Dougie...program and programme is one of my weak points, but thanks for reminding me....again. Nesserssary is another !
The above questions are ludicrously easy, with the possible exception of number 6, although my dictionary gives millennia as the plural of millennium.

I realise that programmes such as this are not meant to be taken seriously, but there are other TV quizzes that manage to be both serious and entertaining, like "Eggheads"
As to your comments about Olly Murs, in the extreme unlikelihood of my appearing on "Tipping Point"
I might have guessed that he was a pop singer, or general so-called celebrity, by the fact that I was being asked a question with his name in it, on a TV programme such as this. My answer wouldn't have been that he was a Nobel Prize winner.
