Just for fun - Christmas Songs Mouse of Games - E.N. - 25-12-2021

Hey gang, just for fun...

After Aaron's House of Games I thought about doing a Christmas version but never got anywhere with it. I half wrote one round, so I'll throw it up for fun

I'll let Aaron explain the concept...

In this round, I have changed one letter in the names of four TV shows, and created a description of that new programme based on its new name. I will post that new description, and it is your job to determine what the name of the new show is
 

Two sample questions:
 
Sample Q1: Combat machines are treated in hospital for their injuries
Sample A1: Robot Ward
 
Sample Q2: Ryan Tubridy hosts an after-dark talk how in which people try to find love
Sample A2: The Late Date Show

But these are Christmas songs initially. So every answer is a Christmas song with one letter changed.

  1. Chimes on tinder

  2. A story about the Big Apple's razor shortage

  3. Something for a mini Ringo Starr to play with

  4. E(minem)17

  5. Father Christmas will visit the eastmost of the six counties

  6. The season passes so quickly, it's just wham! and it's over

  7. Tony The Tiger takes Hugh Jackman's role as PT Barnum

  8. Watch the boxing on mute

  9. Going on a holiday in a really old car, or sausage?

  10. Edgerton or Matip? Edgerton or Matip? Edgerton, definitely!

No PMs, no scoring, just for fun!
I'll stick the answers up tomorrow sometime and you can declare your score then, if you like

Merry Christmas!

Think I have half of them... Will need to think more on others

RE: Just for fun - Christmas Songs Mouse of Games - ari101 - 25-12-2021

Oooh I have 1 pac these are hard, only one I'm sure of at first read! Big Grin

Happy Christmas EN!

RE: Just for fun - Christmas Songs Mouse of Games - nothing - 25-12-2021

Yes! Have them all I think! Thanks @E.N.

Same... 7 took me the longest, although I did come up with a funny answer if we were playing a different game

I have two equally valid answers for one of them as well

7 took me ages too!

RE: Just for fun - Christmas Songs Mouse of Games - ari101 - 25-12-2021

Ok I have four, and three I think I know the songs but not what I need to change pac

It would probably be easier if I hadn't drank as much wine Wink

RE: Just for fun - Christmas Songs Mouse of Games - ari101 - 26-12-2021

I don't think 7 was that bad once I sat down and thought about. I have some ideas for 4 and 9 but have not fully figured them out, but 10...  Huh

Google the two in 10 and you'll get it

RE: Just for fun - Christmas Songs Mouse of Games - ari101 - 26-12-2021

Well I got 7 without google anyway so I suppose I can give in Wink

RE: Just for fun - Christmas Songs Mouse of Games - cee_jay - 26-12-2021

No. 9 took me way too long to figure out. Only got it now!

RE: Just for fun - Christmas Songs Mouse of Games - ari101 - 26-12-2021

Googled 10, it is easy once you know Big Grin Have worked out 9, that just leaves 4... I have an idea but I can't make it work hmmm.... Must give it more thought.

RE: Just for fun - Christmas Songs Mouse of Games - Butty Brennan - 26-12-2021

Some very clever and humorous riddles but I haven't a clue on 1,3,7 and 10.

RE: Just for fun - Christmas Songs Mouse of Games - Leg End Reject - 26-12-2021

I'm stumped with 5 and 9. I know the word 9 is looking for but can't think of the song.

RE: Just for fun - Christmas Songs Mouse of Games - Leg End Reject - 26-12-2021

Actually I don't know the song in 4 either!

RE: Just for fun - Christmas Songs Mouse of Games - Butty Brennan - 26-12-2021

I've just got #3 Big Grin  I think Confused

RE: Just for fun - Christmas Songs Mouse of Games - nothing - 26-12-2021

9 is tricky cos the letter change also changes the pronunciation

RE: Just for fun - Christmas Songs Mouse of Games - Leg End Reject - 26-12-2021

Figured out 4 and 9! Big Grin

Just need 5 now for a full house.

I got #7.
1 and 10 still have me stumped.

RE: Just for fun - Christmas Songs Mouse of Games - ari101 - 26-12-2021

I have an answer for 4 but I'm not sure it is right, it feels a little... Disjointed? Just have to wait and see what EN says! Big Grin

RE: Just for fun - Christmas Songs Mouse of Games - Leg End Reject - 26-12-2021

Just figured out 5! I misread the question as the 6 most eastern counties in Ireland!

Hope you enjoyed them Tongue

Wooooo! Thanks @E.N.

RE: Just for fun - Christmas Songs Mouse of Games - ari101 - 26-12-2021

Well I had four despite my doubts, but my letter of choice for 6 wasn't quite the right one Big Grin Thanks EN I had some good fun figuring these out Smile

RE: Just for fun - Christmas Songs Mouse of Games - aaronjennings - 26-12-2021

I'll give myself 9.5/10 - I missed out the first word in Q10


An alternative answer for Q1 I though could also be:

RE: Just for fun - Christmas Songs Mouse of Games - ari101 - 26-12-2021

I think I can only claim 8.5... I googled the names in 10 and I had the letter wrong in 6 Big Grin

I like both your suggestions aaron pac

RE: Just for fun - Christmas Songs Mouse of Games - Leg End Reject - 26-12-2021

Opps, I just got Stan because I thought the East17 song was just called Stay.

Good fun though and clever questions, thanks Nitters! Big Grin

Same! 

Also struggled with grrrrreatest snowman! Til the frosties connection hit me

RE: Just for fun - Christmas Songs Mouse of Games - E.N. - 26-12-2021

Ha ha, very good alternatives @aaronjennings Big Grin

RE: Just for fun - Christmas Songs Mouse of Games - Butty Brennan - 26-12-2021

I got 8 right. 1 and 10 were too much for me. All I could think of for 10 was Taron, Elton John, Rocketman, Kingsman. A dead end.
I still don't understand the answer for #10, could someone explain it in spoiler mode?

Google the two surnames, you'll get it then.
