    That's not much of a clue! A sewer rat is of a higher standing than Baz!

    OK 666 can be used as reference to the Antichrist or Devil.

    Billy Bragg, Alex Salmon or Hitler. <laugh>

    Nearly there...

    Hitler was definitely thought to be 'it', along with Reagan, Clinton, Bush, Kissinger - even one of the popes! But there is one person who fits more of the identifying prophecies than all of them - and he can't be too far from taking over...

    Run his name through the gematria in both English and Hebrew - you'll find he's not. <laugh>

    The 'Internet' seems to suggest it could be Barak Obama?

    There's still someone else with a greater claim - and he's as British as they come.

    <applause> Fits the criteria for being the Antichrist perfectly according to those who study these things. He will apparently rule for 42 months before forcing the Second Coming.....

    Over to you..

    Er.. I'm off to bed now so I can only check answers first thing in the morning - if you are sure you've got it right then just set the next one. My question.
    Over which coin, which was in circulation in Britain, did people say that it had two Kings heads but wasn't worth a crown ?

    Was it the coin that was valued at 4/6 in Henry viii reign? Can't remember what it was called and don't have time to wiki it.

    Didn't know, so had a look around and the only coin worth 4/6d is the Crown of the Rose. 1526-1551 so would have been Henry VIII

    Not there yet folks - later than that, and doesn`t solve the riddle of the two Kings' heads (two separate Kings appearing on one coin). The answer lies in the metal used and the period.
