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?

Estonia! Who is Michel and his partner?

PastGrace · 25/02/2012 18:36

They're from from Masterchef, Lottie. He is a famous chef (Michel Roux junior, his father is Michel Roux Senior of the Roux brothers)

I saw Michel on Mastermind and he was quite thick on that too! I thought he would be more intelligent, but alas no, at least he can cook!

Ooooooh. Other people who love Pointless.

I'm rather pleased every time I come up with a pointless answer. Words beginning and ending with k (I punched the air after getting three pointless answers for this one), words ending with ush, state capitals and John Cusack films have been good to me recently. Great Escape actors and footbally type people not so much. It's filled in the gap left by Only Connect not being on atm.

I'm quietly seething because we're at the ILs' and not only have they watched two men's rugby matches already, they're also watching the women on the red button. I want to watch Richard and Alexander on Pointless Celebrity.

I am a Sad Git.
