Me too...now that really is a useless bit of information to store!!

On the Big Money Round of Family Fortunes, Led Dennis asked a gentleman 'name a type of ache?' The response was a 'fillet of fish'.

Saw this when it was originally shown back in the day.

Old Max Bygraves, a jolly contestant with his family quietly fuming behind, and of course 'Turkey'.

Hilarious, I actually applauded when he got 21 points for turkey.

It's a favourite of mine also.According to a youtube comment,it's from a cable channel which was based in Bristol in the 90's.

The brilliant Steve Harvey hosting Family Feud, the American version of Family Fortunes and this doozy of an answer to the question: "Name something that follows the word 'pork...'"

Good God,they just scream and shout the whole way through.

When she shouted,"LOIN! LOIN! PORK LOIN!",and then she spells it out because the host doesn't understand - and she spells it L-I-O-N.

I'd have held her to "Lion" - "Sorry,it's not up there".

James Bond drives an Austin Martin according to this woman on today's Tipping Point!

How has that host still got a job. He is dreadful!

Was that the same woman who thought Margaret Thatcher made a cameo appearance in a non singing role In a comic opera at The Royal Opera House in 2012.

There was a belter on The Chase today.

"The football derby between teams nicknamed the Gunners and the Hammers takes place in which city?"

"Chicago."

Tipping point today:

"Used in lightbulbs, which metallic element has the highest melting point?"
Answer offered: "Mercury" - That well known metallic element that is already molten at room temperature!

"What was the name of Nelson's flagship during the battle of Trafalgar?"
Answer offered: "The Cutty Sark"

Two Tribes yesterday:

RICHARD OSMAN: The amorous cartoon character Pepe Le Pew is a depiction of which black and white mammal?

FIRST CONTESTANT: Mouse.

SECOND CONTESTANT: Panda.

THIRD CONTESTANT: Whale?

Pretty lame answer but at least it's a sailing ship.

Incidentally I believe the reason there has never been another ship in the Royal Navy called HMS Victory (unlike,say,the Ark Royal,of which there have been several over the years) is that it is technically still a commissioned ship in the Navy and has never been retired.

Perhaps we should resurrect the Tipping Point thread,since so many of these seem to be from it.

But I don't even know if there is one.

To be fair,you have to have heard of Pepe Le Pew to get that,you're never going to be able to guess skunk. The only one of those three I would think was a pretty poor answer is mouse. Badger would have been a reasonable guess as well.

Yes HMS Victory is still a serving ship and taken very seriously by those serving in the Royal Navy. Each year on Trafalgar day they hold a service onboard it and its a very sacred affair. Nelson was their God and that's his ship and it's treated as such.

Today's Tipping Point gem:

"Which Labour Party leader lost both the 1987 and 1992 General Elections?"

"Harold MacMillan."

Wrong party and about thirty years out.

He was young and probably wasn't alive in 1987 but I've never thought that's much of an excuse to not knowing the answers to what I consider to be relatively easy questions. At the end of the day these people volunteer to go on these shows and therefore should be expected to have a reasonable general knowledge.

Incidentally Harold MacMillan's first name was Maurice. Harold was his middle name.

George Osbourne was born Gideon Osbourne. He changed his name when he was thirteen.

I think that's a bit of a harsh example, I imagine a large proportion of people would struggle to recall the losing Labour leader of 2010, let alone from a quarter of a century ago.

Although I wasn't even 2 months old for the 1992 election and even I know it was Kinnock.

Maybe I was being a bit harsh but then I'm a bit anal about politics and stuff.

I can name all the Prime Ministers since 1900 and all the election years since then.

I would get the defeated candidate in all the post war elections but I might struggle a bit before then.

Crikey, I consider myself a politics nerd but that's impressive!

Although I watched Millionaire last night, the £500k question was "Who was PM when women got the vote?", I was pretty chuffed at knowing that. GCSE History finally having a use

Without cheating by Googling it I'd say that was LLoyd George.

Indeed it was! Anyway, we're taking this off topic a tad...

I'm waiting for the question "In which country was PM Lloyd George born?". It would be interesting to see how many people got it right.

Well the obvious answer is Wales. But clearly it can't be that or you wouldn't be commenting on it. So I looked it up. It's Manchester,but both his parents were Welsh and Wikipedia considers him the only Welsh Prime Minister.

Tony Blair was born in Edinburgh but he's never made much of his Scottish roots.

The Duke of Wellington was born in Dublin but never considered himself Irish,he is supposed to have remarked that,"Being born in a stable does not make one a horse."
