"Hello. Me again! Can someone quickly explain to me why The Jackson Five were nicknamed The Rolling Stones?"
"There's nothing left to knight. Dig him up and we'll see. I'll bring what I've dug up round to your house without telling you it's Richard Whiteley and we'll see if your first reaction is "Give that mother a Knighthood!" It won't be - it will be "Mmm, lun"
"I want Richard Whiteley to receive a Knighthood. That's my sole motivation here. I don't know who you are or why you are here, so to me that says it's very unlikely that we're the same person."
"Give that man a blankety-blank knighthood or I will swear for real."
"When they changed the time of Countdown, it almost was the knight! (night that is. But it wasn't as it was 3:15pm but that shouldn't detract from a worthy knighthood award deserved by him)."
"And so a milestone has passed. When I originally wrote my first post on here supporting this petition I was still clinging to the vain hope that dear Richard would pull through and be back behind the desk for another series of Countdown. Sadly not. But on"
"There's a rumour that they'll be reanimating Richard's corpse for the Royal wedding, as Prince William didn't know he'd died when he sent out the invitations. It would be a waste of the technology involved if the Queen didn't also take the opportunity to "
"Hey y'all, I'm just checkin' in to see what's going down here with all the knighthood talk brothers! Peace out."
"Put three pound coins in the slot and we'll provide the night hoods."
"He was a poor performer and a bad man."
"I would like Richard Whiteley to have a Knighthood. Thank you."
"Give Richard a Knighthood? I could have done that a while back but none of you gave me any money."
"And then they all died. The end."
"Richard is the coolest guy ever"
"AV referendum coming up! First choice - Richard Whiteley to get a Knighthood. Second choice - yes to AV. Third choice - no to AV. Fourth choice - me not being killed already."
"One hundred and Eighty! Yes, that's another bullseye for the greatest darts player of all time, Rick Ytlee. Eat your heart out Phil Taylor (well, you probably will given that you're probably going to have a massie heart attack from overeating but that's b"
"It's all in the name. I'm a nutter too but people prefer Bs to Ss."
"Just like I am one half of your mother and father, Sarah (Gull)."
"Not that interesting though. Geese are easy to obtain. In France we have to fight to the death for our equivalent. The head on a spike is the Knighthood. Sure, these can be obtained in other ways but not legally and you might lose both your heads. This is"
"I'm the Magickal Gasman. I come by, read your meter, then do a few card tricks. Sue me! (please paint Richard's hood white.)"
"I remember when I first appeared on Countdown. I was generally seen by the nation as some sort of God and was expected to become a Knight myself. It still hasn't happened, which is something I find very baffling, especially considering that I am probably "
"No, Robin. That's not right. Some perfectly reasonable Northern Irish guy came on as a contestant and Richard just decided to mock him for the next six months. You must have missed the crucial episode."
"This is a short request for a knighthood for RW."
