Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch

or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

My dear old thing, I would be inclined towards football or music in 1985-1994 or some such nonsense. I have a narrow window of very good recall and a load of nonsensical knowledge (what is the French for shoulders and why do I know)

The Medway Valley? Or is that *far* too precise?
Pet Shop Boys between 1986 and 1996?
My dissertation was "The benefits and disadvantages of cross-border working in the European Sphere, with particular relation to the Tri-Rhena, and Saar-Lorraine-Luxembourg Rhin Euroregions", but I'm really not sure that would do for the telly.

DeeGee... But surely the cross-border question is something everyone's an expert on already, isn't it? ;-)

Well, they *do* keep telling me to "Do my own research" ;-)

One week a specialist subject was 'top 10 hit singles of the 1970s.' I got more right than the contestant. Something like that would be ideal for me.

I always enjoy it when I can match or do better than the contestants on their specialist subjects. I can usually beat them on general knowledge (but obviously I’m not under studio conditions which I’m sure makes a hell of a difference).

Joy Division for me.

Stumbled across a YouTube with a contender on this very subject, matched his score and reckon I could have answered quicker and maybe got another question or two in.
