    This has been a splendid way to spend the last hour or so! Thank you. I was doing quite well until I got to the quotes from a certain radio presenter, so there's now a big gap of four answers. Anyway, they're coming now...

    I managed to f*** it up at the end! Spent too long thinking about one and put 16 I think!!
  3. I thought I would have a go at this, but it turns out to be pretty difficult! I've only named three for sure. Lots of others are familiar, but I can't name them (and some I have no idea about). Aaaagh! :-)

    How the heck do you manage to play these seven foot discs? In fact, how do you even get them home? :lol:
  5. Done!
  6. 19/21. Happy with that!
  7. Is it a Girls Aloud / Bucks Fizz mash-up? Or a The Human League / Bucks Fizz mash-up, perhaps? 😄
  8. Indeed. My release day copy of Goody Two Shoes has 'Adam and the Ants' on the LABEL! I always hoped it would be worth a fortune. Apparently not. :o
  9. Considering that Brooklyn Beckham has only taken the cover photo for his little brother's single, the chances of him also releasing a song at the same time seem remote. :lol:
  10. Me too, but as I was placing my bet on Coral, she shortened from 25/1 to 20/1. The money's on Mariah!

    Oh, yikes. I hope you're being looked after and feel better soon.

    Sorry to read that you've been ill. I hope those two dropped home points on Friday night didn't make you feel any worse. (But we are very grateful for yet another Villa draw, so thanks very much.) :-)
  13. Here's another one for your list: Sarah Brightman & Paul Miles-Kingston - Pie Jesu #3 1985 LATIN (Translation: Pious Jesus)
  14. My ten predicted qualifiers: 01 Latvia 02 Poland 06 Serbia 08 FYR Macedonia 09 Lithuania 10 Australia 12 Bulgaria 14 Ukraine 16 Georgia 18 Belgium
  15. Adam, did you just decide to go Yes/No/Yes/No etc all the way through, or was this a thought-out process? :lol:
  16. Thanks. My grandmother from Galway would've been proud. :)
  17. If you are continuing, can I have 2SF4 please? Thank you, merci, Danke.
  18. I like what you did there. If Romania/TVR doesn't have the money to compete though, they don't have the money to finance a delegation's trip to Stockholm, hotels, rehearsals etc. This just isn't going to happen.

    I bought a whole load of vinyl on Saturday (Record Store Day), but I haven't had a record player since about 2000. I am looking at buying one now though...

    This really hits home with me. My Gran really did have Jim Reeves albums in her tiny record collection. She loved him! :D

    I feel good now - I got 19/22. :D The correct answer to one of the questions isn't even listed as an option. You have to get into the stupid mindset of the OCC to get it right... (Thankfully, I am able to do that. :lol: )
  22. I inadvertently bought a single by the US Divine group, thinking I'd found a rarity by the Hi-NRG Divine (who I loved). Imagine my disappointment when I played it... :no:
  23. That's up 15 for Ben Haenow, up 8 for Little Mix and down 1 for Ellie Goulding. Says it all about the performances really!
  24. They could do the 'midweeks' on a Tuesday lunchtime and we could pretend it was the actual chart, just like 'the olden days'. (Bring back Whoo Gary Davies...) :w00t:

    Did anyone else notice the utter bollox that Fearne Cotton 'announced' in today's TOTP? Instead of saying that Meghan Trainor had the first song to enter the top 40 on streaming alone, she said AATB got to number one on streaming alone! Where do they get the scriptwriters from? They're just making up stuff. Whatever happened to fact-checking and BBC journalistic standards? Happy new year!
