Hi Ab's I have been working on this quiz for nearly a month now and am still struggling to get one answer. It is a type of story and have to fill in the blanks.
It goes like this Ross and Rachel and a few of their (7 ------are going on holiday to (8) -----------in Spain. 6,3, 7. are quite a bit older ------------than the rest but enjoy going away with 3,5,4. ----------Rachel and (7) ..?....this is the 7 letter word i am stuck on work as (12)
My question here is , rachel and whom (7) letters work as 12. I have tried to think of this 7 letter name until I could scream. Any help would be appreciated. Hope all of this makes sense..

[sandyRoe]

Sorry, didn't read the Q properly

[factor-fiction]

I get the start: Ross and Rachel and a few of their FRIENDS are going on holiday to BENIDORM in Spain.

I don't understand the way the rest is set out

[murraymints]

friends

[guilliebrougues]

yes SandyRoe that is how it goes. As I have said I have filled in all the blanks apart from that one word.Rachel and .......work as Dinnerladies at least that is what i have put.

Miranda?

[factor-fiction]

Yes, the Young Ones will be in there
Can you write the paragraph including your answers please and then leave a gap for the bit you haven't found yet.

[murraymints]

Ie Ross and Sachel were characters in Friends on telly...

[murraymints]

Rachel..even !!

[guilliebrougues]

Okay factor 30. I will write the paragraph plus my answers and the gap i cannot get. here goes.
Ross and Rachel and a few of their friends are going on holiday to Benedorm in Spain. George and Mildred are quite a bit older than the rest but enjoy going away with the young ones. Rachel and (7) (this is where I am stuck) work as Dinnerladies at their local school.

Could be "Barbara", starring Gwen Taylor

[guilliebrougues]

I have never seen the programme Barbara, Was she a dinnerlady? anyway, thanks I now have another name to think about.

[factor-fiction]

Miranda seemed okay to me but I suppose it could be any 7 letter name rather than the name of a character in the real programme as I don't think there was Rachel, Barbara or Miranda in dinnerladies.

[guilliebrougues]

no there was not. and i am assuming that my answer as dinnerladies is correct. back to the grindstone i think.

[TheWinner]

Can I just check, did "they" give you the name rachel in the sentence you are stuck on?

[guilliebrougues]

Yes, the Winner, it says Rachel and (7) work as (12) I have got- Dinnerladies -at their local school.

[TheWinner]

Rachel and Shelley ?? the name shelley is also a girls name, was also an old comedy programme, even though it was about a man (his surname). They don't 'really' have to be dinnerladies, it's a story, it is the answers that have to be the names of the programmes. Not an answer, a suggestion.

[guilliebrougues]

The Winner. that is correct it is a story based on answers of television comedy programs but the blanks and number of letters are the only clues we have.

If you like, I can give you a link to comedy shows for you to look through, as I have to sign off now - just for a short while. Will check back later.
