They all played the Emerging Artists Stage at Woodstock 1999.

Actually they shared the stage with Fatboy Slim, Moby, Muse, Gigalo Aunts and most bizarrely John Entwistle.

Who Unlike the above, I've actually heard of them. yes

The finalists on Pointless have chosen Doctor Who! Excited

1) Name any of the assistants
2) Name any of the cast of Day of the Doctor
3) Name anyone who's written an episode since 2005

hmm

by **The Call of the Wendigo** Tue Jun 11, 2019 5:59 pm

I still don't understand how Pointless works. Are we supposed to come up with wrong answers?

by Guest Tue Jun 11, 2019 6:11 pm

I think you're supposed to come with a correct answer, but one that most people don't know, so katarina would score more than K9.

I think. The entire show seems to have 10 minutes of content over 45 minutes, so I never watch it. That and the smugfest of the presenters. Spock Smug

You need to come up with as obscure an answer to the question as you can think of - one that the least (or better still none) of the 100 people that question-setters asked could themselves come up with.

Example - Name a team in the 4 English professional football leagues...

So, don't say Man Utd or Arsenal or Liverpool, instead try to come up with a very obscure, minor team like Bury or Yeovil Town or Sheffield Utd.

Whenever I come home from work and turn the modern telly on, while the USB hard disc is spinning up so I can start watching old eps of Danger Man while I do yoga, there's always the same cr*ppy quiz show on, and I've just realised it must be Pointless.

by **The Call of the Wendigo** Tue Jun 11, 2019 6:58 pm

In that case:

1) Name any of the assistants.
Dodo.

2) Name any of the cast of Day of the Doctor.
Ken Bones.

3) Name anyone who's written an episode since 2005.
Rona Munro.
