Warwick School Quiz

[Hellyon]

OK , this is an absolute stinker of a quiz, I do it every year and only ever manage about half the questions and I don't believe anyone has ever answered all of them. How about an answerbank team? There's no prize just the kudos of getting the highest score.
Leave your answers here and I'll send them all in
