After a slow start in Trivia and History rounds, we hit the quiz jackpot with a jokered 12 point music round, doubling up to 24. We then played it safe in the last few rounds to cruise home with a 4 1/2 point vistory. However, our dominating second in-a-row win didn't bring with it the addulation of the rest of the pub, but a rather significant amount of abuse. This made our victory all the sweeter and we shall return in a fortnight to complete our hat-trick.
Reduced prize money (Helen was absent and replaced with a sub) meant we only added £10 to the curry fund, now totalling £26.
To this weeks quiz awards:
* The "Would Never of Got That" Award 32 (How many times around the world would all of the fish fingers ever sold wrap?)
* The "Why Won't You Listen to Me" Award for Most Ignored Answers Subsitute Chrissie, three overuled answers (Longleat, Chameleon, 175 years)
* The "Where Did That Come From" Award Gary again for Sir Francis Chichester - knighted in 1967 with the same sword as Sir Francis Drake
* The Big Al "Are You Sure" Award Allen for Leonardo DiCaprio in identifying the picture below of an Olympian turned Actor. He was pretty certain until the real answer of Johnny Weismuller, Tarzan actor, was given. Our written answer of Marlon Brando wasn't much better, but at least it was in the right era. Allen claims to have 20-20 vision.
