RESULTS: Pointless- Lotti & Richie's No Googling Edition
Sorry to Chez for missing some of your answers off...I must have been distracted half way through. Alicia Vikander was your answer for the oscars one and "The Muffin Man" for Shrek, so that would have pushed that answer up to 1 from Pointless. No answer given for the Sherman Brothers :D

RESULTS: Pointless- Lotti & Richie's No Googling Edition
That's exactly why I prefer it if people don't Google, if the questions are varied then it should mostly even out. For the record, I wouldn't have been able to answer the Lana Del Ray question and I'd have had no choice but to go for Dory for the female Nemo character. Otherwise, I'd have been pretty ok (but then I did set half the questions!) I was originally going to post a bit more about who the Sherman Brothers are / were (one is now dead) but I thought, nah...it was all worth it for Regina's answer.

Your Votes/Predictions for Tory Leader and UK PM
It's like voting to be pummelled to death by a baseball bat but getting to choose what colour it is.

Metronomy - Summer 08
Been enjoying Old Skool for a few weeks now - their best song since My Heart Rate Rapid I'd say. Will give the album a listen later on.

Next Conservative leader?
What a c**t - he doesn't even have the decency to step in and clean up the mess he made.

Rio 2016 Olympic Thread
Blake is just back from a long time out but is looking pretty good. But the Jamaican 100m team is really tough to get into, there are new stars coming through all the time - hopefully see them both there though. I can't wait for the 100m final!

England's next manager
I'm a bit worried Big Sam will still fancy it. That said, the way Sunderland start every season, he'd be gone by October anyway.

Things that you are tired of seeing in sport
BBC Sport treating Rory McIlroy as the only golfer in the world.

Time for Sturgeon to shut up.
That's the opinion of one EU prime minister and, it's Spain...you might as well just replace "Scotland" with "Catalonia" or "Basque Country".

Taskmaster
It's an excellent show - the original format debuted at the Edinburgh Fringe. It was devised by co-host Alex Horne (who I guess the producers didn't think was famous enough to host his own show, so they got Davies in) Series 2 has been real fun so far - Richard Osman, Katherine Ryan, Jon Richardson, Doc Brown and Joe Willkinson all competing against each other in strange little tasks. The best one was "make a music video for a nursery rhyme in one hour". Series 1 had Frank Skinner, Josh Widdecombe, Romesh Ranganathan, Roisin Conaty and Tim Key.

Well, post one that mentions a story that at least follows the story in part! Anyway, that was a question I'd never have scored on, couldn't think of anything other than Blair Witch (which I thought was what you were asking for!)

Time for Sturgeon to shut up.
Conveniently forgetting that Scotland leaving the UK would have seen us having to reapply to the EU - a threat which was one of the main weapons the No campaign used. Still, as long as it's working out for you, Common Sense. We should know our place, shouldn't we?

You're all right there, are you, Jack?

England's next manager
I love the way every time England sack a coach it flips between the next one "needing to be English" or "needing to be foreign"! There tend to be far too many individuals who look better than they are due to playing with genuinely world class colleagues at club level. Don't worry about the coach's club career - interview properly to find somebody who can recognise what elements are required from a team - and perhaps call training sessions more frequently if they can (and that will often be down to the clubs). One thing that may come from this is that some players may genuinely have to decide between club and country. Or money. Get the right people picked and you may start to see team performances. Like Iceland.

World Cup Qualifying
Even with the best chance to qualify for the World Cup in ages, Scotland will still manage to come third in their group. Probably beat England home and away but get thrashed by Slovakia and scrape draws against Lithuania and Slovenia.

Other countries you support in international football
Always liked Switzerland and Croatia (must be the red and white) and I always find myself cheering on the Italians, but I don't know why.

I'm not buying that Child's Play was based on a true story just because some lazy journalist used it as a hook. That story bears no resemblance to the film whatsoever. And my Harry Kirri joke was lost on you! http://www.dictionary.com/browse/hara-kiri Oh well, I still find it fun coming up with mildly amusing wrong answers. "A man falling down some stairs" was my favourite here.
