The pictures were so small, I'm surprised I got as many as I did.

Richard said Adamski and Seal was a pointless answer in the jackpot round when the song was just credited to Adamski.
I also refuse to believe UAE weren't pointless if Colombia and Romania were |

Font is correct, although so many people misuse it that fount has almost taken over.

Going back to the original point, I too was a bit thrown by the wording of the 'categorise' definition. The simple insertion of the word 'to' at the beginning would have removed all ambiguity from the definition - or perhaps they wanted it to be a bit tricky

Here's another who thought it was a noun rather than a verb.

Another vote for a badly worded question. I thought place meant "a place". I did get categorise though despite their efforts to confuse.
The pictures were appalingly small, close-ups were required, and that WAS C-3PO, I don't care about the answer they gave...in fact I can't even remember who that was. |

Hope Richard mentions Love Over Gold (by Dire Straits) was also the title of the Gold Blend couple tie-in novel (no, really
)

I'm no doubt getting into Fight Club territory but what exactly is this "Prevening all" business? Google brings up basically nothing, bar various typos, but this thread...

'Prevening' was a word used once in the Big Bang Theory. Sheldon Cooper invented it to describe the time between afternoon (12.00-4 or 5pm) and the evening (6pm onwards). A -pre-evening, if you will. I liked it, so use it on here.
