Need something to keep me busy on a Friday afternoon, so acted on the Cardinal's suggestion...

Easy if you are of the era: What was the name of the Principle in US Kids TV classic, 'Saved by The Bell'?

Richard Belding (dot know if thats how you spell it)

Clearly too easy. Over to Darcle...

Just in case you wanted the actors name rather than the characters name, in which case I'll guess at Dennis Haskins (I'm sad...)

Edit: D'oh! Customer came in and interrupted my post.

ok, well this one is for sweet lovers.

What year was the M first printed on M&Ms?

Christ. Goodness knows.

1985

Way out there Cardinal sir.

Maybe this question is harde than i thought?

Lets reverse it and see if I'm nearer: 1958?

getting closer....

It's certainly hard if you don't know the answer.

However, I'm assuming that you don't expect us to recall all the major dates / years in the confectionary calendar, so is there maybe a signifance to the letter M?

Hmm... what major events have happened which begin with M & M? I'm going to go for 1978, to celebrate the launch of the sitcom "Mork and Mindy".

Well M&Ms were first introduced as a snack for GI's during World War 2 therefore it is anytime after 1939.

Cardinal it isnt 1978.

Right. Maybe they printed the M on to celebrate the end of the war.

So I'll go for 1945

Definately getting closer

I'll go for 1950 then!

Woohoo... the Cardinal gets it.

Over to you then
