    You got...9/14
    We hope you had fun

    Very pleased with that. Particularly when a few 'stab in the darks' came in. Well done Fell for getting 10!

    15 here, same as Blond and Felltop, the middle was my downfall.

    Cheers again @Blond Bombshell, enjoy these quizzes.

    Oh, dear, don't want to brag, but 19/25.
    Yippee
    Pleased with that :emoticon-0100-smile
    The score was quite fair could have had a couple more, went with logic rather than trusting my memory but to counter that I did get lucky with a few guesses.
    I now consider myself as "above average" :emoticon-0140-rofl:

    Also helped that I used to watch certain kids' programmes on TV when mine were small

    I got 9 of 25 right
    10 really as I just accidentally scraped one wrong snswer button when I knew correct one. However , that’s little consolation for a poor performance,
    Cheers Blond

    Must have had something on yesterday... or, as my conspiracy theorist brain kicks in, my body had gone into defence mode.. cut my brain off from causing more harm...

    Embarrassed to say got the tory question 1 right... the angst, the anger... had to wait for the 6 and 7 guesses correct before I came back down to earth...3. Now I know what those two stranded astronauts feel like...

    Enjoy

    3/7 Today I am below average :emoticon-0102-bigsm
    Knew the 3 I got but did absolutely nothing with my guesses.
    I'd actually just read the story about the whale so that counts as a bonus point, I suppose.

    Not brilliant and like BB got the Tory one right, mind you it was more remembering my thoughts when I saw that in the news!
