Hi Munchkin. 
Not much to say, really. I'm pretty chuffed about coming fourth ~ even although I missed a complete round. I think we're probably all awaiting the winner's acceptance speech ~ not to mention the big match tomorrow.
However, I'd like to propose a vote of thanks for our marvellous and meticulous organiser ~ Munchkin!
As far as future categories go, how about "American TV programmes that have been broadcast in the UK"? If they've been broadcast in both countries, they are likely to have been broadcast in the rest of the English-speaking world so it wouldn't be too Anglo-centric.
And the winner is...

Acceptance speech... I don't think so!
A few lucky guesses in the T/F round is closer to the mark, plus a brain full of junk which is terrible because there doesn't appear to be much room left for anything useful. Some of those T/F's were very imaginative and highly amusing.
I'm looking forward to some new questions, but while you are waiting there is a rather interesting trivia daily challenge associated with an American National Public Radio show called CarTalk (which you can also listen to on RealAudio). Watch out often the questions are trick Q.s. Try it out at

See you next time,

Ooo, newbies. Not many of you regulars yet though. And how come you are all getting the TFTM question right? I thought that was dead hard. Hmmph!

Looked up the web site of course, but didn't know at the time this isn't allowed. Sorry, won't do it again!

"Munchkin, can you keep it open for another couple of days," types a suddenly busy person

Munchkin Posted Jul 5, 2000
a) I have now received your answers, I just didn't connect the two names together.
b) It is unlikely I will post the answers until next week, as I am still receiving entries.

Oh, and if you are in the area, why not come to a Beer Festival in London (details at http://www.h2g2.com/A390386 ) We are going to fail badly in the Pub Quiz there!
