Celebrity Pointless

I'd forgotten about I'm Mandy Fly Me until it was pointless. Loved 10CC!

I love Celebrity Pointless simply for the moments when AA describes them as Pointless Celebrities. Never a more accurate description in some cases

It was a good episode wasn't it, and certainly Murray was great and enjoying himself, very much respected by all kinds of people. I think the "Fly me to the moon" (one of my favourites) I thought that was what was said. It did seem a bit unfair to me, but it is all for charity, and fun so hopefully no one was too upset.

Great episode though! How does Murray do it at 90?

Wickie says it reached No3 in UK singles chart though I can't find what year.
Reminds me of that other song
It's a mystery

I think the question was 'name a tune which had been in the UK Top Forty with 'Fly' in the title.

I was on GN at the time so can't be sure (multi-tasking and procrastinating - how about that!)

Perhaps Fly me to the Moon was before the top 40 was invented?

Yes I read that Ana but it's been recorded by so many under the title Fly me...... that would be so petty but I can think of no other reason.

As a Sinatra fan for many years and remembering when he recorded it , perhaps because the title when it was written was - ' In Other Words 'no idea if this is the reason

Wikepedia says: "Fly Me to the Moon", originally titled "In Other Words".

I can only assume they were being sticklers about the name of the song having to be the original one.
