    Seeing as how you got Constantinople first in the list I'll give it to you. Constantinople actually took over this position from Beijing somewhere between 1600 and 1650. Over to you.

    Lionel Jeffries. Danny Baker seems to mention this every time I listen to him, which is not as often as I'd like.

    Ok, it's sad. Very sad. But I'm a huge wrestling fan, even in my '30's. So:

    Who is the longest reigning World Wide Wrestling Federation / World Wrestling Federation / World Wrestling Entertainment champion?

    (nerd points if you know it without having to look it up!!)
