    None of which is relevant to a very recent, and annual, early-November celebration....

    The first recorded firework display was at the wedding of Henry the seventh in 1486 ?

    OK..a quickie. In 2017 Charles Dickens will be replaced on the English 10 Pound note - by a woman. She will be the fourth woman to appear on English banknotes - can you name the four ?

    I thought the celebration could be the wedding of Charles and Camilla.

    If all member states of the United Nations beginning with the letter T were listed alphabetically, name the first and last members!

    Bet you have to look! :)

    Well done Cologne. i did think of tuvalu but thought it may be a dependent territory or part of an island group.

    Cheers Dave. Which feature film from the 1940's featured a male playing the female leading role for the entire film ?

    Good try Dave but no. He played the female leading role for the entire film and it was also the title role.
