VILLA ON MASTERMIND!

[cdbearsfan]

The Exploited you say? I thought we were talking about Scottish music not long-suffering Villa fans? Right, kids?

[dave.woodhall]

I got four in the Scottish pop. Shouldn't have bothered.

You and your brother were two of them.

[cdbearsfan]

I don't remember a Scottish pop group called "Intelligent, Good-Looking Older Brother and Nobhead Younger Sibling".

I prefer Scottish pop to Aston Villa these days.

Although Deacon Blue are on a par with Agbonlahor in my affections.

I'm with you on Deacon Blue but my other half despises them at the same level I reserve for Queen and U2. When they came up as first question last night she left the room, meaning that there wasn't anyone around to witness my genius.

She could have shown a bit more dignity?

The 'dancing' the woman did is one of the many irritating things about them

As Half Man Half Biscuit once sang:

I am the girl from Deacon Blue
Doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo

I got 3 on the Scottish pop round but 13 on the Villa one! Well chuffed.

Proud to have a fellow fan on a TV show that chose our great club as a subject . Whether he done badly or not , just glad he chose the Villa .

Being on the spot in a studio and in front of millions answering questions about the club you love  is slightly different to begin at home on the sofa wit a can of of Bud and answering questions about the club you love.

Dave Woodhall and I got the highest two scores ever on Sky's Club Class quiz many years ago, and I, for one, was shitting myself.

(22 and 21, and the questions were harder).

In the summer of 1989 I met a bloke in a pub / club in Edinburgh who said he had been in The Exploited. I believed him. Really decent chatty fella, and he had either stayed in Brum or played a few gigs there as he knew a number of the venues and bands from that era.

I then got the lowest ever in the next round, about general football.

[Big Dick Edwards]

I was gobsmacked he didn't get the Doug Ellis question. He seemed much better on the older stuff.

Me too. And McGrath being our PFA Player of the Year winner in 1993.

Got them all except the Dalian Atkinson one, where I didn't take in the question.

Also, those questions were long!  Aren't you allowed to interrupt?

Part of what I like about Mastermind is that they don't interrupt. The time you're allocated is based on how long it takes to answer not how long the question is, so there's no benefit to interrupting. Although if you guess incorrectly the time it takes him to read the correct answer does count against you. If you pass he doesn't read the correct answer until the end of the round.

Much better than University Challenge where the little oiks always answer after he says "Which poet...".
