I think the question confused the contestants. It confused me for a bit, too, when it came to time zones. After working out the time zones I would say Port of Spain.

I performed Pirates in a youth chorus with an adult singer playing this character. He never managed to get through it without stumbling, except for the last performance we did, which we all had to stop ourselves from cheering along with the audience.

With a combined ages north of 500, you’d kind of expect this. Avoid anyone pre 1960 as the LP only really became a big thing then, some surprises, key answers I think would be people from late 60s to early 90’s who avoided the an album a year route. My guesses would be Meatloaf and Pink Floyd.

This song is famous for requiring a lot of words to be sung very quickly. And so very difficult to pull off. So yes I applaud any body who can successfully sing it. 👏👏 bravo However, having said that, I am not sure how to feel about the fact the fast paced lyrics are basically humble bragging about just how very smart the guy is, how much he knows about all the academic topics. Being smart and skilled is fine, but do you have to brag about it?

As a Dane I can confirm we were in raptures when Denmark was mentioned on this show, there were wild celebrations in the streets, bonfires were lit, shops were looted and people killed. We still remember it to this day as the most pointless celebration ever.

Where did he mention gender? Also, Gilbert and Sullivan were so political that the guy they wrote Sir Joseph (in HMS Pinafore) about tried to sue for it... It's not exactly like political satire was above them

@xapha so your problem is with the line "when I can shun both right and left and all their merry sloganing", unless for some reason you associate Terry Wogan with "gender politics" Can you tell me exactly what part of "when I can shun both right and left and all their merry sloganing" has to do with gender politics? It's not a modern sentiment, centrists have existed for a long time, and so have political slogans I'm sure. In fact, surely the line actually discourages political discussion because he shuns both right and left? Like I said, what does any of it have to do with gender? Sounds to me like you're just going round thinking everything is about gender, which surely you would complain about yourself?

This is one of those moments I found it embarrassing to be British. Are average Brits genuinely just as bad as the Americans when it comes to geography. First two that popped into my head were Montevideo and Paramaribo. I know they're right but it would have been nice to know if they were pointless.
I don't know how many parodies there are of this, but there needs to be one about someone who's a geek. (probably something along the lines if "I am the very model of a modern (???) individual!")
