After a stressful day working (honestly

) we tend to watch Pointless whilst having tea. Here's a small excerpt from last Thursday, summarised:
Alexander Armstrong: "We're looking for the names of Premier League managers for the season 2015/2016"
Contestant: "I don't know anything about football so I'm going to have to make up a name. I'll say 'Robin Smith' "
AA: "I'm afraid that's an incorrect answer and scores 100 points. Richard ..."
Richard Osman: "Yes, nobody of that name has ever managed in the Premier League. I do believe a Robin Smith has managed Leeds United, though. But then, so has just about everybody else!"
