Blimey - I always avoid things like that on FB....I'm afraid it might be a scam  Well done you - just ask those little things you've always wanted to know......you'll be fine  |

Reminds me of the saying 'be careful what you wish for' Andy  Half an hour can seem like forever, better get making a list. He's married with kids (think they are older than yours though) but you have things in common other than their music. Whether he will want to talk about his private life is another matter though  Good luck, hope we get to read your 'write-up'  x Tig |

It looks genuine enough FA and presumably you did actually enter in the first place. i221.photobucket.com/albums/dd161/GWDAdmin1/Smilies/Default/wink.gif You obviously know a great deal about the band already so why not draw up a list of questions based around that? Even if you already know the answers you might be able to draw a bit more information out of him. Something that no-one else knows about maybe? Good luck with it anyhow. When is the interview set for? |

I appear to have won a competition on Facebook, the prize being a ½-hour phone chat with my all time musical hero Andy McCluskey of OMD. I have to write the "interview" up afterwards and it'll be published in the tour programme for their forthcoming tour !!!!!!!!!!! I've always wanted to meet him so the chance to talk to him for half an hour is amazing. The only problem is.........I haven't a clue what I'm going to ask him !!!!!  FA x Well done on getting the chance to talk to your musical hero Andy be well prepared for the chat half an hour can seeem a long time on the phone. Talk about his music he will have a lot to say about that and find out what hes up to now. |

Get some inspiration from these two...
Or some of these from Shooting Stars...
True or False: Bill Cosby was the world's first black man? (False; it was actually Sidney Poitier)
Macaulay Culkin is a child, but can you name an adult? (This was not as easy as it seemed, as the only acceptable answer was Tom Petty)
True or False: Cupboard doors open outwards. (This proved to be true as Vic asked the question from "the perspective of a trapped cat")
True or False: A Bounty bar is the exact same size and weight as a human thumb? (The answer was true, as demonstrated by Vic)
Helmut, Braun, Tankard, Rifle...? (The correct answer was Parsnip, Belltoupe, Carnival, Nectarine)
True or False: William Shatner's real name is Bill Schitz? (false)
True or False: Paul Daniels' head is wider than it is tall. (This was proven to be true by measuring a composite sketch)
True or False: Inside every cat there is trapped a rabbit, and when a cat says "miaow", it is actually the rabbit saying "get me out"? (false)
True or False: Jeremy irons? (sic) (false; but there is not a given answer.)
Who's a cheeky boy then? (Sid Owen simply answers 'Me.' Robbie Williams gave the same answer to 'Who's a pretty boy then?' and was also marked right.)
Who would win in a fight between a Steel Octo-Bear and some sort of strange man fungus?
Name a type of bee that produces milk. (The correct answer was 'boobies')
A dog has three puppies, but what was the name of the mother? (This trick question recurred in many formats – the name of the mother is 'What' (see Who's On First?). These sections usually end with a bemused Vic asking Bob, "heh heh...well...what was it?")
True or False: Snakes are used as belts by some Hindus.
True or False: Shoes from Dundee can be moved by the power of the mind. (Proven true using guest Clare Grogan's shoe)
Name a junction on the M6. (The guest star almost always got the answer wrong).
True or False: In Judo there is a move where in which the recipient of the blow reaches instant orgasm, leaving them wide open to attack.
True or False: Can Michael Barrymore swim?
How old is Joan Collins? (Russell Grant failed to get the correct answer, leading Mortimer to say "His powers are weak!")
"Love me for a reason and let that reason be..." (It was answered "love", as the correct title of the Osmonds song. However, Bob replies "No, my 27 and a half inch penis")
The Lady in Red is about; A) Chris de Burgh's recently murdered wife B) Chris de Burgh's recently un-murdered wife C) A granary loaf, or D) A & E (meaning Accident and Emergency) (Correct answer was B) Chris De Burgh's recently un-murdered wife)
Who is the latest game show host to say "Come on down, The Price Is Right"? (It was answered with Bruce Forsyth, but Vic Reeves replied with "No. It was me... just now.". In reality, Forsyth never actually said the catchphrase in the show, though he was the latest host) Name a sheep dog.
True or False: Pavarotti has two stomachs; one for food and one for drink?
True or False: Jeremy Clarkson? (to which Ulrika replies by moving her hands in a circular motion, which Bob finds correct)
True or False: Daddies tomato ketchup is better than Heinz? (This was proved to be true via a taste-test) True or False?
True or False: Alan Sugar is a diabetic
What car sold over 250,000 units last month? (Ulrika replied "The Audi" but the question was "What Car? sold over 250,000 last month.")
True or False: Niagara Falls is turned off at night?
True or False: Joan Collins entices young men into her home using a trail of Werther's Originals? (It was false. She uses chloroform and an anonymous looking van.).
Name a turn off? (Ulrika answered Junction 12. This was correct.)
True or False: If you combine the body of a meerkat and the head of a horse, you get a life-size replica of Sarah Jessica Parker? (true)
True or False: Lynn Faulds Wood?
How many hours are there in a day? (Jack Dee answered 24, but Reeves and Mortimer produced a clock and counted the twelve hours around the outside.)
