7/10. Tour de France, skateboarder and the Blue Peter dog did for me. -
5/10. Another Friday guess fest. Only knew that last one.
-
8/10 for me. Got Philadelphian rivers and Atholl Brose wrong.
-
8/10. Slipped up on Ed Banger and June Squibb. Guessed luckily on gunpowder tea.
-
It's online now. 9/10. Better. Unfamiliarity with American English my downfall.
-
6/10. Only knew Goodluck Jonathan, Daft Punk lyrics, board game and Lucky Strike so I'll take it. Fast forwarding through TV ads has cost me again.
-
8/10. Slipped up on blood and Monster Mash.
-
6/10 today. Knew Farad, Gil Scott-Heron, Churchill, UNESCO and was hopeful on the London market. Although a Brian Eno fan, didn't know the Music for Airports question, but went with what I thought was the likeliest answer. Didn't have a clue about the rest.
-
Disappointing 5, of which I knew 4.
-
A guess-tastic 6. Only knew 2 or 3 at most.
-
6/10. Don't watch X-Men or adverts. Wolverine family and loup de mer also evaded me.
-
9/10. Got the battleships wrong. Was relatively confident on the rest.
-
8/10. Missed Roald Dahl and royal family massacre. Didn't know the first but should have remembered the latter.
-
Tough set. 6/10. Only knew Death, Albania, Das Kapital and Smurfs. Had a feeling about the footballer and guessed underground.
-
7/10. Tripped up on Franny and Zooey, Spotify and vegetables.
-
Managed to get 9/10 but still get the last question and the theme wrong!
-
Back to Earth with a bump after a good week. 4, all guesses. A couple of educated guesses but knew none of them for sure. Readers invariably make the mistake of pegging the difficulty level off the scale. Making the questions harder and more obscure doesn't make them better. An average of 3 for a 10 question quiz with 4 options per question is about what you'd expect if everyone was randomly guessing every question.

A guess-tastic 9 today. Only really knew 6 with a couples of 50/50s (Booker and Arbus) and one outright guess (Stalin). Tripped up on Samsung Galaxy S, whatever that is.
-
Thanks!
-
10/10 today. Guantanamo was a guess. Was fairly confident on the rest.
-
7/10. Got the chemical name wrong and couldn't locate Yale or Polaris.
-
Gone Girl was for the most part excellent, even if it became a bit Basic Instinct towards the end. 8.5/10. Maps to the Stars. Normally love Cronenberg, didn't love this movie. Populated exclusively by repellant characters, the movie doesn't engage sympathy or empathy at any point, which I guess was deliberate. Like watching bugs crawling about under a rock for a couple of hours. 6/10.
-
7/10. Didn't know the Presidential dog. Managed to get UNESCO and UNICEF mixed up and went the wrong way on Bond.
-
Gibraltar might have a chance against George. Depending on which George it is of course. Osbourne would be fine, Galloway rather less so.
-
6. Tough set today. Was confident on 4. Guessed Prussia's capital and colonel. Got Marquess, martini, literary device and 25/48/53 wrong.
