Sorry, I can't make it as I will be watching the US Masters golf.

Here's a question to test the form for tonight's contestants.

Why was the live coverage of the World Snooker Final between Alex Higgins and Cliff Thorburn interrupted?

The Iranian Embassy was being stormed by the SAS, obviously too easy, so what was on BBC1 at the time of the interruption?

Scorrie what was the answer to the mini-quiz second question?

Icebox thank you for an excellent quiz. I know that you had some computer problems, but that didn't bother us. We had a great time. The sing song didn't work too well, but you were off when we tried that venture.

The really big winner was ACameron. Yes, non quizzers, you ask "Why, when he wins half the time, do we bother trying?" Well, the competition has become to best him. And one does learn things. Scotland has crown jewels! And they are kept at Edinburgh Castle! Today, Betty kindly dropped by to tell us that Scotland had defeated Canada in the World Curling Finals. Oh, well, life goes on. Stay tuned for a notice of next week's quiz time. AC will make a decision and post it for us.

I am going purely by memory here, it was definitely a John Wayne western, I am 90% sure it was War Wagon. As the snooker pictures cut to go to the newsroom, the western was shown for a few seconds before the newsreader appeared. Canadian Cliff Thorburn went on to win 18-16 and became the first overseas winner of the tournament.
