When you think about it, there are actually quite a few names where you can add a letter to get a country. In addition to Cameron, Nige and Dominic: (G)Reece Shearsmith - actor/writer Miley Cy(P)rus - singer Franc(E) Ross - actor Per(U) Frandsen - footballer Juan Ma(L)ta - footballer Tony Ben(I)n - politician Joseph (U)K. - character in 'The Trial' (M)Ali Carter - snooker player (O)Man Friday - character in 'Robinson Crusoe' Glen Chin(A) - actor A Fish Called (R)Wanda - character in film of same name Georgi(A) Zhukov - Marshal of the Soviet Union in WW2 (G)Hana Mandlikova - tennis player (K)Enya - musician Bruno Martins Indi(A) - footballer Ira(N/Q) Gershwin - musician German(Y) Burgos - footballer / football manager Honorable mentions: Dan Marino is SO CLOSE to having both names form a country, if only you could replace rather than insert a letter. Annoying. Gabo(N) was the nickname for author Gabriel Garcia Marquez. Probably a bit tenuous. T-(S)Pain? Feels like a stretch.
I feel there is mileage in that tactic. Come prepared with a couple of really obscure actors or footballers, one for the category and one for the name another. Then sit back and wait for the cash to come in.
@@MalcolmPowder yeah that would be nice for a 'time on the ball but a little cheeky' style of play, very continental. It would get wrecked in a high press though, depends on how much energy the others had.
I don't want to step on anyone's monkey, but I've had my doubts about Watson's play this set.... all put to rest after this absolute classic though. Possibly the best single sequence of play in the history of the game. Stunning. Absolutely gutted for Key's early exit.... As Horne struggled to Name Another I wondered if there even was another name to be caught out by that category - having one come up immidiately from nowhere was like being attacked by a red T-Rex. Nonetheless, set up the two way duel for the ages, so a worthy sacrifice. Another great set, when you think about it. Got faith in Key to level it up in the 3rd.
Exactly, half way through thinking ‘Don’t mess this up’ , they mess up. Like Fulham routinely missing penalties. It’s the hope that kills you. And not being aware of Dominica.
When Horne said his country one and struggled so much to name another I thought "there's no way this is ever going to be a relevant category". And then very next turn, bam! Dominica. Top stuff.
Having the time limit definitely makes the game more interesting as a competition, but I would say I also preferred the games without the time limit for the casual chat in between names and the more casual feel makes it more entertaining. I think add in the time limit for set point matches or any matches with significance. At the very least, keep in some casual games.
Although, before that, when Key wanted to take his go before Horne, he tried to say Jack(adj.) Dee. I'm pretty sure, when you think about it, that Tim wasn't really paying full and absolute attention, over.
I think Horne was preoccupied with figuring out if Key was in fact scared by the jumper, cost him precious thinking moments in the later part of the game.
The first category is clearly "No more people who do what Ingrid Christiansen does" and not "No more long distance runners" as the pop up shows. This changes the whole game. I bet she does all sorts of stuff.
When you think about it, despite definitely not remembering it being surname, it was surname. If Watto has been writing all the categories down then he would have known this.
It’ll be a crime if Mr Key, the Frank Worthington of NMJs, is not made Sports Personality of the Year this year. He has oodles of it compared to other sportspeople like Rashford, Hamilton and Fury. While we are in lockdown you can amuse your family by repeatedly saying ‘but it won’t suit me’ when they ask you to put the kettle on. I’ve been doing this since March 23, and it never fails raise everyone in the house’s spirits.
This could be controversial - surname was mentioned. 3:34 "No more people who when you think about it, are only one letter away from a country - just gotta chuck one in there" 4:27 "You just add a letter to their existing surname"
The individual responsible for the error has been identified by the NMJ Executive Board and duly reprimanded with 100 successful attempts of Get the Bottle Top from Your Forehead to Your Mouth Without Using Your Hands.
when you think about it, Key should be requesting external adjudication for Set 3 at this point. he's let Watto and especially Horne screw him on too many decisions, it's throwing the whole sport into disrepute.
Love playing this game at home as well. But it only works when players watch these games on RUclips in order to keep up with the gradual subjective interpretations. Which I love as well.
Suggestion: give each player a total thinking time for all their turns, maybe about 10 minutes each, like a chess clock? Quick thinking in early rounds saves time for later rounds at the risk of an early rushed mistake.
Interesting you should say this. In the early incarnation of the game (called No More Women, two player game, filmed as RUclips content to accompany the BBC4 show We Need Answers, sadly no longer on line) a chess clock was used, and made for a shorter, more tense game! I think I prefer these longer games, although maybe there's room for both.
I enjoyed the sticking to the time limit, but I think you need to name someone by the end of the time limit and then can take more time over the choice of category
It says Game 8 and 17 September 2020 at the start, contradicting the title. And according to the rulebook, that renders the whole game invalid. It must be replayed.
Japp Stam would probably prefer being spelled Jaap Stam. Other than that, no notes. I could have a go at Key for going with a Dominic straight after the countries category, but I think he's just playing a shrewd game here. He's setting up a very elaborate trap, lulling Horne and Watto into a false sense of superiority. Then, when he's two sets down against both of them and 5 games behind, he'll pounce, and they'll be so bamboozled by his sudden burst of form that he can just ride that wave all the way to victory like a latter-day Steffi Graf. I mean, he'd better, or my longshot bet is not going to pay off. Go on Tim! Go on!
@@Tiptop9278 It doesn't change the order of the letters you just have to read them out in a different order. If you see Jaapn, there's no one out there that's not going to read it "Japan".
Can't believe that nobody here has spotted that "tony" (was it three uses!) is an adjective. As in "She lives in a tony part of town" etc! (PS: Loving this show)
I am upset at the lack of interest in Horne's amazing jumper. It should be lauded! It is unfortunate that Horne's shenanigans at 4:27 and his mistake 4:51 of "Name Another" incorrectly have taken so much attention away from what I'm sure would have been a very lively discussion of such an amazing jumper.
Found NMJ a week ago and I've binged the first two sets. A lot to like and quibble over, but I was only tempted to log in because the ***three consecutive*** missed challenges. Tony Fun-to-say, Tony Tiger and Tony Blair all have an adjective as the first name.
4:36 Name another - can't believe Alex didn't think of Enya -> Kenya
I was screaming Enya
Came to comment this too. Maybe he was playing mind games and was hoping one of them would try to steal Enya later.
Watto def should have challenged Tony the Tiger. Can't think of a name more fun to say.

Huge
When you think about it...
Watson also did the challenge, when it was Horne that pointed out Dominica might be a country. That challenge should have been voided.
@@epsleon It's also not the name of the country, the official name is Commonwealth of Dominica
@@urmumsbaps Every country is officially called something else. It's ridiculous to protest it on those grounds.
When you think about it, there are actually quite a few names where you can add a letter to get a country. In addition to Cameron, Nige and Dominic:
(G)Reece Shearsmith - actor/writer
Miley Cy(P)rus - singer
Franc(E) Ross - actor
Per(U) Frandsen - footballer
Juan Ma(L)ta - footballer
Tony Ben(I)n - politician
Joseph (U)K. - character in 'The Trial'
(M)Ali Carter - snooker player
(O)Man Friday - character in 'Robinson Crusoe'
Glen Chin(A) - actor
A Fish Called (R)Wanda - character in film of same name
Georgi(A) Zhukov - Marshal of the Soviet Union in WW2
(G)Hana Mandlikova - tennis player
(K)Enya - musician
Bruno Martins Indi(A) - footballer
Ira(N/Q) Gershwin - musician
German(Y) Burgos - footballer / football manager
Honorable mentions:
Dan Marino is SO CLOSE to having both names form a country, if only you could replace rather than insert a letter. Annoying.
Gabo(N) was the nickname for author Gabriel Garcia Marquez. Probably a bit tenuous.
T-(S)Pain? Feels like a stretch.
Please continue to self-isolate.
Solid gold legend
I don't mind it.
Masterly! I love (U)K.
Wow
Incredible quick wit from Key at 11:15. Horne misspeaks slightly, and Key immediately includes it in his response.
Twice as well
I missed it. Can you set-tell me what happened?
Penelope Pitstop ❌
Enya ❌
Left-handers ❌
In Game Relocation ❌
Gabriella Pinocchio ✔️
Enya went out the minute the country name category popped up.
Watto calling a dinosaur a “naughty beastie” is everything
I think Horne’s right, it is ‘Polly, put the kettle on’ as in ‘Elizabeth, tailor’
Wouldn't that be more 'Elizabeth, boil'.
@@Stantheman848 More like "Susan, boyle"
@@russellskene8039 - more like "Susan, fetchthebiscuits"
I don't recall being set told that.
"lose a game, learn a country"
..and under no circumstances reference the jumper.
Love that Key managed to find a country immediately after Horne struggled to name another. Great work
Highlight of the set for me...😂
Masterful use of 'name another' from Horne, with the long distance runner shenanigans. Nice try by Key, though.
I feel there is mileage in that tactic. Come prepared with a couple of really obscure actors or footballers, one for the category and one for the name another. Then sit back and wait for the cash to come in.
@@MalcolmPowder yeah that would be nice for a 'time on the ball but a little cheeky' style of play, very continental. It would get wrecked in a high press though, depends on how much energy the others had.
Should have gone for Grete Waitz for name another.
The heated discussion on whether or not Polly put the kettle on is why this is the best thing on RUclips.
I don't want to step on anyone's monkey, but I've had my doubts about Watson's play this set.... all put to rest after this absolute classic though. Possibly the best single sequence of play in the history of the game. Stunning.

Another great set, when you think about it. Got faith in Key to level it up in the 3rd.
Have you ever thought about going pro with No More Jockeys punditry? This is some fantastic analysis.
Watching Key try to wriggle out of his easily avoidable mistakes is a fantastic start to the weekend.
Key! It's like following an underdog team that only scores own goals.
The weird thing is when they played No more women, key was the top dog
Exactly, half way through thinking ‘Don’t mess this up’ , they mess up. Like Fulham routinely missing penalties. It’s the hope that kills you. And not being aware of Dominica.
When Horne said his country one and struggled so much to name another I thought "there's no way this is ever going to be a relevant category". And then very next turn, bam! Dominica. Top stuff.
Sensational play from Key to find a name 1 letter away from a country so quickly.
This episode really was one for the connoisseurs.
That classic old saying that everyone always says "You lose a game. You learn a country."
Name another.
It really was sur(i)name only!!
Lovely stuff
You win, sir.
My 'No More Job Gloves' mug arrived yesterday. Already caused some discussion during working from home Zoom meetings. Over

Could you name another one?

In Elvis haircut, Elvis would be an attributive noun.
Indeed. Much like Wellington Boots, or Bunsen burner.

4:27 - Key was robbed. Category was surname. Over.
Official complaint. This could change the history or at least the history of this set.
I totally missed that. Although Horne did go on to give a second example that wasn't a surname and nobody questioned it.
I'm going off this sneaky "Horne" fellow, too many of these inconsistencies. I couldn't name another, but too many.
Yet another example of why this game badly needs VAR.
Although, before that, when Key wanted to take his go before Horne, he tried to say Jack(adj.) Dee. I'm pretty sure, when you think about it, that Tim wasn't really paying full and absolute attention, over.
I think Horne was preoccupied with figuring out if Key was in fact scared by the jumper, cost him precious thinking moments in the later part of the game.
Am I the only person upset that Key had no reaction to Alex's jumper?
Probably not as upset as Alex. He’s probably gone and burnt it in protest of Tim not acknowledging it
I thought that Key talking about his own jumper was in reference to it. But yeah, I was expecting a direct acknowledgement straight away on joining.
4:28 Horne says add a letter to the SURNAME - I think theres a reprieve for Key.
I sure hope we see a 'Rocky'-esque training montage of Tim Key working to put up a good fight in Set 3. Mainly for his sake.
The fact this comes out on a Friday night just after dinner in Australia makes my week :)
It's a classic Aussie post dinner Friday night parlour game.
Shocking for Watson to be given a reprieve for the timeout and it not even be counted as a reprieve in the final table.
Watson is definitely behind the others in reprieves, so I don't mind it at all.
The first category is clearly "No more people who do what Ingrid Christiansen does" and not "No more long distance runners" as the pop up shows. This changes the whole game. I bet she does all sorts of stuff.
Unbelievable that they didn't pull out Enya when they were looking for another person to add a letter to to get a country.
The highlight of my week is when these videos drop.
what?
When you think about it, despite definitely not remembering it being surname, it was surname. If Watto has been writing all the categories down then he would have known this.
Big if
Massive if.
Crikey that's a whopping big if, there.
Rupert Everett has written several books, all available for purchase on Amazon. When you think of him.
It''s also quite fun to say his name IMHO
4:29 ‘you just add a letter to their existing surname’
That were absolutely diabolical, Horne you bottleless gyet
This is some of the most effectively entertaining content I have witnessed.
It’ll be a crime if Mr Key, the Frank Worthington of NMJs, is not made Sports Personality of the Year this year. He has oodles of it compared to other sportspeople like Rashford, Hamilton and Fury.

What a pace! What a game!
When you think about it, if Polly hadn't put the kettle on, then Sookie couldn't take it off again. QED. I rest my case. Over.
Big if
She only put it on cause the singer told her too
Oh my God, Tim's self-destruction is getting worse 😂😂 I'm weak😂
Key is fantastic “ you loose a game you learn a country”
lose*
Loosing is what one does with arrows from a bow.
Oh Tim, I was really cheering for you. At least you’ve learned a new country
Nice to get a name check in this round. Happy with that.
this was just some top-notch gameplay all round
LOVE the look of the merch..but i'm gonna hold out for the "when you think about it" Tee
Key really is the comedy element now, while the two straight men get on with playing the game
I think the fact that this was played late at night is what did them all in, to some extent. Over.
This could be controversial - surname was mentioned.
3:34 "No more people who when you think about it, are only one letter away from a country - just gotta chuck one in there"
4:27 "You just add a letter to their existing surname"
Luckily, Dominic Solanke also ran afoul of a category Mark had already introduced as well.
@@jess228 Which one?
I will be contacting the court of arbitration for sport.
Key always fumbles when he tries to get fancy 😂
An absolute shambles. Surname-gate will hang over this Set 2 result for a long time. Horne and Watto need to take long hard look at themselves.
At least there could have been some clemency shown, so early on in the game.
The times Key has let Horne off due to his poor excuse; I didn't understand the category and he stabs him in the back... again. Shameful.
No more initials in the first half went out the window but made for a great spectacle, chapeau Watto!
An absolute tour de no more jockeys force, really feel Mark should of walked on the time limit, would of been the honorable move. Great stuff
it was just surnames!! justice for key!
Thought Horne would have challenged Noel Edmonds as having a book on Amazon
Rupert Everett too!

Horne playing dangerously close to, my favourite holiday destination, Sudanne.
Have I missed the origin of Key shouting at the others to keep their hands off their heads? Seems to have been happening for a few weeks now.
There's been quite a bit of commenting on Mark's constant preening and scratching his head etc, I guess it comes from that.
The one time Key playing the Pitstop card would have made for a longer game
when you think about it, Key should be requesting external adjudication for Set 3 at this point. he's let Watto and especially Horne screw him on too many decisions, it's throwing the whole sport into disrepute.

The irony is, you can add a single letter to surname and get Suriname.

watching the way key gets done here... absolute fucking outrage. john bishop wouldn't pull stunts like that.
When I think about it, I've been to Dominica. Lovely country, it has one of the largest boiling lakes in the world.

What does tony mean as an adjective?
Saw this comment on a video before, change the order for the next set, Horne to start
Key got done so dirty here. Horne definitely said surname. Brutal.
Surely Tony the Tiger is fun to say?!
Agreed. I kinda wish Horne would stay away from the subjective categories, since no one tends to challenge with them anyway.
Neither of them remembered the Pauline Quirk category… that game could have ended numerous times earlier 😂
I feel like Tony could've been called out as an adjective.
Came here to say that
I would have challenged on that, for sure!
RUclips name is game 10, 1st October, title screen is game 8, 17th September
How was the name another fun name to say not Edward Woodward. Clearly hugely fun to say!
I've had a while to think about this, and surely Polly has already put the kettle on otherwise what is the point in asking Suki to take it off again?
Hearing Alex say Jaap Stam was a bit like worlds colliding for me since he's the head coach for my local club, FC Cincinnati lol.
Justice for Key. Needs to be appealed.
During the discussion Horne did say **surname**. This is a mess already.
But Horne also had him on the adjective rule.
@@jess228 He challenged on the country category, though.

Attention Watto, Horne and Key. Click here and listen: 4:26
For once Key was actually robbed, and this whole set feels a bit tainted.
It may be chiefly American, but "tony" is an adjective that dates back to the 19th century. Surely it's crossed the pond by now?
