...so Puss in Boots has had his own movie obviously but he isn’t a Disney character so isn’t technically correct...but...because he has a movie to be released in 2024, which is Disney...?...it’s describing him on the Disney wiki as an orange cat and the 1922 didn’t even consider orange as a colour so....

...it’s misleading so that answer was given in good faith and will be accepted in good faith...

thanks Ammi there was definately a more recent Puss in Boots released 2011 which was a spin off with Antonio Banderas voicing the cat again

I think you have done the right thing, at this stage it is more or less anyones game especially if there is a double points round as per usual

where did Girth spring from?

[Niamh.]

I was thinking as well another rule that might help the host to be able to say an answer is wrong and not totally rule someone out of the running is, if the worst score for the question was 3 then you could give the person who answered wrong a 4 so one point more than the highest score, if you know what i mean?

[Ammi]

...I do that if someone doesn’t complete a round...I take the highest points for each question and add 1...if it’s a total 0 point question then I’ll put that person down as a 1 point...

[Ammi]

....thank you, Alf...I appreciate your thoughtfulness......we won’t have a break if it’s ok with everyone as I’d like to get started on ML as well as soon as possible also...

[Shaun]

not to pile on but GiRTh and I said the same answer for the Marlon Brando film (sorry Girth for pointing this out )

Yeah but I mean just for if someone does send their answers in but happens to answer one question with a wrong answer
