I'm horridly addicted to Pointless. I have it on series link and watch it at night whenever DH is away. I desperately want to be on the show, I even applied. Am I a sad git?

What I want to know is, when you're in the semi-final bit, with just two teams left, have can you not hear each other conferring about the possible answers? Soem people seem to whisper very loudly.

p.s. I got Bermuda and the Isle of Man!!

nothing for Belize. Now see these are the times that it would be so handy for them to post up ALL the answers on a website!

WhispersOfWickedness · 23/02/2012 19:11

Yes, that has annoyed me many times!

Line - possibly they think you should be too busy conferring yourself and not eavesdropping Grin

I missed the last bit, what was the question and did they win?

It was animated films nominated for best animation oscar. We DH said curse of the wererabbit so we would be £1250 better off. So so lifechanging Grin

Knew all the pictures later on though [redeeming]
