Bbc Quiz : Week 41

[Buenchico]

A good start for me this week, with SIX out of seven in the adult quiz:

. . . but then just a middling THREE out of five for me in the junior quiz:

I’ve also discovered Aunty Beeb’s new Tuesday Timed Teasers. I actually knew all 10 of the right answers to this week’s quiz but clicked on a couple of them a fraction of a second too late before the timer ran out, leaving me with EIGHT out of ten:

So, feeling buoyed by my success, I went back and tried the previous week’s one as well. Perhaps I shouldn’t have done though, as I only managed a lousy FOUR out of ten. (Once again, I missed out on a point by clicking on a correct answer just as the ten seconds were up. You’ve got to be quick to answer these type of questions!):

So plenty to have a go at this week. Any takers?

[cashier]

Two and two this week.

[Buenchico]

That's low for you, Cashier! Perhaps you could do better with the timed ones?

[wolf63]

2/7
2/5
2/10

Not a great week for me.

[cashier]

Six on the first, must be having a bad brain day.

[Buenchico]

Well, you're certainly consistent in your scores, Susan! ;-)

(You missed out a quiz though. Perhaps you could do better in that one?)

[Buenchico]

That's over half marks anyway, Cashier. You're getting better!

;-)

[tonyav]

A very poor 2/7 and 1/5.

[Lie-in King]

6/7 (stupid Korean food)
5/5
9/10 (stupid tycoon)
3/10 (stupid everything)

[cashier]

Four on the last one, can't read quick enough.

[campbellking]

3/7, 3/5, 5/10 and 6/10. Robbie now aware that human is packing to go to Norfolk again tomorrow and is not looking happy ….

[kwillmott]

3/7
2/5
1/10 (too quick for me!)

[Buenchico]

Definitely time to take to the bottle, in my opinion, Tony ;-)

It's good to know that I'm not the only one who struggles to read those questions fast enough, Cashier ;-)

Very well done indeed, Lie-in King. (Well, up until the last quiz, anyway!)
;-)

Decent enough scores this week I think, Campbellking. Give Robbie some extra Dreamies - he might forgive you for a bit then ;-)

(I can't go to Norfolk for a while. We Suffolk folk are only allowed one visa every 6 months, so I'm saving my next one for Christmas boozing in Norwich).
;-)

[Mamyalynne]

5/7
3/5
4/10

[Buenchico]

3, 2, 1, . . .
Are you counting down to blast-off, Kwillmott?

I can see why you didn't do the fourth quiz though with the direction that your scores seemed to be going ;-)

[Buenchico]

Better than many, Mamya ;-)

[Mamyalynne]

and a 2/10

[Buenchico]

Oops! Like me, Mamya, trying that one wasn't perhaps such a good idea ;-)

[tiggerblue10]

I stopped doing these a couple of weeks ago as my scores were embarrassingly. They haven't faired much better this week with 2 for each.

[Buenchico]

Thanks for being brave enough to try again (and to report your scores), Tigger ;-)

Perhaps you might do better with the timed quizzes?

[tiggerblue10]

Lol, I got 3/10 on the first one as it kept choosing answers for me so I gave up!
