Bbc Quiz : Week 50

[Buenchico]

It’s probably not one of the hardest weeks for the main quiz but I could still only achieve a middling FOUR out of seven:

It’s a really easy week in the kids’ quiz this week (as, indeed, it should be anyway – it’s not really meant for us grown-ups to do!). However I still couldn’t achieve a maximum, as my memory didn’t accurately stretch back a full year for the Covid question, so that meant a score of FOUR out of five for me:

I kicked myself for getting some answers wrong in the Timed Teaser this week but I still managed a half-decent SIX out of ten:

(I’ll swear that ruddy timer bar moves faster every week though!)

How will YOU do, this week I wonder?

[Mozz71]

More middling scores for me.

[Milo2]

I nearly matched your scores, 3, 4 and 6.

[Patsy33]

3 :-)

[cashier]

Three and four.

[Buenchico]

Just one mark different to my own scores then, both Mozz and Milo2, so well done ;-)

Well done too, Patsy, with that very good 6!

[Buenchico]

There seems to be a lot of similarity across the scores so far this week. (Good evening, Cashier!).

[cashier]

Seven on the timed, couldn't tell you what the questions were, just stab my finger down.

[Cloverjo]

Slightly lower middling. 3, 3 and 5

My new Laptop arrives on Monday. Your suggested retailer seem quite efficient.

[wolf63]

Cashier - same here. I just glaned at the question whilst stabbing the keyboard.

[roopower]

Dire, 3,4 and 3. In my defence I have been 'doing Christmas' this week ready for a weekend trip 'home' to Norfolk/Suffolk tomorrow.

Adult 3/7 Kids 3/5 - 10 sec quiz 4/10
At least no zero this week

[Buenchico]

There's certainly some consistency this week, with not much of the usual wide variation between scores.

Your 'stab at it' technique seems to have worked well for you with the timed quiz, Cashier! Well done!

It seems not to have been quite as useful for Wolfie though ;-)
[I hope that you like your 'new' laptop, Susan. If you've not used a machine with a solid state drive before, you'll probably notice how much quicker it boots up when you turn it on].

There's not much difference between the scores reported by Clover, Roo and Sam this week, so you can all keep each other company! (I'm well, thank you, Sam, as I hope that you are too. I hope that Roo will be dressing warmly when visiting us here in East Anglia; she'll certainly need to!).

Tony's doing a fine job this week, propping everyone else up with his scores ;-)
[Given that he's used to propping a bar up, that's probably not too surprising, really though!]
;-)

[Buenchico]

Two decent scores anyway, Piggy! (We'll just brush the other one under the carpet though this week, shall we?)
;-)

You're very much 'in with the crowd' this week, Kwillmott. I hope that they don't all lead you astray - or should that be the other way around? ;-)

[Given that he's used to propping a bar up, that's probably not too surprising, really though!]

LOL, now there's a good idea.
