That was a good guess on the TV question! The challenge is to remember it the next time.

Well I got the pop music question for a change -Peteguessometer - but it flubbed the film question. Not bad though.

Lucky Guess Piglet may not be very fast (tail end of the 10/10s), but she's back.
Can I keep the guessometer™ for a wee while longer? ![[Smile]](smile.gif)

You can have it back now - it doesn't work for 'Murcan television shows that were aired when I didn't even know where America was.

I didn't even bother with the last question. Never heard of any of them. Fillums should be banned and pop music muted in these quizzes.

Got the easiest question wrong - that's what comes of skim-reading the questions to save time. And I didn't even save time cos I had to go back on one.
