Subject: Spot the board member - finished off

Written By: karen (Guest) on 09/11/03 at 07:17 a.m.

I've copied the idea for this quiz from some that were posted ages ago.

The idea is to work from my clues which board member I am talking about.  No offence meant by any of these clues.  I've tried to do a mix of newer and older members.

I've filled in the answer to the last one

1) Do they like slow music? adagio (FBVP)
2) Did Marcie Blane (and Tracey Ullman) want to go out with him? Bobby (Billy)
3) Is Madonna a Chelsea fan perhaps? Trueblue (Bobo)
4) Sounds like London's most notorious criminal is being talked about in Yorkshire Jack Tripper (Ethan)
5) Does this board member look like a lady? Dude (Ethan
6) He's just a regular guy from the slums Ghetto John (Billy)
7) Sounds like we have a talkative spanner posting here Gabble Ratchet (maddog)
8) The boards best-known Everly Brothers fan  ??? Marian (Indy Gent)
9) Religious singer of The Chosen Few? HolyDooley (maddog)
10) This member sounds like the master of foolish talk crossword type clue where the first part is another word for master and the second part of their name means foolish talk which gives you VirtuosoClaptrap
11) Can this person be found in an American Pie? meant Pippin (as in Cox's Orange) but of course that's not the board name they use
12) Is she or isn't he wearing some? Hairspray (Marian)
13) A member of the Mafia? Do the FBI know? Don Carlos (Ethan)
14) Is this person piscatorially betting? gamblefish (Bobo)
15) Sounds like trying to make your parent fall over Trips Mom (Tao)
16) A youngster? Junior (CF)
17) A horror film actor came from down under in the year of Englands greatest victory say some boris66au (Paul)
18 ) Be polite when talking to this cold soup? mrgazpacho (Tao)
19) Stone daughter of the Queen? Rock Princess (Tao)
20) An unknown singer with Peter and Mary? Paul UK (jaytee)

Hi karen

From your clue I'd say #7 must be gabble ratchet, the master of the amusing "Top Tips" style posts.

Oh, and #9 must be Holy Dooley, and thanks SO MUCH (not) for reminding me of those wholesome songs from the British 70s family band, The Dooleys...I can't get "A Rose has To Die" out of my head now....;)
