On the Chase today, that Paul guy is a complete nutter. On the Beatles question, Catherine said 1964 (the correct answer) and Paul ignored her. The Chaser won by just 6 seconds...

Rhys Benjamin

Now that Pointless has moved, it clashes with The Chase.

So what do you watch live and which one do you iplayer/itvplayer?

I'd also like to say that the Circle Line will be out of action that day. The Hammersmith & City and Metropolitan will still work.

I thought I would put this on here, because whilst James has been away, it's been havoc for the few wiki editors (myself included) who have to step into James' shoes, and actually, it's quite, erm... easy. :lol: :!: :mrgreen: :geek: :ugeek: 8-) So, for those who only put their recaps on the forum, t...

Political Countdown recap for Thursday 1 September 2011. Well, we made it through August, but we have a prospect of an octochamp on the first day back to work or school for some. If he becomes an octochamp, he'll create more spaces for contestants, much like George Osborne. DT: Champion Dave Taylor ...

Rhys Benjamin

Guided us home? And bowled quite well. Bowled one rubbish over where the batsman hammered two balls straight to the infielder, one of them bounced the other didn't. A regulation win was turned into a toss of a coin because he batted like Boycott but without the mental strength - see the way he bott...

I've always suspected there was something odd about Rhys.

Monty Burns must be under 13 then.

Craig Beevers wrote:Not out again. One of the worst innings you'll ever see. So glad they overlooked a young hard-hitting Durham player with tons of potential for that proven shower of shit.

I also would have brought in Steve Davies as keeper, and Rory Hamilton-Brown as 12th man.

Rhys Benjamin

I think it's this . There's no crash sound. I think Rhys might just mean the racing noises were from the same race. But even if the "proof" video no longer exists, you could at least tell us the way in which the video enlightened you to this fact. Cheers Gavin. Sounds like standard stock ...

Rhys Benjamin

Technically? You mean they sampled the engine noise and the crunch or something? It sounds unlikely. The only "evidence" is apparently some video that was taken down from YouTube. And why would a shampoo advert use the audio from a Formula 1 crash in which someone dies? Who could possibly...

Go on. I'm in.

On a player's profile in the game, could it show their Pro Rank, so you know who you can beat to achieve that landmark?

Anyone know when this is repeated, we've missed the first episode. Onthebox.com seems to only show it is repeated on Tuesday morning at 2:25, which seems odd as it's only a few hours after the original screening.

Today's Rick Astley question was probably the funniest thing on Pointless for a while. For those of you who didn't see it: In the head-to-head, one of the questions was "Things that Rick Astley was "Never Gonna" do", so basically anything that followed "Never Gonna", i...

Having been a hardcore fan since 2006, missing only 2 qualifying sessions and no races, I can't believe that I have to shell out hundreds of thousands of pounds to watch our favourite sport.

So BBC cutting back on the coverage and in their wisdom decide one of the 9 races they're going to show is Monaco.

I'd probably have a montage of great contestants and their nine-letter words.

I remember an advert for Countdown shown during Series 54. It was a dark affair of a montage of Conor Travers with a dodgy voice, "Can anyone stop 14-year-old Conor Travers?"
