Round 2: The Riddles V Tyrax

Please read the following Round 2 instructions carefully;

Each
member of teams can answer as many times as they want, though after
three strikes (wrong answers) the team turn will be over.

With
this alternative, the matches will be open for one day only. When
marking, if three wrong answers are come across, then Elfie will cease
reading the rest of the answers and hand the last answer chance (as
above) over to the opposing team. If they get 1 answer right (with
their chosen 1 person) then they steal all of the points gained. If not, the
playing team will keep the points gained.

The steel works as follows;

To
steal, the opposing group must confer with one another and elect 1
member to give their answer. They can only have 1 guess at the
remaining answers (no matter how many are still left). If they obtain 1
remaining answer, then they steal all the housepoints uncovered. If
not, the
playing team will keep the points they uncovered.

The
Gamble can still come into play if the oposing team wishes to choose
this option rather than guess the remaining answer. The gamble works as
follows;

Opposing team can either do as said above, or gamble
and take the remaining questions points only without having to guess.
The playing team will still keep their uncovered points in this decider.

This thread is for The Riddles V Tyrax

Riddles - You are the playing team 1st.

Your question is as follows;

Name the top 5
answers given for a famous television presenter in England




You will have one day to answer, remembering how this works (see above)
When the one day closes, Elfie will put up the correct list and play will pass over to Tyrax
who can choose to steel or gamble. You will have only a short time for
your 1 player to post. Once this has happened, Elfie will then give
XD=aholics their question (same play time as above) with Tic Tacs then
choosing to steel or gamble before the match ends and scores are
updated.
