Pointless Celebrities funniest ever.

 

It is possible that the weekend title for the Pointless quiz show was not taken lightly in fact it, maybe, taken very lightly.

Last weekend’s Pointless Celebrity show was the funniest ever with answers coming along that had Steve and I shrieking with laughter.

Steve and I watch the weekday evening Pointless quite regularly and enjoy the questions and shout the answers at the TV in equal competition with each other. It is good to have something that makes you smile in theses mad times.

 

Getting back to the Celebrity version programme, some of the answers were quite an astonishing show of how poor their geography was, time and time again.

There was one clue that read something like; name a Danish city that hosts a huge music festival, beginning with the letter R.

Two of the celebrities gave first Rotterdam and then another gave Reykjavik as the home of a Danish Music Festival.

Shouldn’t laugh really because they are all doing the show to raise money for their favoured charity.

In fact, in the past there have been many totally brilliant celebrities on that show. This show was a real dilly though.

There was a picture round, when one of the guests named one of the photos shown as Justin Bieber, when in fact it was Bill Haley. We nearly died laughing.

I know we‘re wicked and of course, sitting in your armchair at home is very different to being on the TV set floodlit.

 

The other clip that I feel should be mentioned from Steve’s surfing through the channels for something watchable, was from an American news channel.

It was of Rudy Giuliani waiting to step up to the microphone.

First, in readiness he got what looked like a paper handkerchief out of his pocket and blew his nose vigorously.

Then he folded it, wet side out!

Then he wiped his mouth and carried on to wipe his forehead and the rest of his face. ARRRGGHH!

There were other people all around him.

My eyes nearly popped out of my head and simultaneously, my jaw dropped to look something like a gaping cavern.

Do these people not have advisers to tell them all the things that they should not do in public and especially not on national TV.

Horrifying.

 

Just to polish off this page with my diary notes for today…. that goes.

 

 One hour of Qigong to clear the continuing horror of the news out of my head and set me up in a cloud of calm before continuing with my work.

One hour of movement and core training with the New York City Ballet Workout on You Tube.

Warm up with gentle movement, floor barre and the basic ballet class.

Then not quite two hours on the turbo trainer upstairs, where we did some steady spinning whilst watching, The West Wing that has carried us painlessly through the plague season. I have made a note that next time, we will watch episode 3 of season 4.

 

After a bath we did some office work involving, emails, quotes and responses to queries before Steve went to work for a few hours in the afternoon.

I did some more sewing, and listened to a beginner’s Italian CD since we have a race in Italy next May and I don’t like not being able to communicate even a few niceties, even if it is just ‘Get by In’, level.
