4th November 2008

With only a few weeks to go, who are going to win the title. Friends and Go With The Flow have been fighting at the top for the last month, but will University Challenge, Jay's Mob, Just Us or maybe The Golden Girls pip them for the title, it's going to the wire.
This week the Golden Girls took first place with 52 Points, runners up were Corner 5 with 51 Points, tying for third place that went to a tie break question where We Three and Go With the Flow, We Three won the tie break.
The Picture Pub Quiz was on Pop Groups and Solo Singers, only three teams managed to recognise all the faces, they were Friends, We Three and The Golden Girls.
The General Knowledge Quiz was won by Corner 5 with 43 Points followed by The Golden Girls, Just Us and Go With The Flow with 42 Points.
The Anagram was solved first by the Hopeless Beginners so they got the extra point, one question was disputed ( What do Dogs, Wolves, Foxes and Seals have in common?) Answer they all have Pups, it was argued that Wolves and Foxes have Cubs but when checked it was stated that when they are young they are called Pups.
