    A disappointing 15.
    Disappointing as I had 13 out of the first 15.
    Then 2 out of 10!!
    I know bugger all about noses, other than i have one, and know even less about Shakespeare.
    School must have been easier during Shakesperian times: for a start, you didn't have to study bloody Shakespeare.

    On another note....if the females noses had been their tits, I would have got them all. Who looks at noses ffs.

    Cheers as always @Blond Bombshell.

    A disappointing 16. Should not have rushed some of the questions. Next week I'll take more time - and probably get 10.

    Weekly quiz: Who's playing John Lennon in the new Beatles movies?
    • Published
      3 April 2025
    This week saw a deadly earthquake rock Myanmar, a US senator speak for 25 hours straight...

    But how much attention did you pay to what else has been going on in the world over the past seven days?

    https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cwy740ln551o

    Had a bit of a sweat on when I got the first three guesses wrong. Got the next three correct including one I knew. Still, 3 classed as Bad News...

    Enjoy

    Destined to never to get an Ace in this.

    Cheers as always @Blond Bombshell.

    4/7 seems to be my standard score at the moment. Lucky in so far as I had read a number of the stories on which questions based. The Beatles question was also in another quiz and I remembered it from there.
    Quite happy with that :emoticon-0100-smile

    Some really obscure ones in there, so happy with that.

    Pleased the Beatle came up again and I was able to relax early.
