Bbc Quiz : Week 8

[Buenchico]

Good news: You can't score zero this week because there's a question with three correct reponses offered to it.

Bad news: The first question is about the Brit Awards, which most people here usually say they know absolutely nothing about!

I managed 4 out of 7 (which is basically my 'standard' score of 3 with the freebie added to it) and my guess is that 4 will also be the most common score that you lot get this week. Will you rise above the common herd though?

The usual 3. But with the freebie thrown in, that is BAAAAAAD!
Don't tell me Chris; I'm typing this from the back of the class!

[Ellipsis]

A meagre 4 after a run of sixes and sevens!

[lady-janine]

6 this week. but I have to admit that some of them were guesses. just not up with the news this week.

hope you are well Chris.

6/7

[tamborine]

5 but like the human compost....good for my dratted neighbor ;)

[Stephen_G]

A poor 3/7 yesterday.

[Buenchico]

Some mixed scores, I see!

3 isn't too bad, 10CS and Stephen! (Afrer all, it's what I usually get!). And it's not the lowest score this week either!

Welcome to our elite little group on 4, Ellipsis ;-)

It looks like 5 will be the most common score this week though, with Mardup, Margo and Tambo all doing well!

Danny's up in his usual high place with 6, joined this wek by Lady-J. Well done, both of you!

Emmie is this week's superstar though, with a perfect 7! Well done indeed!

[zebo]

I managed 5, apart from the Jaegermeister question I had not read about any of the stories!

[pixie374]

4

[Buenchico]

Ah! Perhaps that's where I'm going wrong, Zebo. I read the news stories and therefore expect to be able to answer the questions about them. However your technique of not reading the relevant news stories appears to work far better ;-)

(Well done with that 5 anyway, however you got it!)

[Buenchico]

All the very best people have scored 4 this week, Pixie ;-)

[pixie374]

I feel better now :-). Hope your health is good, Chris xx

[ducksie]

I got 7 Chris

[Buenchico]

Thanks for thinking about my health, Pixie. I feel absolutely fine, with no adverse effects whatsover from the hormone therapy but I'm not looking forward to when the chemotherapy starts!

Oops! Yes I know that you scored 7, Ducksie but it slipped my mind when congratulating Emmie upon doing the same. Sorry!

[pixie374]

Hope it goes well, Chris xx

[Buenchico]

Thanks, Pixie, and I hope that you're well too!

[ducksie]

Thanks Chris :)

[Tilly2]

5/7 for me. Mostly guesses.

[Buenchico]

How come other people can get decent scores with 'mostly guesses' and I never do?

Well done anyway, Tilly2!
