Hmmm.... Tricky!

Cleoriff — Mon, 21 Mar 2022 09:47:59 GMT

I quite like it....bar one. 😂

RafaC — Mon, 21 Mar 2022 12:22:11 GMT

Tricky indeed @pgn
I've watched Tommy a few times but can't remember that cousin's name for the life of me.

Same applies to that Barbarella question, it rings a bell but can't remember! Guess I'll have to give some time for my mind to dig up those answers!

Mi-Amigo — Mon, 21 Mar 2022 13:07:35 GMT

Thanks guys for your comments.

As @pgn a couple of tricky questions this time.

Pleased you quite like the quiz @Cleoriff but which is the "bar one" you said ?

Maybe the musc questions just need a little thinking about and answers might come back to you @RafaC

Look forward to pm from each of you, and everyone else, with your answers later.
