Pokermonster, you're definitely on the right track:

Very good Sparky!
|
|
By:
I can see his face in my mind, Tom. Sort of like a Father Ted type bloke.
|
|
By:
So Sparky DOES get the coconut!
|
|
By:
The name Mick keeps coming to mind, but I reckon I'm thinking of Mick Price, who was Ronnie's opponent when he made that quick 147.
|
|
By:
Was he Irish, Tom?
|
|
By:
All I remembered was that it wasn't someone who immediately came to mind - that's why I went for Leighton Reese and then Dave Whitcombe.
|
|
By:
I really don't know, PM - but the way you've described it (about the sort of Irish shirt) seems to ring a bell.
|
|
By:
- but I'm no darts expert at all -and would never know the name of anyone not popular in the 80s and 90s.
I just used to watch it when it was on terrestrial tv. |

By:
I guess I've seen the clip a few times over the years when they run those montages during the breaks. I can see his face in my mind quite clearly, but cannot recall his name. I might have never known it in fairness.
|
|
By:
If he was a well known player I think I would have got it straight away.
|
|
By:
Was it Mick Potato?
|
|
By:
But of course, Sparky!!!
|
|
By:
Yes! Yes, it was. Thank God for that, CL. It would have kept me awake if you hadn't got it.
|

Hahahaha!!

If ever, for any reason, I need another forum name, it will be easily guessable.

Very good, you bounder!

Q. Which tube station is the only one which doesn't contain any of the letters found in mackerel?
|
|
By:
borough tommy
|
|
By:
Er, not the answer I have in mind Colly - although I may have asked the question incorrectly. I only heard it yesterday and so it might not be a mackerel at all!
|
|
By:
Should it be Halibut Tommy, or portuguese man o war?
|
|
By:
I've just seen there is a tube station called Borough - which I had no idea about. Blame The Daily Politics for asking a duff Q!
|
|
By:
Fishy will know...
|
|
By:
..or nothing to do with marine creatures at all?
|
|
By:
Hahahaha! No, I'm almost sure it was a mackerel, Colly, so the BBC bods got it wrong!
|
|
By:
Very good Jimmy!
|
|
By:
I'm going to bleedin' check on the iplayer and make sure they said what I thought they said!
|
|
By:
I'll try and think of another one then.
|
|
By:
Right, the evidence is there at 51:55 "Which is the onlytube station not to contain any of the letters found in mackerel"
http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b01pyj3r/Daily_Politics_10_01_2013/ Whoever the BBC bloke was, he said it was St John's Wood - so Colly wins, even though he didn't say that! Can't trust the BBC for anything any more! |

Hoxton?

By:
Hoxton is on the overhead line so I'm wrong there, just checked it.

That question mark may have cost me Colly.
