I love the music questions….they’re certainly more fazed by Duran Duran than Delibes…
In fact I love all the questions. I love the show. But how people so young know the answers to such a wide range of obscure and diverse subjects stuns me!

My old dad was convinced they were given some of the answers [but note, not the questions!] the week before appearing.

Yes. You can have fun at their gaps in knowledge, whilst also marvelling at the 80% of answer they DO know (but I don't!).
We caught the last 2 minutes of this Cam-vs-Cam clash. Never seen matching team jumpers before?! There was an absolute howler of an answer - something like guessing Kylie when the answer was Pink FLoyd, that level of appaling guesswork. If my brain was younger, I could probably remember the details ...

Who knows .
Never say never.
Tbh I'm dead chuffed, it's just coincidence that he's now living in Glasgow at the same time as I am here for the COP
But he's really got stuck in, and made lots of good connections in the movement, and helped out loads .
It's a cliché of course but these kids are the future.
And of some of my them really are brilliant !!

To be fair, Public Enemy were big before their parents' time. God this sort of thing makes me feel ancientYes, I saw that on You Tube. I can't believe they didn't know it was Public Enemy.

I took my daughter to see Queen with Adam Lambert (so perhaps 5 years ago). Her comment on the audience was "most of these people must have been old the first time round."To be fair, Public Enemy were big before their parents' time. God this sort of thing makes me feel ancient

My son, then around 23, and I went to see a film of the live performance of Jeff Wayne's War of the Worlds.
We both reckon I was the second youngest there.
