What will take the coveted top spot? Will it be the Killer Clown's fast food? Or Jesus' last s...

You love a quiz, I love a quiz, we all bloody love a quiz and just as an extra bonus Gaz didn't get leathered on black Russians and start abusing the host.

In the future, Beans will host and Gaz and Andy will take on guest opponents and we'll actually bother to keep the score. The concept? Well we've basically ri...
