None correct so far. It was a former world champion though.

Not Dennis he wasn't on the top 16 so didn't play in it.

Haha!

Parrott twice in a row <ok>

Reminds me of the old joke:

Two parrots on a perch.
One says to the other: 'Can you smell fish?'

Other than Parrott, I can think of two current or former pros whose family names begin with P and end in t.
Can you name either of them? (or indeed another I haven't thought of)

Juddernaut88 special Bottle of Coke bonus if you can name both.

Haha I certainly need to try and get this as a bottle of coke is on the cards, I have a soar throat currently though :( I can think of one player Andrew Pagett but I need to have a good think about the other.

Re: Never Ending Quiz

Postby chengdufan

Pagett is one. The other is not British.

Snooker Ed snatches the coke.

I'm not sure what Juddernaut88's question will be, but my answer is Parrott

Re: Never Ending Quiz

It was level between me and Ed but he can set the next question <ok>

Can you name the three players to have won the Benson & Hedges Masters and the Benson & Hedges Irish Masters in the same season? (bonus points if you can get the years)
