It's Molly. representing the UK in the Farce Of The Year Show - sorry I mean the Eurovision Song Contest.

I gave up on it years ago! I only knew the answer as I read Radio Times.

Someone else feel free to choose a question.

Do not know if I am right or wrong, but while this is still fresh in my mind, here is the tiebreak question from last nights quiz , where our table won a box of chocolates---between us !!!

How many stations on the London Tube ? Just guess, no checking in your diaries or anything. We were nearest, although in fact 20 out.
