Still chortling at one contestant's answer - think it was on The Chase but will stand corrected.

Never heard of her but, as I only know of one Scottish poet (truly), i would have got the question correct.

They're only easy if you know the answer

[roopower]

I wouldn't know, haven't heard of her but could hazard an educated guess. At least they answered with the name of a poet.

[Gromit]

It was the Chase.
Some questions are hard if you don’t know the answer.
But that one was very easy to guess.
Contestants often panic, and this one did.

[jno]

easy if you're ignorant enough to know of only one Scottish poet and never to heard of Jean Armour. But suppose you were bright enough to have heard of Sir Walter Scott?

[Peter Pedant]

[lankeela]

Always worth a guess at the most obvious answer (or the only one you know).

[smurfchops]
