Crushers Crushed – New Champs Are Hippies

The Eco Ecos

The Reverie breathed a sigh of relief last night as The Mind Crushers’ fortnight of terror ended with a fourth-placed finish.

The new champs are The Eco Ecos, so named because they all study Ecology Economics which is making money out of “sustainable” situations. Green Capitalists? Aye right.

Anyway, the Eco Ecos nearly won a wholly unsustainable £40 but Orla was poor on the old Top Trumps and so it was up to CHALLENGE MASTER Bengt from A New Hope to come up and simply WIN the Top Trumps challenge.

Begnt is from Sweden, that’s why he is a better person than all of us, and he proves it  week after week by swatting aside any challenge I can create for him.

However, the Swede’s super-powers temporarily deserted him when it came to naming Britain’s favourite biscuit (as per a recent survey).

Would you have known this for £40?

Question: According to a recent survey – what is Britain’s favourite biscuit?

A. Rich Tea

B. Custard Cream

C. Bourbon

D. Jammy Dodger

As someone pointed out afterwards, favourite is not necessarily the same as top-selling. So be careful how you answer.

In any case, Bengt got it wrong so we are playing for SIXTY POUNDS next week.

See you then

Dr Paul
