Silly, fun BBC survey

Question: Add together the number of completed series of Strictly Come Dancing
and the number of completed years since the BBC was first founded.

What number do you get?

I make it 89 ......... any other offers?

Gueld

Yeah I think 89 is right

DaisyBella_2

I get: 95 or 94

(2010 - 1922) + 7 = 95 0r 94 (if this is not a completed year since BBC founded).


EDIT: I am going for 94. BBC founded 18th October 1922 - so not yet a completed year for 2010.

Any other ideas???

BBC started 18th Oct 1922 - (87 complete years)
This year is series 8 of Strictly - so 7 comnpleted series.

I make it 94?

I make it 90.

we are in the 8th strictly so 7 completed
BBC launced in 1927 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BBC)

2010 - 1927 + 7 = 90

2010 isn't a completed year

Gueld

Yeah I went with wiki that says 1927, which would be 82 completed years. Add the 7 completed series of Stictly that'd be 89?

zenseeker

Wiki says that BBC was founded in 1922

Just to chuck a spanner in the works: if the comp ends on 28th Oct....and BBC started (by some accounts) on 18th Oct, anyone answering in the last week of the comp will have an extra year

pippitypop

i think it's 94..

it says when it was first founded.. which was in 1922.
