Bbc Quiz : Week 49

[Buenchico]

You should be able to beat me easily in the main quiz this week! Just a paltry TWO out of seven for me:

There are some easy questions in the junior quiz this week (as, indeed, there should be, given that it's meant for kids) but I still couldn't do better than THREE out of five:

There are some easy questions in the dreaded Timed Teaser too, which helped me towards a reasonable (although not fantastic) score of SIX out of ten:

Your turn, folks!

[Cloverjo]

Not TOO bad.
4, 2 and 7

[calmck]

6, 4 and 5 for me

[Milo2]

A much better week for me - 5,5 and 8.

[roopower]

3,4 and 5 for me this week. Not too bad considering Ive hardly read or watched any news.

[Buenchico]

You're not very childlike this week, Clover, but you managed to beat me twice anyway. Well done!

Calmck managed to beat me twice too, trebling my score in the first quiz in the process, I see! Very well done!

Milo2 has beaten me in all three quizzes though, including an exceptional score of 8 in the timed quiz! Very well done indeed!

[Buenchico]

Well done, too, on beating me twice, Roo!

With several of the stories, I'd read them on the BBC website and found myself thinking "I bet that turns up in the quizzes this week", so I'd better take note of the information. That still didn't prevent me from getting the answers wrong though!

Four and three. Thanks for posting Buenchicho.

[cashier]

Same as you on the timed, six.

[Buenchico]

Consistent, Piggy! Well done on joining Milo2 in the club for perfect kids ;-)

Bang in the middle, twice over, Cashier!

[Buenchico]

. . . and welcome to the Sprint Sixers' club too, Cahier ;-)

[Buenchico]

^^^ 'Cahier'???

Oh well, I'm sure you know who you are, anyway ;-)

[jourdain2]

You beat me by one, Buen. 1/7; 3/5; 6/10. Happy enough with that.

[piggynose]

I made a mistake.

[Buenchico]

Thanks, Jourdain2. I feel happier now that I'm not last in the main quiz ;-)

[Buenchico]

OK, Piggy. So you got three times my score on the first quiz, rather than only two-and-a-half times it. There's no need to rub my nose in it, you know!

;-)

Sorry Chris I wasn't trying to wind u up.
The truth is I tried to get a head start by starting earlier by googling BBC quiz 49. When Id finished I looked at yr quiz and it was totally different.
Ive no idea wot happened.

[tonyav]

2/7, 4/5 and 5/10 for me this week.
