tpw - do these questions come in sections? It seems to me that 41 - 50 are biblical, 21 - 30 are literary (?), what sort of answer are we looking for with 18 ?

Possibility that 41 is The tent dwellers. I haven't had time to check it out and won't for quite a while yet. Perhaps some other person knows.......

[tpw536w]

Hi kettledrum, 18 is in the section with films, & famous people in films

[tpw536w]

Kettledrum, Hope you don't mind me asking but how do you get "the tent Dwellers" yes it is in the biblical section.

[kettledrum]

tpw - I haven't forgotten you, but I've been v busy today. When does your quiz have to be in?
I only suggested Tent Dwellers as a POSSIBILITY and said I'd check it out. At the back of my mind I have a feeling that "tent dwellers" and "hewers of wood" and such-like weren't considered to be frightfully bright.
I only mentioned it hoping it would encourage someone else to put us both right!
