wayne
Jake - Lil Kim


A strong showing of pointless answers again, but I guess the Sam Markle story stuck with a few of you too long, scoring 3pts. Jody Latham is the only other shared answer on 1pt.

9. Name a housemate that was evicted first from the House
Shaun - Murielle Dragon

Babayaro - Mike Lubinski
Cal - Victoria Eisermann
Tony Montana - Shabnam Paryani
Jake - Vanessa Nimmo


Penny, Tamara, Vanessa & Victoria score 1pt
Anouska scores 2pts

Whilst Kitten was technically ejected, I've allowed it as an answer because she did have a live eviction show with Davina.

10. Name a TV channel that has aired Big Brother UK (or its spinoff shows)
Shaun - E4
Niamh - Channel 5+1
Matthew. - Channel 4+1

MTVN - 5*

One of those rare instances where choosing the obvious answers really paid off Some very smart plus-one answers, too.

Right then... all of that explained, here's how you all performed!
