dee_62 Posted December 1, 2016 Share Posted December 1, 2016 Complete p!sh. Knew the novel and guessed the country. 8 wrong guesses for a grand total of 2/10. I hate all things Aussie and NZ too. (Apart from Kylie...obviously) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frankie S Posted December 1, 2016 Share Posted December 1, 2016 (edited) That was brutal. 6/10. Far too many Aussie-specific questions, all four of which I got wrong. Rather bizarrely, Druk Yul came up in a pub quiz I did tonight. Semi-educated guess (which are the only kind I can land ATM) on Donatello. Knew the other 4. Miss the Guardian quiz. Shame The Times daily quiz is behind a paywall. Edited December 1, 2016 by Frankie S 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should add that I have access to The Times through subscription to The Australian although am sure it was supposed to have expired over a year ago. The quiz isn't interactive though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Been a while since I watched it, but aren't there only 5 to a team? Did you bribe one of the Eggheads to let you win? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would be a bit unfair to cut the player who hung around all day and didn't get on the show out of a share. Know a few of the Eggheads fairly well - all are of unimpeachable character, CJ excluded. Mind you, you wouldn't need to bribe him to beat him, he's just not that good. Edited December 1, 2016 by Frankie S 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for CJ, if it came to it you could just offer him an alibi. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
