Dumb Britain


The latest Dumb Britain entries to Private Eye made me laugh, especially the answer about Angora.


DUMB BRITAIN


Tipping Point, ITV

Contestant: The brothers......Grimm? 


Pointless, BBC1 

Armstrong: Name a country beginning with A, B or a D.

Contestant: So it's got to start with a B, and A or  D, not all three?

Armstrong: How would that work?

Contestant: I don't know, some countries end in "bad", don't they? 

Richard Osman: No

Contestant: I'm going to go for Angora.

Osman: A lovely goat, and a lovely wool, but not a country.
