Is nt it something t do with sabotaging someone's bed ? I seem to remember second technitian Arnold Rimmer having it done to him at boarding school.

 

[BennyD]

It's not those bloody french again, is it?

 

[CatmanV2]

Yes, and yes although I'd like something a little more precise than Benny's generalised loathing of the entire nation

[Navcorr]

........ generalised loathing of the entire nation

Nothing wrong with loathing an entire nation - Aussies at Uni. & Edinburgh were/are a constant source of displeasure
Plus best mate from school emigrated there and almost overnight turned into a complete pr*t.

But the French deserve to be hated

I also forgot to mention the obvious exception - Kylieeeeeeeeeeee.

Hmm well

Leaving that aside, we seem to have not got as many QI watchers on here as I thought. Difficult to give a clue, so I'll give it to Benny as it derives from nappe pliée, folded sheet.

I hate to encourage him, though

A constant source of pleasure - especially those gold hot pants

We have not had a benny question for a while. This could go anywhere

 

[BennyD]

Ok guys, here's an easy one; who were the 4 original members of Dire Straits and what were their 1st 2 albums called?

 

[RSM Masser]

Can only think of one band member and it's probably wrong as too obvious
As for the Album, it would be wrong as well, because he is on it

 

[Navcorr]

The Knopfler brothers + 2 others. 1st = Dire Straits. 2nd = ?
Weirdly my older sister had a crush on Mark "spud face" Knopfler.
How weird.

 

[RSM Masser]

Second was Making Movies, plain red cover.

No it isn't - show again brain cell !!!!

Red and blue. Wasn't it Communique?

[Navcorr]

My memory bank is drawing a blank too. This was my Blondie phase after all. Hmmmm, Debbie Harry - now that was a crush!

 

[Caldy999]

The Geordie connection helps - definitely the Knopfler brothers, Mark and David. The other 2 founder members I can't remember, but a saxophonist joined them later on. I presume one of the albums would be the iconic Brothers in Arms???
