The game's question

Stop at the clue that brings the name back – there is no need to read them all.

Christmas 1977. Paper hats on, the crackers pulled and the radio playing in the background. A song with a Scottish place name in its title: ‘Mull of Kintyre’. It was the Christmas number one, stayed at the top for nine weeks and became the first single to sell more than two million copies. Which group was it? Circle the name together.

  • Pink Floyd
  • The Wurzels
  • Wings
Need a hint?

Flap your arms gently, like a gull over the shore: their name is what a bird needs to fly.

See the answer

Answer: Wings – ‘Mull of Kintyre’, the Christmas number one of 1977.

Why this game : A Christmas song shared again calls up the whole day – the table, the paper hats and the people around it.
