    I knew that one was much too easy ! Yes, Queen Victoria declared war (The Crimean one) in the name of Britain, Ireland, Berwick upon Tweed and all British dependencies - peace was declared 2 years later but the name of Berwick was omitted. The Soviet official went there (110 years later) to sign a separate peace treaty. Over to you.

    Red cards. Wagstaff and Best were the first two to receive them. Hartford was the first to receive one when they were reintroduced (didn't realise they had been done away with!!)

    I believe they were also closet train-spotters, were fond of shreddies and knitted jumpers for their mums... (Well, it's as near as I got to the real answer)

    Thanks BB. Watford's first ever televised live match was the 1984 FA Cup final. What was their second ever televised match and what was the score?

    A stupid guess anyway, given that it was played before the '84 Cup Final <doh>

    Was it the Spurs semi-final we lost 1-4?
