We could have a problem here. The 'token comedy answer' in each pool is a useful fact about Idaho. Unfortunately they are mostly very good.

Criterion for progression is scoring more than the comedy answer. I can't see anything progressing from pools J or M. The Idaho fact in pool M is just brilliant.

I've checked my source.

Sales: £118.2m (-1.5%)

Kerry Foods threw £5m at Richmond’s June relaunch, in a bid to update the brand and appeal to modern families. Still, unit sales fell by 1.8 million (2.8%), suggesting those families weren’t impressed by the decision to cut the number of Richmond Thick Sausages per pack from 16 to 14.

What can you do with 14 thick sausages that you can't with 16 slightly thinner ones?

I think the chances of the 14 being slightly thicker than the 16 are negligible. I don't think I've ever knowingly bought a Richmond sausage. Or an Alpro. They are a yoghurt prand yes? There are several of them on the start sheet I think.
