Hooray! SWP anal retention comes useful.
OK next Q.
Idents are filler bits on TV. The BBC use dance videos (like the wheelchair basketball guys and the Haka rugby players)
Question is how many different dance idents do the BBC have?

Meditating tai chi people

Balroom dancing
dancing in the rain

Very impressive Matt.
The ballet in ruins one is very rare.
You have got all the normal ones but there are 3 specials which have been stopped now. So what were they?

I know one of the specials had Peter Kay as Brian Potter with the wheelchair basketballers.
The other two though, can't remember at the moment...

The Peter Kay thing counts as a spoof apparently but sod it.
The specials were for Christmas and had kids on space hoppers and stuff.

Sorry about the wait chaps, thanks for the PM nudge tka!
Here's the question....
A long while ago, Wallsall were playing a league match. A goal kick was taken, which amazingly ended up 150 miles away in York!
Answers please!

okay:
which actress has influenced the nation's new mothers' choice of girls names with both the 53rd and 94th most popular names last year?
n.b. the 94th place is a misspelling of the actress's name
