I am struggling too! The only one I can help with is 45.....Birefringent. Anagram of bent finger,plus ir, whole wod means doubly refracting as Iceland Spar is. Obscure or what!!

[Pea Brain]

Thank you so much wymondham, how you ever got that I dont know ! I couldnt get past the thought that the invisible light was 'uv' !!!! There are some very difficult questions this time - I cant imagine I will ever actually finish it !!! Happy New Year to you !!!! P

[wymondham2]

Just had another look! 95...I have put catwoman, because Halle Berry played this part, ant the word 'two' is in the answer! Do you have the answers to 4, 8 & 11? Still have about 20 more left to get!!

[Pea Brain]

Well done with catwoman !
4. I have got 'whitworth thread' . Anag of 'hat the word writhed' without the ed. Something to do with screws apparently !!!
8. The great divide. A joining of two river basins in usa.
Sorry I cant help with 11.!!!! P

[wymondham2]

Thank you peabrain, I'll struggle on!

[dabber]

For Q. 11 the answer is found within "Faraday demonstrated" when read backwards! Do you have Q. 46 yet - thanks.

[smouse]

46 is 6 3 6 not 7 3 5
and no I dont have an answer

[Pea Brain]

Thanks dabber I will work on that.
Smouse- where did you find the change of spaces for 46 please ?
Happy New Year !!!!! P

[Pea Brain]

Many thanks Minoru, I really hadnt thought of her !!!! P

[rogerr]

I still can't get 37 in spite of a clue :o(
can someone please help?
P--gen2 posted the correction to his quiz on here a few weeks ago.

[Pea Brain]

I am having the same trouble as you rogerr with 37 - everyone thinks Im mad going round reading that clue out loud - doesnt mean a thing Im afraid !!!
Thank you for correction to 46 - It doesnt make a lot of difference to me - not got an inkling !!!!! P

[smouse]

Maybe its cos I dont have a clue but as not everyone has seen this I'd like to think it will be a void question

I understand the answer is on the same lines as 16 where one part of the clue then leads to an answer but not that the whole clue is the answer

If that helps someone then put us out of our misery lol

[Pea Brain]

I havent got 16 as yet - perhaps you could give me a bit more of a clue ? Please. !!!!!! P

[rogerr]

Thanks P, I'm glad I'm not the only one doing that! ;o)
still got 25 Qs left!

[rogerr]

By the way, as I haven't got a hope of finishing this, I will gladly give you any that I have---seems we are probably all stuck on the same ones, but you never know!

[smouse]

16 do anagram of first two words

[wymondham2]

Still can't work out 11 & 16!! Like rogerr I have around 20 to solve, if anyone wants the answers to any I have got , please ask. I am slowly losing the will to live over this particular quiz!

[rogerr]
