I got the “add water” one with just that first Mogwai clue. 5 points. I can die happy. EDIT: Oh my God I got the Romeo and Juliet one by the first clue as well. Finally, I’m getting something after so many episodes of just staring dumbly at the screen.

It's a ball game played on a table, where you hit a white ball, the cue, with the intention of pocketing reds (worth 1 point) followed by a colour until all the reds are gone and then you pot the colours in sequence. Yellow is worth 2, green 3, brown 4, blue 5, pink 6, black seven. If you pot read black consistently you get the 147 'perfect break' score, i.e. the highest score attainable

The deaths of Romeo and Juliet occur in a sequence of compounding stages: first, Juliet drinks a potion that makes her appear dead. Thinking her dead, Romeo then drinks a poison that actually kills him. Seeing him dead, Juliet stabs herself through the heart with a dagger. Sorry for being pedantic.

And as Stephen himself has said that he gets to the studio hours before QI is recorded and goes through the questions and answers. kzitem.info/news/bejne/kXhn0Z2Ls52Up6Q

Stephen Fry has told stories as though he was present, when they are in books I read decades before. I would bet he had read them, too. One was the QI story about a Cockney saying, I'm not antiseptic (anti Yank), but... He quoted it pretty well word for word, but said he had been talking to a cheeky chappie. It is a bit disappointing, because he has actually had huge opportunities to meet so many history makers, but now I am a bit cynical of everything he claims. He may know the facts, but his claims to have hobnobbed and chatted with history makers, observed quirks amongst interesting characters... and really, it seems so oddly insecure. If it was just once... but it is repeated. But now, I am permanently dubious.
