No.
The Lithgow Lions?
Sorry penny just dropped you're talking about the unfunny duo Roy & HG. They should take a good look at themselves rather than constantly drivelling about everyone elses short comings.
Lithgow?
Just beat me to it SilentC.....being a pom I translated league into soccer league rather than rugby league, I'm learning slowly....I've only been in Australia for 8 years!:)
Surely that's a matter of opinion.Quote:
...unfunny duo...
The Shamrocks?
Ahhh, that explains it.... :rolleyes:Quote:
being a pom
Absolutely and that is my humble one......happy to disagree on that one.
Not sure what you mean by Shamrocks?
I think Shamrocks is the name of the team Roy Slaven was captain of in Lithgow....
Roy & HG's sense of humour is not appreciated by many people outside Australia. Oddly enough, the yanks seemed to like them. They did a show in the UK which bombed - that doesn't surprise me at all, not really your lot's cup of tea...
The Lithgow Shamrocks it is.
Humour is subjective but I don't know how you can call Roy & HG unfunny
Over to you Darren
True, I reckon the yanks thought they liked it but in reality were completely unaware that they having the p@#s taken out of them. I think an English version would go down well in the UK, it's the parochialism that's hard for the English to swallow being very parochial themselves.
Wow that's a bit deep for a quiz forum......
OK, What is the worlds most popular first name?
Who wrote the children's cartoon 'The Ratties'?
You have to answer the question before you get to have a go HH :D
But I'll have a stab. It's probably not John. Is it Ahmed?
This is getting confusing. :confused:
Can we just have one question going at a time please.
Thanks for explaining.
Never heard of the Ratties, if it's anything to do with Wind In The Willows.... Kenneth Graham?
Ahmed? Close but not quite.
It would have to be Mohammed then.
The Ratties was a British cartoon for kids. It was written by someone's daughter. If you give me the someone it'll be good enough...
I'd need a hint to even have a stab
Her father (now passed away) was a famous British comedian - arguably one of the most famous worldwide. Although not noted for his singing voice, he sang the signature tune for his daughter's cartoon. Perhaps another of his closest colleagues, also now gone, will be more remembered for his singing voice.
Well that's a pretty good hint.
So it must be Peter Sellers (sp?)
I've heard Peter Sellers had quite a good singing voice. Very, very close though....
"I talk to the trees, that's why they put me away...."
Well it could only be Spike then
That's the one, or more precisely his daughter Laura.
They're the rat-rat-ratties,
The rat-rat-rat-rat-ratties.
There's one called Tatty,
And Auntie Hat-hat-hatty.
There's two called Fatty,
And Uncle Mat-mat-matty.
Frightening really. That I can remember it I mean :(
What is a snood ?
a type of headcovering?
A fishing knot.
Quite right SilentC it's Mohammed.
headcovering or a short piece of fishing line attaching ones hook....
Where is the river Lethe?
Letheland?
Al
Hell, I don't know where the heck it is.Quote:

That would be the Cray brothers. Ronnie and Reggie was it? Their mother's name is Mrs Cray ;)
Close enough silentC it's actually Kray with a K and thier Mums name was Violet.
HH.
Ahh, I was thinking of Robert Cray ;)
My Mum's name is Violet. My old man loves to insert an 'n' before the 't' when she's getting worked up. Doesn't tend to diffuse things much :rolleyes:
What was the first full length feature film produced in Australia (and probably first in the World)?
