if you ever start to feel inferior or stupid, for gods sake
watch this show. in the simplest terms this highly
successful (in its time) gameshow involved a series of
questions which 100 people of the general public had been
asked previously and the idea was the contestants
compromising of 2 families had to guess the top answers

but of course a pre-requisite to become a contestant
(just to make sure nobody won the star prize every week) was
that you dropped out of school at 14, your parents were
related, but usually both

here are some of the stunningly inciteful answers that the
average gameshow contestant so desperate to grab his 15
minutes of fame by appearing on tv, managed to come up with.
i must stress these are all geniune.

Q: Name something a blind person might use
A: A Sword

Q: Name an occupation where you need a torch
A: A burglar

Q: Name a bird with a long neck
A: Naomi Campbell

Q: Name a dangerous race
A: The Arabs

Q: Name something red
A: A cardigan

Q: Name a number you have to memorise
A: 7

Q: Name something you put on walls
A: Roofs

Q: Name something in the garden that's green
A: A shed
