Cool. Then I'll repost my out-of-turn one from earlier.
1) I’ve been asked if I’d like a Jelly Baby by the Fourth Doctor (Tom Baker).
2) I’ve been SPELLCASTING: D-I-S-M-I-S-S-ed by Knightmare’s Treguard (Hugo Myatt).
3) I’ve been One Year Out on Radio 2’s Popmaster (Ken Bruce).
You’ve never been on Popmaster. I know the other two to be true.
I did wonder how long people's memories were.
Correct, your turn PP.
1. I invented the dark chocolate Tunnock teacake
2. At university, I tried my hand at doing stand up comedy in a proper comedy club. I wasn’t very good.
3. I once body checked an aged Jimmy Saville and knocked him to the floor. I just growled at him and walked on.
I don't understand #2 in cougars post?
It’s a nerd thing. I totally got it
Knightmare was a kids TV show from the early 90s. Dungeons and Dragons style. Google it. It’s got Cougar written all over it.

Knightmare was a cult D&D style kids' TV show in the 80s. If you've never seen it, the reference will make no sense to you. The host of the show handled magic by shouting "SPELLCASTING" and then spelling out whatever magic word they'd found in the game. When the team lost, as they almost always did, they were booted out with the spell "DISMISS" and the next team would be magicked in.
I saw the guy who played the DM years later at a con, and they did a Q&A afterwards. I jumped to the mic and asked him to DISMISS me from the room. Which he did, with trademark scenery-chewing overacting. It was ace.
@perchypanther I’m going for number 1
Edit - Internet high five for knocking Saville over even if it isn’t true.
Edit 2 - Knightmare was ace.
I’m going for number 1
Wrong. That is totally true
I’m still living in hope that you body checked Saville.
Is that a guess?
Ahh ok, we never had a tv - not through any lentil hugging objections but where we lived there was no signal
#3 is the lie, you’ve mentioned the attempt at comedy before
Fraid not. I’m too much of a shitebag to stand in front of a room full of people and risk a brasser. That was the lie
Funkmasterp will be thrilled though
Consider me thrilled 😁
Do the rules mean you now get another go?
Nah, I’m done. You can have my go if you like.
Wrong. That is totally true
In quid pro quo fashion, I was pretty sure that was true. You've mentioned it before.
