Basically Richard meant location. The Soviet Union emcompassed many modern nations, and Armenia's location was just under the far reaching border of the Soviet Union at the time as Georgia, which borders Armenia was once part of the union.
@@Boom12But that conflicts with the claim they were Soviet. And I suspect they were in fact Soviet as they're right next to Azerbaijan which I know were Soviet as Garry Kasparov was born in Baku
How come 10/100 British know inventor of ice rink resurfacer? I'm from a country where ice hockey is national sport and I'd have to ask 10000 people to find one who knows
You are saying that you would have to ask 10000 Canadians, before they got the very obvious answer correct? I could ask 100 Michiganders, and at least 50 would get it correct.
Frank Ocean And The Mothers were at the best place around. Also, he's what, in his mid 30s? Did she not see that the person in question had released 50 albums? So she figured Frank Ocean has released three albums a year every year for his entire adult life?
Also Frank Ocean is famous for not releasing albums, I think he last released an album in 2016 and has been on extended holidays ever since 😂 idk why she went for that when she knew Frank Gehry
The 3rd round 3rd question 'crapshoot' questions really are awful. And actually spoil the show if anything. I know why they do it. It doesn't make it any better.
Thank you for indicating East Timor is an incorrect answer - not only does it not fulfil the criteria, the country is Timor Leste. It was only called East Timor when it was under the mandate of the UN from late 1999 to 20 May 2002, when its independence was restored. But it’s correct pronunciation is Leste by sounding the E (which is the tetun pronunciation and how the majority of Timorese pronounce it) or Leste as Lesht (which is the Portuguese pronunciation, but acceptable as Portuguese is an official language with tetun).
"I'm gonna take a risk... Albania"
for the first round i had a few ideas:
* trinidad & tobago
* equatorial guniea
* mozambique
* seychelles
very fun round! loved this one
I always take North Macedonia when I can, because it seems like no person in England know it exists, it's always pointless.
Eritrea
took me way too well to think of it but Equatorial Guinea... and Papua New Guinea come to think of it
I had Georgia and hate when I pick an answer they don't give me the number for.
I'm guessing this one didn't feature on the list but the Federated States of Micronesia would've been my answer, and an acceptable one at that
I was thinking St. Kitts and Nevis.
36:58 the jackpot is ridiculously small!!! Is UK about to go bankrupt??? 😂🤣
UK game shows are always like that because of strict anti-gambling laws

'Armenia was one of the old Soviet Republics, and used to be just under where the Soviet Union used to be'?
Yeah that didnt really make sense

The way she said Eriteria was the right way it is pronounced in their home country
15:48 Got the last pointless answer!!! 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
(My 2nd answer scored 3 points, I think)
28:09 Got both pointless answers!!!
That vocal involvment as the number gets closer to zero is PAINFUL.
The team that makes it to the final should stay on for the next show
My guess Tajikistan was pointless, yay 🤩
I had St. Kitts and Nevis and North Macedonia.
Uruguay!
Ayyy I got North Macedonia!!!

People know the name of the device and assume it's named after the inventor

It’s because Bart drove one once on The Simpsons.

New Zealanders will be very upset with Frank Ifield being listed as an Australian.

Unusual answer: a little bit of cucumber?!? I thought it was country. Marie Osmond will not be happy about this
