Mornings after this would have been perfect for it!

By time I got up she was Countdown time 😆

Wait did we live together on University street? Do you support Everton and could be found in your rockin chair with a bowl of tomato soup and half a loaf of Ormo white for your breakfast and a can of Tennents?

William G. Stewart was the boss. 15-1 was the best quiz going!

Boy I know went on it and actually won his episode but score was too low to reach the final. He said he got a bit nervous and the Norway flag appeared on a monitor near him and he was half rubbing the hands together saying I hope I get that one. Question came up, what flag is this? He said Denmark. Said he has no idea how or why but just blanked out with the nerves.

Fifteen to One is a by a distance the best quiz show format TV has produced. Just question after question after question but in no way boring.

The reboot they attempted was god awful.

William G was a  great host.

While we're on the subject ...

Yer  man Chris from Eggheads, who had the  hair on him like Father Jack ,  once answered the 40 questions in the  final trio round. It was  unbelievable to witness

Maybe I had too high an expectation but felt like The Boys finished up pretty poorly - All felt a bit rushed

I had to double check before the last episode to see if it was the finale as the last season has been pretty poor and lacked any real tension or brilliant episodes.

The final season was the weakest out of all of them, too many plot lines led nowhere. Great show all the same.
I tend to think of myself as a one man wolfpack...

Legends on Netflix is very good so far. Couple of episodes in. Set in the 90s civil servants trying to stop the flow of Heroin. A true story I believe.

(A legitimately held title unlike Dinny's)

Like all of these stories - trueish. I enjoyed it - entertaining stuff.
