Twenty quizzes! Almost ten months of them, wow. I think it's safe to say you've all covered yourselves in glory (as they say on the show :p). Keep it up!

*Introductory theme tune*

Rules of the quiz:
- One answer per person (per round)
- Always give the answer you think the fewest amount of people would know
- If two people give the same answer in a short space of time, the first person's answer will be accepted (but the second can answer again)
- When applicable, a player may pick the same subject as another contestant and provide a different answer if they believe the other to be incorrect
- If you play the first round, please check back in case you make it through to Round #2
- Resist cheating (i.e. searching online for answers)

And of course, respect your fellow contestants and have fun!

Round #1 will be posted shortly and will remain open until Monday (or, when applicable, until each answer is taken) to give everyone a chance of replying.

ROUND #1 RESULTS

Congratulations, you managed to find all four pointless answers! There are four of you leaving us this round. Those four are...

Jeff: X 100 (KIMURA)
Sarah: 37 (GALIA)
Jen: 14 (OGEN)
Kaleb: 7 (WINTER)


James: 2 (SANTA CLAUS)
Bruna: 1 (CHARENTAIS)
Carl: 0 POINTLESS!! (CANARY)
Lisa: 0 POINTLESS!! (HORNED)
Lucy: 0 POINTLESS!! (NUTMEG)
Sierra: 0 POINTLESS!! (CASERA)

Commiserations to Jeff, Sarah, Jen and Kaleb - well done to the rest of you. Jeff, KIMURA isn't actually a type of melon; it's the name of the Japanese farmer who invented the heart-shaped melon.

There's your "interesting", Sierra - you went for what you felt was a less risky answer, but both were pointless.

I was also considering canary, so I would have been set whichever way.

I was sure that Nutmeg was one of the fake ones. Nutmeg is a spice!

I know, and I was surprised so many said yours. Clearly I know nothing about melons, I only recognised a couple.

Yeah, I completely guessed. The name sounded... melon-like. At least I didn't pick a wrong one.

Remember how I said my favourite wasn't on the list? Well, it is, it's Santa Claus but I know it by a different name.

True, Sarah. The other incorrect answers were TAMARA (Tamara Mellon co-founded the fashion house Jimmy Choo), GIBSON (Mel Gibson is an anagram of big melons), and CRAVIN (Cravin' Melon is a Rock band).

Nice memory, Carl.

Do you know it as Christmas Melon? I wondered that when you said it, but I couldn't mention anything because that would have given away that it's real.

ROUND #2

Your category for Round #2 is...

WORDS

And the question concerns...

WORDS ENDING IN '...RIGHT'

We're looking for any word that has its own entry in the Oxford Dictionary of English that ends "right". As always, no trademarks; no proper nouns; no hyphenated words – and I won't accept the word "right" itself.

You know when you stare at a word for so long it doesn't even look like a real word anymore.. I actually had to check if I'd spelt the word right right
