Round 5:
Back to plain and normal sheep now.........
1) A place in the UK without a mainline railway station?
2) A position in Rugby Union?
3) A chocolate bar?
4) A Scottish footballer?
5) A comedy film?
6) An island in the Mediterranean Sea?
7) A place that is known for being a good football away day?
8) A team that has no supporters on 1FF?
9) A brand of car?
10) A music festival (not Glastonbury)?

Deadline is Sunday 5pm

 

[Habbinalan]

Congrats #Steady commiserations #MSB92 (although the Cup won't last long and I'd have had a chance of another round in the Plate, based on RKP's attendance). I'm slowly getting the hang of Sheep but my only reason for a vague awareness of GoTs is irritating adverts and an addiction to Big Bang Theory.

 

[Murphy]

Shouldn't I be in the CL last 16? Or am I going mad?

 

[blademan89]

Hes put magic down twice your 1 of them

 

[Cardsfan]

Yeah sorry, put Magic twice. You're up against Lee

 

[Don Tonberry]

So basically I failed to win that last round simply because most of you morons were thinking of the wrong Oscars and got the answers "wrong" instead?

I hope you all hang.

 

[markpvfc]

Only messed up badly on the GoT question and lost my cup match by a single point, so near yet so far again.

 

[Aaron-Bcfc]

Well played Hurrikeen, smashed me there

1) A place in the UK without a mainline railway station?

I have absolutely no idea how I would even find this information out! What the hell constitutes a mainline?!

No mate.

The following people were nominated for Best Actress at the 2014 Oscars:

Cate Blanchett - Blue Jasmine
Amy Adams - American Hustle
Sandra Bullock - Gravity
Judi Dench - Philomena
Meryl Streep - August Osage County

Cate Blanchett won, so the four possible answers were Amy Adams, Sandra Bullock, Judi Dench and Merryl Streep.

Cotillard lost out to Julianne Moore in 2015.

Yeah, without giving it away I couldn't find that so just went with something I didnt think would have it...probably wrong though & an ace

It was phrased "An Actress who was nominated, but didn't win, in the Best Actress Oscars for 2014" not "Best Actress at the 2014 Oscars". The 2015 Oscars are for 2014. The ones you've listed were at the 2014 Oscars but the nominations were for 2013. The awards for 2015 haven't happened yet (which should be obvious considering we're only half-way through 2015). So I'd argue you're wrong and Don is right.

Not that it matters. Sheep is open to interpretation and there are no wrong answers (unless stated otherwise).

Hmmm a controversial question. I blame cards.

 

[Don Tonberry]

Yeah, it's all Cardsfan's fault!

No need to submit a set Posh Hammer

Not confident at all. I expect to finish bottom.

Don't worry mate, I am back so I will firmly re-claim my position at the foot of the leaderboard

 

[Posh Hammer]

That round was horrendous by the way. Definitely getting an ace on the train station, team with no fans on TFF, med island and music festival.

 

[Spirederman]

Just done mine. I found that tough as well.

 

[Magic]

Most open round in ageeeees.

 

[Cardsfan]

Most I've had for a round this season which is excellent, especially as I had 9 before I sent round the reminders

Anyway, Question 1, these were the kind of places I was looking for............

And these were the kind of places I got...............
