Lisa Cuddy Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 Anyone play? 10.30 on Radio 2. Thought it would be a fun thing like the Guardian quiz in GN. I actually play in a group on Facebook where we just post our scores and slag off the contestants for sounding like boring b*****ds and reeling off lists of everyone they've ever met when they say their hellos at the end. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigmouth Strikes Again Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 I listen everyday, usually do alright, but never bother adding my score up. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zen Archer (Raconteur) Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 I got 30 on the first round and 15 on the second today. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lisa Cuddy Posted January 26, 2015 Author Share Posted January 26, 2015 24 points in both rounds for me today. 2 bonuses in the first, all three in the second. The two David Bowie original versions were utter crap compared to the covers. You wouldn't expect it from Bowie really but there you have it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zen Archer (Raconteur) Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 Can you still win a Radio 2 round thing? Janice Long? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lisa Cuddy Posted January 26, 2015 Author Share Posted January 26, 2015 Can you still win a Radio 2 round thing? You can win a digital radio and, if you're very lucky, a One Year Out t-shirt. You have to be one year out on the guess the year questions though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
throbber Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 I used to do it when my life had routine, would have my 10 o clock tea break a little bit after 10 as the second round usually starts after half past Don't really do it now sadly 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rush-QoS Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 Listen most days but never scored 39 though i,ve got 36 a couple of times. i tend not to be very good on the years question in fact i,ve been as much as 10 years out. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebbes20silkcut Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 I've been on twice both times scored 12 points so at least I was consistent, the previous few weeks to me being on the questions were very 80s and 90s orientated, until I went on only one question post 1970s. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
throbber Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 I usually get between 9 - 27 Im pretty solid on the questions from the 90s on but before then not so good which i suppose comes down to me not being alive at that time and i don't like music from those decades 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grim O'Grady Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 My mates been on but came second so he ended up with the 1 year out t-shirt. I do it if I'm out in the car at 10.30. Grimbo 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guessed 1976 for one of the years yesterday. The actual answer was 1967. I've been on twice both times scored 12 points so at least I was consistent, the previous few weeks to me being on the questions were very 80s and 90s orientated, until I went on only one question post 1970s.

See above. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suspect Device Posted September 23, 2021 Share Posted September 23, 2021 (edited) Do it every day. Even managed to get 39 twice. Only 21 on the first today. 24 in the 2nd. Anything 'new' I'm knackered though. By new I mean in the last 20 years. 70s, 80s I'm fine with.

mozam76 Posted September 23, 2021 Share Posted September 23, 2021 Have managed 33 on a few occasions but normally it's a spectacularly average "anywhere between 9-24 Ken". I have tried to get on a couple of times, most notably on my 40th birthday - answered two out of the three qualifying questions, and was told thanks but no thanks. Was pissed off, and even more so when the two clowns that did make it on scored a couple of dozen between them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suspect Device Posted September 23, 2021 Share Posted September 23, 2021 I've been tempted to do it but shat out because I just know it would be 'one of those days' and I'd make a tit of myself by getting 3. Wouldn't want to get 39 on the show because when it gets to the champions league stage at the end of the year I can't answer any of the questions. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimi Shandrix Posted September 23, 2021 Share Posted September 23, 2021 I've heard it a couple of times in hospital waiting rooms. Sounds like a good laugh and like something I might be quite good at. Sadly, I didn't like it enough to listen to Radio 2. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm giving up on 6 music as well now though. Just stick my own playlist, normally. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very rarely listen to anything on the radio unless it's Night Tracks or Late Junction on Radio 3. You're probably doing the right thing sticking to your own playlist. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lurkst Posted September 25, 2021 Share Posted September 25, 2021 Anyone hear the Welsh madman on it the other day who used his 30 seconds to give a shoutout "to David Icke and my fellow truth seekers around the world" Ken Bruce passed no comment. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
