Pointless

[Svejk]

Q. The only town in the UK with an exclamation mark in its name?
A. Tally Ho!

[Ratty2E]

Shouldn't that be Westward Ho!

[Baldric]

Shouldn't that ^^^ have a '?' after it?

[Svejk]

I take it you don't find it amusing, ratty?

[Old_Geezer]

Unsure why one should, unless this was supposed to be in 'Jokes' ?

The correct answer is Westward Ho!

[Sipowicz]

I'm guessing a contestant was asked the question and gave Tally Ho! as an answer.

I dont watch pointless as I truly can't get the gist of pointless. rather watch my chase - love Bradley - could marry him.

[Ratty2E]

i didn't realise it was supposed to be a joke and now I do I still don't get it, sorry.

[Svejk]

Yes, one of the contestants answered 'Tally Ho!'. I thought it was quite funny so I shared it with you. Obviously nobody else did. The reason it's in TV is because we often have threads about the silly answers on Pointless and everyone else puts them in TV. Hope that's all cleared up for you all now.

It has, thank you.

[ummmm]

I understood :-)

[Peter Pedant]

,I sympathise with you Schweik
think of the parable of the sower .....

[Old_Geezer]

Ah. I see.
Maybe one had to be there ;-)

[Marshwarble]

I always thought it was Bognor Regis?!#$

[chaptazbru2]

I thought it was funny !

[chaptazbru2]

jenny - you could marry Bradley, I could marry Alexander !

[Graham-W]

I know one shouldn't judge a person on their accent but..... both the young man who gave the answer "Tally-Ho!" sounded like he may have come from the "set" who did fox hunting, which made it doubly amusing to me.

I love the way Alexander Armstrong tries to restrain his desire to laugh at some answers on Pointless, not always successfully.
Our lunchtime programme is Perfection, simply saying True or False to statements, yesterday one statement was Saudi Arabia shares a border with China, and the contestant said true.

[chaptazbru2]

I really enjoy Perfection, one of my favourites.

Did not see it but notice lately how many contestants give answers with out thinking it through ,those answers should be edited out to save the contestants being belittled .Or does it get the shows talked about which is the reason they are broadcast .

[Tizzi24]

I think the worst answers are in The Million Pound Drop. Can't believe how thick some of the contestants are!
