'That’s a good answer! Pity it’s wrong.'

Answers flood in for Barney's quiz question. Not all of them correct.

"The answer," says Jim Flood, a regular listener, "is it Burl Ives?"

"That's a good answer," Sean says. "Pity it's wrong!"

Barney Sloan's quiz question was: 'Who am I? I was born in 1934. I'm an American actor with 60 years on stage, screen, and TV. I starred in one of the most popular TV series from 1961 to 1966, and had three top twenty UK hits.'

Bing Crosby, Adam Faith, Andy Williams, Maggie Smith, and Shirley MacLaine are all among the incorrect answers.

With music from the Electric Light Orchestra, The Crystals, The Equals, and more.
