Hmm. Presumably an older-ish one, so I'll go for the oldest. "Here In My Heart" by Al Martino?

Song 2 by Blur is only 2 minutes long, but I don't know if it ever got to No. 1

Ditto that song "Whatever", by Liam Lynch(?)

i have never heard of any of those three.
this is a famous song from the 60s

60's... okay, let's try one of the early Beatles ones. "She Loves You".

ANd I'll try Love Me Do.

(since checking, United States of Whatever was the shortest top 10 hit, so well done to me for that one - and him, I suppose).

not the beatles, was a solo artist who was born about 100 miles or so from liverpoo.

Gerry & the Pacemakers - "I Like It".

nope.

the running time is 1.51 if that stirs any memories.

If "100 miles from Liverpool" includes Wales, how about Tom Jones? Only one I can think of is "It's Not Unusual", and I'm not even sure that made it to number one!

Easy one then:

Which film series contains the line "I've got a bad feeling about this" in all of its films?

Alien ?

That is an easy one - Star Wars

Matt and I rejoice in fellow geekdom.

Star Wars it is.
