INTERESTING MOMENTS
We tweaked a picture question of ex-military members who have moved on to new occupations to include one of our hosts. But nobody noticed that the sharp dressed Marine was the guy hosting the quiz they were at.
We asked a question to which the answer was Jonathan Thurston, and gave the hint that he was the same height as our host. Because why not be as unhelpful as possible?
On a question about the biggest countries in the EU, we reminded everyone that England wasn’t in the EU. And three teams still said England.
The last place subject was Colin Firth at one show, and one team watched Bridget Jones’ Diary in preparation that day, right before we asked a question on the scene that introduced Mark Darcy.
And a bonus question on the proportion of Australians approved of torture ended when the first team to guess got it exactly right. How someone became such an expert on torture, we didn’t want to know.
See you next week.
