We could not be clearer about the terms of this challenge: 146 questions, 146 seconds – no gimmicks, no softballs, just a timer and some silly propositions. Eighteen-stone goal machine, Adebayo Akinfenwa, got through ten; millennial everywoman, Dolly Alderton, set a new record with 12. Who fancies their chances this time around?
Readers, please, make some noise for Jordan Stephens, the ‘Rizzle’ in Rizzle Kicks, who joins us on the eve of the Brighton duo’s reformation. Having soundtracked Coalition Britain pretty comprehensively as teenagers – is there any song more 2011 than Down with the Trumpets? – Stephens and his writing partner, Harley Alexander-Sule, got out of the music game in 2015, breaking out into TV, film and all the good things in life. Now, older & suitably recharged, they’re back, and are marking the occasion in our lovely magazine. Can Rizzle break the record?
- Would you ever live in Chicago? Yes.
- How many people in your life would you feel comfortable lending £200 to? 15.
- Do you think people get too angry about AI? No.
- They say ska is making a comeback – did it ever really go away? Not to some people.
- Do you miss Thorntons? In physical location form? No.
- Do you think it’s odd that she is still known as ‘Kate Middleton’ in the public, even though that hasn’t been her name for almost 13 years? No. Don’t know and don’t care.
