That'll be it 
.
Over to you L.
Odd one out. Again.
Beatrice Posted Feb 10, 2003
Pick the odd one out:
Purpose
Rumour
French cat lover
Magazine lost, we're told
Freedom multiplies
Shortened siblings
Odd one out. Again.

I'll say rumour. The only one with the British spelling.
Odd one out. Again.
Bagpuss Posted Feb 10, 2003
Seems to me they're all written with the British spelling.
Odd one out. Again.
Pinniped Posted Feb 10, 2003
Toughie, innit?
Maybe "shortened siblings" = bros ?
...It would be a start, anyhow...
(This cat-lover thing. What's "chatelaine" mean?)
Odd one out. Again.
Mycroft Posted Feb 11, 2003
A chatelaine is the mistress of a castle or a keychain, but not the mistress of a keychain.
I'll guess Freedom Multiplies is the odd one out because the rest represent bands which no longer exist.
Odd one out. Again.
Beatrice Posted Feb 11, 2003
Some excellent guesswork going on....but I need reasons, people!
Odd one out. Again.
Mycroft Posted Feb 11, 2003
Might be a cartoon thing if that helps any one: French cat lover could be Pepe le Pew, who's a Warner Bros character.
Odd one out. Again.
The Ghost of Polidari Posted Feb 11, 2003
Rumour would be Hearsay.
Are we looking at manufactured bands here?
Odd one out. Again.
The Ghost of Polidari Posted Feb 11, 2003
Obviously a little stuck....
French cat lover could be 'Bardot' who I seem to remember were a duo put together for the Eurovision song contest?
Odd one out. Again.
Mu Beta Posted Feb 11, 2003
I tried posting this yesterday, about half an hour after the question. Might have saved you a bit of time:
Purpose
Rumour = Hearsay
French cat lover
Magazine lost, we're told
Freedom multiplies = Liberty X
Shortened siblings = Bros
Odd one out. Again.
The Ghost of Polidari Posted Feb 11, 2003
'Magazine lost, we're told' could well be Boyzone (Boy's Own).
Odd one out. One more time.
Beatrice Posted Feb 11, 2003
B's got 2, Polidari's got 2 (incl one of Bs), but for not precisely the reason.
You're all getting there, dont want to rush in with clues too fastly.
Odd one out. One more time.
loosehead Posted Feb 11, 2003
Magazine lost, we're told - is there a mag called Miss - ing??
Key: Complain about this post
