Did anyone see the thicko journalists on University Challenge tonight? They are clueless aren't they. They thing they know everything! Even I knew that that Beethoven tune was written in 1799 and the last one was in 1808. My god. They were 5 years out on the first one and (wait for it) over 10 on the latter one.

When are the Pilot team of professionals on. Wouldn't it be great to see the pilots smash the thicko journos on UC!!!!

If you are the current standard of 'Professional pilot' then a word of advice - don't go anywhere near UC.

The question about Beethoven was to the Politicians

You're quite right - I was wrong.

See I can't be a typical pilot - I can admit when I was wrong

Spectacular thread creep!

Getting the subject of journalists and pilots on University Challenge within a thread that started with Boeing 757 gear problems must deserve some kind of award........
ETOPS is online now
