Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 22nd March 2026.

22nd March, 2026.

It’s officially official: it’s Sunday morning.

And, frankly?

I’ve just turned off the radio.

Radio Four airs a Sunday service on Sundays,

And, while a suitably high Anglican service can be nice … the choir can be a bit — how do I put this? — shrieky … 

~≈⛪︎≈~

I should also mention something.

Yes: a nice shiny box turned up!

I’m now the owner of the Limited edition version of Classic Dr Who’s 21st season.

Frankly?

I’m looking forward to watching the special features: the Behind the Sofa extras are usually fun.

Especially when Janet Fielding’s involved!

~≈🇦🇺≈~

I’m also the owner of a couple of other things.

A couple of cables, to replace the worn one that connects my webcam to my computer.

And a couple of back-up remote controls.

I don’t know about you, but having extras is good.

It’s also good, having had a haircut: courtesy of my local barbers.

I was getting a touch shaggy: and, with spring and summer, coming?

Felt getting a trim, while I had the money, would be a good idea.

~≈💈≈~

As a last thought … ?

My nephew, Jude, was over, last night.

And yes: there’s another new video up.

He’s getting the hang of Final Cut … … 

~≈🎬≈~

Let’s move on.


Yesterday’s Teaser saw Mum* and Debbi† putting in their answers: with both scoring five out of five in a #Dallas themed set.

Let’s see how everyone does with today’s questions, shall we?

Here they are, along with the How To, License and video.

Q1)        22nd March is the Feast day of Saint Nicholas Owen.   He built what: crucifixes, priest holes or alters?

Q2)        DJ, Andy Peebles, died on 22nd March, 2025.   Peebles was the last DJ to interview which Beatle: Paul McCartney, John Lennon, George Harrison or Ringo Starr?

Q3)        22nd March is Bihar Day.   Where: China, India or Bangladesh?

Q4)        The Pope issued a bull called Vox in excelso: on 22nd March, 1312.   The bull dissolved which order: the Jesuits, Knights Templar or Sisters of Charity?

Q5)        Finally … ?   The Arab League was founded on 22nd March.   Of which year of the 1940s?

Here’s yesterday’s questions and answers … 

Q1)        “A House Divided” was broadcast on 21st March.   21st March of which year: 1979, 1980 or 1981?

A1)        1980.

Q2)        The episode was aired on which US TV channel: NBC, ABC or CBS?

A2)        CBS.

Q3)        “A House Divided” was an episode of what: Dallas, Dynasty or The Young and the Restless?

A3)        Dallas.

Q4)        The series focused on a famously fractious family.   Which family: the Barnes, the Ewings or the Carringtons?

A4)        The Ewings.

Q5)        Finally … ?   Who got shot at the end of “A House Divided”?

A5)        Who else?   JR Ewing.   (If I recall correctly, JR was John Ross Ewing 2nd, his father, Jock, was John Ross Ewing 1st, and JR’s son, John Ross, was John Ross Ewing 3rd.   The shooter, Kristin Shepard‡, was played by Mary Crosby: the aunt of Denise Crosby, Star Trek’s Tasha Yar.   Which means Tasha Yar’s aunty shot JR.   It’s funny what sticks in your mind.)

Here’s a thought …

“I give up, why a duck?”

Chico Marx, March 22, 1887 – October 11, 1961.

And a Roger Whittaker song …

The next ten-question set is on 25th March: it’s about Greece.

Your comments, and today’s answers, will be published in tomorrow’s Teaser.

AI is avoided when writing these questions.

Answers are as accurate as possible: at the time of writing.

Decisions about scores are final.

Thank you for coming: have a good day.

*        Hello, Mum!   (Well done: five out of five, yesterday!)

†        Obviously, Debbi!   The aliens are hiding under rocks!

        Oh, talking of the President … 

‡        Kristin was having an affair with J. R: and was Sue Ellen’s sister.   (“Who Done It”, the follow-up episode, was the one to reveal the identity of the shooter: it was, until the last episode of M*A*S*H aired, the most watched episode of American TV, ever aired.)
