Never had you down as a wrestling fan. Incidentally, should I ever choose to appear on Mastermind, two of my specialist subjects would be PCBH and WWE. Which is pretty much the reason I've not applied for it.

If Slippery doesn't post his play off question the alternative can be this.

Which Home & Away female Star did Tynie literally bump into in a Sydney Night Club in 1999?  If nobody gets it, the back up question is, how long is the Sydney Harbour Bridge in feet?

Zen.... do you pop your head round the door of every thread in P+B?

btw, I wasn't a grown man when I watched Neighbours. My favourite young lovely was Serendipity Gottlieb. An oft-forgotten honey from the era. 

You like a ginger bush sport?

Mine were Fish-era Marillion and the history of Linfield. I got through to the final interview but couldn't make it.

Probably for the best.

I also have a Neighbours name dropping story dating back to the old Shadows nightclub in Belfast involving Stefan Dennis (Paul Robinson), that ended with five of us getting thrown out.

Was that when he was in Belfast with "Whose Life is it Anyway?" ?  .... I went when I was at school then went round to the stage door afterwards to meet the man himself. It started snowing and he said that he'd never seen snow before. The lying b*****d.

No mate. Shadows did a series of "celebrity" guest appearances back in the day and he was there one week when a group of us were on the town. The chat had been going back and forward between Dennis and the audience, with the help of an emcee. Someone asked him if he knew any Irish jokes and he said something to the effect "No, and I wouldn't want to offend anyone. Do you know any Australian jokes?" Quick as a flash a drunken mate who I'll call Stephen, (because that is his name), said "Aye, you ya cnut", resulting in much laughter and our wee group being ejected. Hardly worth the telling, but it was amusing at the time.

7/10 for me, too. All guesses, some more educated than others. 

Incidentally, my score of 70% was 3% better than the average...
