Somewhere in Italy was the highlight of the night
Back in the early 70s there was a hotshot from Wicklow who answered every question in the early rounds on Peter Murphyâs Cross Country Quiz. When he got to the final he was like a rabbit in the headlights and failed on every question
The occasion can get to people.
I won the Cross Country Quiz.,1987. We were shit hot.
In the presence of greatness.
The first or second year it wasnât televised.
Just as well. We were on âwhere in the worldâ with Theresa Lowe around 93 and I completely froze.
The Limerick Way
Have you never told us that before now?
Monkman lost focus . The teamâs management failed to manage the situation. The Sun needs to do an expose on where it all went wrong .
Not as often as the guy who scored all the points for his team in the county final does.
Whoâs this now?
Back now. University of Ulster on tonight
The winter starts here.
Stone also keeping up the loyalist theme for Edinburgh.
UUJ going for experience in their selection.
Jack doing well for Ulster.
No Monkman-esque quizer on display tonight.
Lovely bit of banter there as Milliken of UUJ, who is so bald he looks like a Loyalist terrorist, correctly answers âYul Brynnerâ.
A dramatic start to the series.
Ulster pipped at the post. Milliken correctly answers the starter for 10 to bring them back to 165-160 down, but the gong goes before they can answer any of the bonus questions.
Clear anti-Ulster bias from the timekeeper.
Conway from Cardiff wearing dickie-bow.
Expecting good quizzing from him based on that alone.
Cardiff trail 200 to minus 5.
If you wear a dickie bow to a quiz, you better deliver.
Conway and team didnât.
