I'm Fading Like A Flower . . .

[Buenchico]

. . . according the scoring system for this week's BBC Quiz of the Week.
(7 = Dressed for Success, 4 to 6 = Fading Like a Flower, 0-3 = Crash! Boom! Bang!)

That's because I scored 5 this week:

I reckon that it's one of the trickier weeks though (as my score relied on some guesses), so how well will you do ?

Although not an official AB member my wife got 3. She is looking forward to the next one. :-)

Welcome to the Fabulous Fivers, Margo! (Guesses all count!)

3's not too bad a starting point for Mrs RC, Retrocop. That's better than many people here but with scope for improvement in future weeks. (I usually post the BBC Quiz thread at around 8pm on a Friday but, of course, the quiz itself is available on the BBC website from midnight Thursday onwards).

My worse result for a long time. Only scored 2.

A few successfully guessed, but still drooping like a daisy.
I got 5.

[Ellipsis]

Did it last Friday and got 2 (below average for me, usually around a 5, very rarely a 7, never without a guess or two or a "they're all right").

Did it again today on seeing this OP and got 7 (normal for me on a second pass within a week ...)

Dohhh...I got 3. But it would have been 5 if I'd stuck to my original instincts.
