I know this, i'ma huuuuuuuuuuuge New Order fan. Their name is taken from the video for crystal. There's a fake band playing in the video, and the bass drum has the killers written on it. As Brandon & co. are all big NO fans too, they used the name and it stuck!

\\\\\\nice to see another NO fan- I was watching the videos at the weekend and noticed the drum in the crystal which prompted me to look it up.

Ok here's one for ya.

In which Sci-Fi TV series were Paul Metcalfe and Conrad Turner the two protagonists, playing a cat & mouse game with each other in every episode?

Does your avatar ever give this one away.

I remember Paul Metcalfe being Captain Scarlett's real name, so does that mean that the other is Captain Black?

Ha ha thought somebody might twig that. Over to you.

Okay, revealing my current reading material to you all, which fictional character is the Junior Ganymede Club's most famous member? Bonus points if you know his first name as well.

Istenem · Post by **Istenem** » Wed Feb 28, 2007 2:59 pm

purely because few people know his first name, i'll guess lemuel gulliver.
