The Ford Capri Laser Page

Anybody watch Tipping Point today?
One of the questions had a reference to our beloved Capri!
The question was something like "What model of Ford car introduced in 1969 shares it's name with an Italian island?".... Drat, I've given the answer away!
With the recent mention on Eastenders, it would appear that the Capri is getting a lot of prime time TV airtime in it's 50th anniversary year.

Andrew I was just watching Tipping Point too but fell asleep to find The Chase was on. Missed this question. I am not much of a Fordoholic am I ?

Anyway what a silly question and piss easy...it has to be Sardinia

Used to watch it alot but didn't see it today. One day last week they had a question about Lemmy Things are looking up.

So a Eastenders fan and Tipping point next your be watching the The Voice .......

Saying that my kids were watching a re run of the Cube and the bloke said he wanted to buy the professional ford Capri

Anyway back to my knitting programme they are doing a nice bed cover today .

I watch a lot of quality TV!
Tipping Point and The Chase make a great double header of teatime TV quizzing.

I didn't see the Capri reference on The Cube though. Was that on ITV2 or something?

Andrew.

Don’t know the kids had it on one of the freeview channels , think it was a old one .
I can do the egg heads but only answered a few questions on there

Yes I saw it too. The girl didn't know the answer, but passed it to another lady who did get it. Host Ben did say it's a shame you can't get them anymore.

We are used to Capri questions on the Chase, first time I've heard one on Tipping Point.

The Capri had another brief mention on Tipping Point today.
It was an incorrect answer supplied by a contestant. The question was something about a Ford car introduced in 1962 that shares it's name with an Italian ski resort.
Even if the contestant displayed a shocking lack of knowledge about our beloved Capris, it's still nice for the cars to get a mention on prime time TV.

I think you should go on the show Andrew

Another mention for the Ford Capri on Tipping Point today! Did anybody else shout the answer out at the TV?

No, it was ESCORT. Which was alright but Knave was the best.
