Word Up

Word Up is one of the opening rounds in Never Mind the Buzzcocks.

Each team is given an odd word taken from a song, like "Bismillah" from Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen or "Beltane" from Ride a White Swan by T-Rex. They are then asked what the word means. Two points are awarded if they know what the word means. Otherwise, for one point, they are given three choices of plausible explanations and must guess which of those is the answer.

Origin of the Round Name
The name of the round is taken from the Cameo song of the same name, "Word Up!"
