I thought I did quite well too tonight. Music round was easy enough, did OK on the county sign round, couple of the pictures and a few others.

I'm filled with such a perverse sense of happiness whenever Jeremy Paxman uses the word popular and an unconquerable sadness when, as is more common, he instead says classical. | Click to see full-size image. |

Haha! Really? I know Nerve-ana and I posted them somewhere before but I couldn't remember where. I got the Bay City Rollers, two of the cloud questions, the plimsoll line and seven others that I can't remember atm. |

Yuh, I also got 11. Unfortunately nirvana only managed 9 in our type-off, so is now 1-0 down on the cereal. |

Our scores extremely depressed by needing to type them before they speak them. I got 39 right by normal measures.

Damn you - had to watch it now that you posted that.
Seems to have been a particularly soft week. I would say that the road signs, in particular, were too easy for UC.
11, which is a lot more than normal, though I had an unfair advantage with the Dublin one.

i'm getting 9-11 questions right per episode in this new series
don't remember getting anywhere near that previously
seems to me that the questions are a bit more populist (more recent music, some sport etc) and pssobily they've been dumbed down a bit?
get tremendously frustrated when intelligent captains don't listen to the question and answer "a room with a view" and not E M Forster too! several examples of this last night

Also 'U2' when he clearly asked for the singer. I don't think the questions have been dumbed down all that much (a lot of them are still 'stuff you should know if you're doing a physics/maths/history/etc degree') but there have been a few more populist ones thrown in (mostly so Paxo can sneer at them). It was also lovely that they let Kate Middleton play for Newcastle last night. |

Irritating that they keep blurting their answer out over the sound of their own buzzer as well.
Got about 6/7 last night. Me and the missus shouting Craig David in unison after 1 second being the highlight.
Got the Swan Lake one but did answer Swan Lake to the previous two questions as well so I guess that devalues that answer.
