Gabrielle was also a pointless answer but I'm struggling to remember any of the others at the moment. <br /><br />I thought Sonia might be one but her name didn't come up. (While there were 9 names mentioned yesterday that doesn't necessarily mean that there were only 9 pointless answers - sometimes there are so many that they don't have time to list every single one. That's what I keep telling myself anyway.)<br /><br />But this programme is head & shoulders above every other quiz on TV at the moment, and the humorous, relaxed banter between the two hosts is remarkably refreshing to behold in this otherwise hopelessly hyperbolic day and age & all. Well worth iPlayering or recording for those times when you're not commuting anyway!Kippershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00204054692989383519noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-141796840572698100.post-46172783742740840452012-02-14T20:43:35.742+00:002012-02-14T20:43:35.742+00:00So help me with this Kips.

(I always miss that quiz show due to my love of commuting on packed trains and sneaking for a quick sherbert).<br /><br />When I got in yest, my daughter said there was a question about British female singers having had a (solo) No 1 in the UK. Evidently, there were 9 'Pointless' answers? This set me thinking. I would struggle with any names from the past 10 years or so, but what were the answers?<br />I would wager, Mary Hopkin, Tamsin Archer, Lena Martell, Helen Shapiro, but struggling after that.dickvandykehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13590436106154960912noreply@blogger.com
