Les concurrents de ce jeu portant sur la culture générale devaient répondre au plus grand nombre de questions possible en l'espace de deux minutes. Si l'animateur était en train de poser une question lorsque retentissait la sonnerie qui annonçait la fin du temps imparti, il prononçait rituellement ces mots ("j'ai commencé, je vais donc finir") avant de finir de lire la question au concurrent. Aujourd'hui, on utilise cette phrase par allusion au jeu télévisé lorsqu'on est interrompu. -

6 start a hare
поднять, выдвинуть новый вопрос; переменить тему разговора; отвлечь внимание говорящего от темы разговораHypatia: ".All I listen for is some sign of it ending in something; but just when it seems to be coming to a point, Johnny or papa just starts another hare; and it all begins over again..." (B. Shaw, ‘Misalliance’) — Ипатия: "...я только и делаю, что слушаю бесконечные, бесплодные разглагольствования. Только покажется, что договорились наконец до чего-то разумного, как вдруг Джонни или папу осенит новая идея, и все начинается сначала..."
You're a good fellow, McCall, but the very devil to converse with. You start a hare with every sentence, and don't hunt down one of them. (R. Aldington, ‘The Colonel's Daughter’, part I, ch. 6) — Вы славный малый, Маккол, но беседовать с вами дьявольски трудно. У вас в каждой фразе новая мысль, и вы ни одну из них не доводите до конца.
My host was content to let the evening take its own course, and the author was a very practiced listener who started the hares and let the talk chase them in a dozen directions at once. (M. West, ‘The Ambassador’, ch. VIII) — Хозяин наш предоставлял беседе идти своим чередом, писатель же, принадлежа к числу опытных слушателей, выпускал зайца и затем наблюдал, как собеседник гоняет его по двенадцати разным направлениям.
