Ally Pally is a good possibility I'd say Mick...

Possibly Alexandra Palace?
Quite the tacky interior Regards Neil

With that interior you'd think the car was called Marlene!!
I used to be indecisive, now I'm not so sure!

Old 00s - not a clue
New 00s - not a clue
90s - no show
80s - knew the artist after 5secs but not the title
70s - knew the artist after 5secs but no title
60s - recognised but no idea

Falcon demolishes Heardle
Falcon 5 Heardle 1
Original (2 secs) 60's (17 secs) 70's (17 secs) 80's (8 secs) 00's (6 secs)
Match analysis
Superb chance-taking from Falcon to race into a 4-0 lead before the now customary Heardle no show. Falcon immediately made it 5-0 pouncing on a schoolboy error from heardle with the 2000's, before heardle registered it's scant consolation with a dubious bit of foul-mouthed garbage.

Sixties: Familiar intro but ultimately a complete fail.
Seventies: Fail.

Re: Pickled Egg Quiz
Another dire day at the Manor. Just got the 60s on the 17th second but total failure for the rest. I didn't even recognise any of the tracks after seeing the answers!!

Falcon edges win in close contest
Falcon 4 Heardle 3
60's (17 secs) 80's (5 secs) 90's (12 secs) 00's (10 secs)
Match analysis
Close encounter of the cosmic kind, but Falcon bagged the 60's at the last second, which ultimately secured the win.

Re: Pickled Egg Quiz
Normalish service resumed today, 5secs for the 60s, vague recognition of the rhythm guitar in the 80s and nothing else to record!

Falcon 5 Heardle 2
Original (16 secs) 60's (2 secs) 80's (2 secs) 90's (2 secs) 00's (2 secs)

Random quiz question generated from a page in my 1972 quiz book!!
A famous incident occurred on 27th August 1883 which had an instant effect up to 3000 miles away, and a prolonged effect for months. What was it?

So top of the head, a volcanic eruption would be a reasonable incident to fit the bill and, cause such an effect, when was Kracatoa? (probablly spelt that incorrectly but you know what I mean).
