f**k him, give him 0 for both days.! emoji12.png

It's a difficult one. Not quite sure what to do in this situation... although he has got the lowest total score so far, he only needs to score 2 points across both quizzes to climb above DHD. If he's been hit by a bus, I don't want his next-of-kin to be logging into P+B to see their dearly departed has been awarded a black star. And we can't decide the winner until alang comes along. What to do, what to do. 

In the meantime, we can amuse ourselves with the semi-final of the Diddly Dee Jam Jar Trophy. Feel free to post your scores unless you're in the draw, in which case, PM your score.

I got a healthy seven. And I missed a couple of sitters.

I got 7, too, much to my surprise.

Cheers Wren_Road. 

And you needn't worry Welshbairn, DHD's duck sadly sees him earn up a black star. But don't be disheartened. The shame of Gman's 3 stars seems to have lifted him out of the doldrums into mid-table respectability!

All we need now is alang1993 to come along with his score for Friday. 4 or above will see WRK pushed out the prizes, and 6 or more will see Edmund denied the gold star that he's always yearned.

If Dayman scores 10, he's top, shirley? Assuming alang doesn't get 8. It's all far to complicated for me, glad I'm just a diddy...:whistle

You certainly are. You keep quoting the entire league table, which means that if I do edit it, people will still be looking at the old one in your post :P

But you're quite right, both Dayman and Alang can achieve top and / or second spot.

It'll give them something to complain about.

A respectable 8/10 for me - let down by my knowledge of illustrators and Durrells.  Not sure what it has to do with BoB, though.  Surely if you get one question right you should have the option to answer up to another 4, making the quiz worth, possibly, 50 points. Shameless exploitation of the name by The Beeb, IMO.

Too soon to congratulate a winner but hard lines, Edmund.  Always the bridesmaid...
