What can be served but never eaten?

@lady_valor_07 1975

Based on the entirety of this photograph, what is your best estimation of the year it was taken?

@MbarkCherguia A swede

I’m currently having a blazing argument, please help me settle this once and for all. What is this???

@YesterdaysBrit1 But note that the After Eight clock showed 4 as IV rather than the conventional IIII (scandalous).

Yes, yes and yes!!!

@YesterdaysBrit1 I recall The Sun awarding it the accolade of being the best car in which to, er, have sex.

You know that you want to buy one.

@ElonMusk_LordX 2 - at no point has it been stated that any sons, sisters or babies were at the picnic.

@bbctms @BBCSport @BBCiPlayer @BBCOne @bbctms just wondering whether Mr Zaltzman can confirm whether the recent Lord’s test is the first where each selected India player was from a different state/club…? Best wishes to all - Phil Pennicott

20 years ago today the iconic 2005 Ashes began. This week across @BBCSport we’ll be marking the anniversary. “How to win the Ashes” @BBCiPlayer & @BBCOne 2310 tonight. And DON’T miss “Settling the Score” from Wednesday where we set the drama of 2005 to Music! #bbccricket

@jslovechild Kit Napier - later a successful goalscorer at Brighton & Hove Albion. He also featured in the title of an anthology of writing by Albion supporters.

It used to be the law for every lower division side to have one player with a raffishly affected first name.

@AllisonPearson @Madz_Grant My epitaph will be ‘one person’s pedantry is another’s precision’. To confuse foreigners it is possible to be interested and disinterested at the same time!

@Madz_Grant I have tried dying on that hill but the battle is LOST! Everyone thinks disinterested means not interested. Except you, me and maybe 3 pedants.

I've found the hill I will die on, and it's the difference between 'uninterested' and 'disinterested'. Both are valuable and meaningful words in their own right! With subtly different meanings! We need them to be used correctly!

@YesterdaysBrit1 I will never forget the closing words in the episode on Japan: ‘When the end came, it was to be from the sky: horrible, irresistible, mushroom shaped.’

Who remembers this excellent British TV documentary series, first broadcast in 1973, which ran for 26 episodes and was narrated by Laurence Olivier.

It's Manager A-Z time again It's Day 21, and it's a bit of an odd one today. So name any manager from any era beginning with or has the letter U in their name We'll start with Rinus Michels Over to you....

@80s90sfootball I saw Bobby Stokes score for Southampton in 1976.

It's FA Cup A-Z time again It's Day 19, so name anything related to the FA Cup beginning with the letter S We'll start with Lawrie Sanchez Over to you........
