Well wasn't that fun? Two entrants this time, Al (as ever) and the lovely "Lolly" who I assume is a lady. Sadly, JPG didn't take part this time and I have a feeling that if he did he would have done better than those who did. But no matter, let's see how our entrants did. Their task was to identify the personality by looking only at their lovely kissable lips and perhaps by using the clues I deftly inserted......
Who is Barra Best, Lolly? 3:0 to Al.
Zero points for both contestants. Who is William McAuley, Al?
Ah, the doyenne of BBC NI for as long as I can remember and she still looks a treat. But....Lolly refused to be drawn and Al volunteered a desperate "Rose Marie" as an answer for which he should be penalised. But he won't. It's still 4:1 for Al.
Will wonders never cease? 6:3 to Al.
1. Presidential
Oh dear. Both said "Mary McAleese". But no harm to poor Mary, she does not have lips as lovely as wee Dana's. Nul points!
2. Flights of fancy
I seem to remember that Julian does some work in an airport or something, hence the "flights" clue. Lolly decided it was too cryptic for her and Al answered merely with "a man", a poor attempt which he repeated often much to my chagrin. So it's still a draw.
3. Soapy
I won't explain what the clue means because I am a gentleman, but Al certainly understood that it was a reference to "big girl" Rose Marie. Well done Al, you are in the lead because Lolly boycotted this one as well.
4. Miserable shite who likes pies
Both of you got no points for this one. I thought the clue was a dead give-away.
5. The greatest living Ulsterman
The greatest living Ulsterman, who else but Pat Jennings? Thank God neither of you said Peter Robinson and congratulations to Al who now leads 2:0
6. Weather
7. Lives in England
RIP Frank. This was the only clue I thought I could give without giving the answer away. But perhaps it was still too obvious because BOTH got the right answer. 4:1 to Al.
8. Should live on the moon
9. A very foxy lady
10. Z
Jesus Al, "a man" isn't much of an answer. Much better to have said nothing like Lolly. The clue said it all - it's Mr. Ellis from the Z Cars!!!!!!!!!! Duh!
11. Not gay
Same situation as above I'm afraid. I wonder if either of you deserve to win.
12. Oul bollocks
Whoop dee doo. Both of you got this right. 5:2 to Al
13. His brother also likes a poke (allegedly)
14. From the banks of the Bann
I had heard once that Gloria was from Portadown, hence the clue. It didn't help either of you though.
15. Looks to the east
Yes it is a man, Al. And no, you don't get any points for that answer. Lolly, well done for keeping quiet rather than giving a silly answer - you get a point for that. 6:4 to Al.
16. Overshadowed by his more talented son
Commiserations, Lolly you didn't give an answer for this one. Al answered it correctly but Lolly's getting the points. 6:5 to Al.
17. Has a criminal record
Again Lolly did the wise thing by saying nothing whereas Al answered with "a man or a woman" which immediately results in Lolly getting a point. It's all even at 6:6
18. Most often seen around six
"Seen around six" - killer clue, eh? Sadly Lolly must have been too busy concentrating on Bella Magazine to notice. Al meanwhile got it right which means he's back in the lead again with 7:6
19. Intellectual
OK so the clue put you both off which is why neither of you got this one right.
20. I'll have a decaf latte macchiato, a blueberry muffin and a blow job, please.
And in a moment of excitement both of you got this one right which means that Al wins it by a whisker 8 points to Lolly's 7. Well done both of you and thanks for taking part. Al, your prize (below) will be dispatched forthwith. I hope you put it to good use.
