I bow to your greater knowledge sir. I had three but either way you score 1 point.

Old Ford Lock!!!

In Bow. If that's a borough...

*edit*

(Q.26)

Sounds like a load of Bow Locks to me. Incidentally, the lock is so named because, it being east London, there has always been a stolen Old Ford dumped in the lock.

Whatever, still wrong, Bow is not a borough. Minus 1 point I'm afraid.

New questions and I'm going to leave you with these>>>>

Different rules: Each question is worth 2 points if correct but if you get any wrong you will lose one point. To make it interesting and open to more people I wil not make comment until there are a few replies. Only the first to answer correctly will get the points but all incorrect answers will incur the penalty.

Q25/. Answered.

Q26/. In which London borough was the ''Big Breakfast'' house situated?

Q27/. Answered

Just that one left available at the moment.

It was in Bow, but the borough is Tower Hamlets

But Marc, did you look that up?

Quite sadly, I knew it without doing so.

Oh yeah. I knew it was in Bow but had no clue else. West London Me.

:)

Whereas I knew it was Tower Hamlets, but not Bow. :D

-and another point for Mr P.

Tower Hamlets just makes me think of racists.

Next stuff at 7.30pm tonight. Not sure how much though.

I need to make up my minus one point!

Can we have a question on David Tennant please? ;)

So one corner of the borough once, maybe twice, elected a BNP councillor. I don't think we can really judge a place on the ignorant actions of the couple of thousand uneducated idiots who voted that way.

Does seem to be a bit of tension in the borough though - a bit separatist in parts. Certainly have heard some racist attitudes there but, again, only ignorance from all directions.

Interesting that the local Council has an overwhelmingly white workforce and yet the majority of the population is asian. A case of 'say one thing, do another'.

It looks messy, I don't like it, it's against the site's rules and terms of use, and is a good way to getting yourself an official warning and eventual account suspension/banning. If you're happy with that risk, then by all means carry on. :)

Just to clarify something cos I think I might be being dumb here: The use of the smiley emoticon means that was a joke right?

The first and only time I ever heard of Tower Hamlets was when they made the news aaages ago for electing a BNP member as their MP.

(I'm not suggesting that everyone in Tower Hamlets is a racist, of course, just that that is what comes into my mind whenever I see the place.)
