January 17, 20233 yr Does Ken Bruce own the rights to Pop Master or will this remain as a radio 2 institution??
January 17, 20233 yr Would've thought it will remain on R2. Won't be the same without Ken though. It's always shite when someone else sits in for him. 😥 Edit: Just read that he's taking it with him to his new show on Greatest Hits Radio. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-64305756 Edited January 17, 20233 yr by Cheese
January 17, 20233 yr Just now, Spider said: I’m sure it doesn’t take a massive leap for his replacement to do a pop quiz. You're clearly not a Pop Master aficionado.

January 17, 20233 yr Some days I know most of the answers and score 30 plus and other days its 3. I've also 3 in 10 a few times.
January 17, 20233 yr My sister recently managed 39. She had kids growing up in the 90s/00s, my knowledge stalls after the 80s.

January 17, 20233 yr Today I got 9 and 15, which is pretty average for me. Yesterday I got 24 and 0. Madness.

Yet someone keeping a spreadsheet of scores to see who, out of 20 odd blokes on a football forum, worked out where the tits are behind a numbered grid everyday for 6 months or so is considered acceptable behaviour. (I don't disagree by the way) I love this place sometimes 😁 Edited January 17, 20233 yr by boogs Bloody auto correct
