years ago my Mrs was on a English language for none English speakers course and they were asked to name something you would put in a salad--an old Chinese guy put "SNAKE" -------of course he could very well be correct but just in case when your having a Chinese tonite best check under that lettuce !
On Millionaire many moons ago, £200 question 'The Archbishop of Canterbury is known as the ? ....? of all England .. Girl took 50/50, the choice was .. Primate or Marsupial .. 'no' she said, 'a primate's a fish , the Archbishop is a marsupial' ..... hahahahaahha lmfao
A mate from work is superb at quizzes. He knows everything. He's been on tv a few times and says the pressure just gets to you. On one tv quiz they had a warm up, just to get everyone relaxed before they began filming. First question: what is the name given to the day after Christmas? Buzz - EASTER!!
As Uboat says, it's all down to pressure most of the times. Not even on TV, but a few weeks ago, the missus & I went for dinner at a mates house (Blackheathaddick) and we were playing a board game that has some pretty easy questions, but you only have 5 seconds to answer.
My question was: Name 3 former England managers. Now, I could name them all in order, but the first name to come out my gob?...................."Alan Sugar" ffs...........
Michael Miles: (John Cleese) And could we have the next contender, please? (a pepperpot walks out onto the set towards Michael Miles) Ha ha ha... Good evening, madam, and your name is?

(He strkes her on head with an enormous mallet and she falls unconscious. A sexily dressed hostess in the background strikes a small gong. The three bishops rush in and jump on her.)
