Shale Searcher Posted December 24, 2015 Report Share Posted December 24, 2015 Did anyone else watch tonights Question Of Sport? Santa Clause is a loan of rider/s from Sweden/Denmark (where the weather is craps) to GB teams in the poor weather!! True/False Can't believe that was deemed to be true by (not Phil Tufnells team) Crazy!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemini Posted December 24, 2015 Report Share Posted December 24, 2015 Haven't seen it yet as it's recorded but strangely enough quite a few BBC programmes feature Speedway questions, in spite of their lack of interest. Question of Sport, The Weakest Link, Eggheads etc., so there must be a fan somewhere on the production line. Just the one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope promoters don't watch it, it might encourage them to try it!!!!!! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Ore Posted December 24, 2015 Report Share Posted December 24, 2015 Haven't seen it yet as it's recorded but strangely enough quite a few BBC programmes feature Speedway questions, in spite of their lack of interest. Question of Sport, The Weakest Link, Eggheads etc., so there must be a fan somewhere on the production line. Just the one. Definitely not for a Question of Sport (tbh I wouldn't wipe my bum on that rubbish ) but a friend of mine wrote questions for the other series mentioned above; plus, more recently, the Chase. The speedway based references are definitely his; other than on QoS. He has never seen live speedway in his life, mainly because there are no tracks that near where he lives, but from TV and You tube viewing thinks it is a brilliant sport and we often talk about it when we meet. He used to have an action photo of Franky Zorn in his office too. Name dropping here but ex Dr Who Colin Baker's daughter, who worked alongside him at the BBC, was totally in awe of the Zorn pic too and, like many on this forum never goes but also thinks it is a really sensational sport. Maybe her dad could go back to the 1960s to check if speedway was actually better then. For those interested in potential future TV based speedway questions I would recommend the new series of 15 to 1 with Sandi Toksvig as worthy of a look. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
van wolfswinkel Posted December 30, 2015 Report Share Posted December 30, 2015 Saw QOS, couldn't believe they went for it. Been a few speedway mentions on The Chase. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
