That had me in fits too! :lol: :lol: :lol:

BTW, was listening to it one day last week, maybe Wednesday or Thursday, and there was a woman going for the 3 in 10, KB said Hot Chocolate, then she said absolutely nothing for maybe 7 or 8 seconds then blurted out 3 titles very quickly just in time. VERY suspicious indeed if you ask me. If you type 'UK hit singles by' into the search box of right dedicated site and just leave it like that before you go on, takes maybe 4 or 5 seconds to type in the artist as soon as KB says it and up pops your list. Sounded very much to me like that's what she did because of the long silence.

Yes I thought the same!

In a similar vein did anyone see Breakfast TV the other day when Naga asked Charlie "when did you last see a beaver"? Classic :lol:

The lady said on twitter that she'd written the answers down first. Twitter didn't appear to believe her. I don't think she cheated on her questions, she was quite knowledgeable.

I don't recall anything suspicious during her normal questions but, come on, who would bother to write the answers down first when you've only got 10 seconds? Absolute bollocks if you ask me.

I had my suspicions that she cheated when I heard it live, hearing it for the 2nd time on your link, I'm absolutely convinced now!

Is there anything in the rules to say she can't do what many suspect her of?

I'm sure there aren't any written rules as it's just a bit of fun so cheating on that level is morally reprehensible and should carry the death penalty?

Today's scores were 3 and 0 ffs!

 

[legoman]

Tbf I thought both sets were really tough today. I normally get 15 - 24 range but today only 12 and 3!

Used to have 5 questions over the phone to see if you had any knowledge beforehand. Now it's send in an email.

Well Ken, if I get 3 I'll be happy. Shouldn't be on it then.

Just had a listen, they weren't the easiest, had 12 & 15, 3 in 10 finished with White Riot.
Don't think Ken helped him as it would have been a tie break on 3 apiece
