Well that was short and sweet ☺️
Good luck @Irish Aris and @davetherave !!

[Leg End Reject]

Well, that went well.

[E.N.]

Unlucky @Wichita Lineman, good game

Have to admit, I thought I was playing it safer than I did, I was aiming for ~8th each time but forgot so many that mine ended up being good answers, I'm lucky they weren't too low though

[E.N.]

Barbie Girl is the fourth best selling single of the decade in the UK?! 😳

[Necro]

Amazed I got through with an incorrect. Feckin Teletubbies was 18th in the list I'm after checking 🤣🤣

Also Buile and EN appear to be savants at Pointless. 5 points from 4 questions!!!!

[Irish Aris]

Oooh, got very lucky with the Spice Girls.
And I thought Stay was a safe bet, since it was number 1 for so many weeks!!
Oh well, anyhoo, lived to die another day!!

Congrats to the qualifiers, and kudos to my group contestants for some great answers, especially a certain country!! 🙂 🇬🇷
