With a normal quiz, it all happens too quickly. By the time you've thought of the answer and given it, the contestant has invariably already given their answer and they've moved on.
"I expect you've heard of Pointless, the quiz show on BBC," said Bunter. "I'm going to be watching it on the television with some of my pals from Greyfriars." The fat Owl was always prepared to talk about himself; only a listener was required.
"Oh, yes," said Gosling, the school porter, "I've heard of Pointless, of course. So you're going to try to guess some of the answers, then? Fine questions they be, I've heard. Do you get many right, sir?"
"Oh, yes, all the time. Always more than the other chaps."
"Hope you'll get a few pointless answers this evening, sir."
Billy Bunter nodded sagely, and chewed toffee.
