Yep, mine are also different to all of those. I think I've won then.

"on 9 June 1957, the body of a diver was found floating near Pilsey Island in Chichester Harbour."

How is that an event that took place in November?

Very ingenious answer to (8) by the way - "S" is the code for Sheffield but it's a matter of how you interpret "the start of a postcode".

The question was badly-worded. If I was running this quiz, and had asked it that way, I would have no choice but to accept "S" as a correct answer.

[tractakid]

Well, as far as I can tell, we should all be tied on 6.

Fifa 11 is common between GU and GB, We all said November (German, hence the capital N I used), and my incorrect answer for 1)

That means everyone's score is 2*3.

This took place on 9 October. I haven't checked the other answers yet but assuming they're all right that puts Going Underground in third place with 12 points, tractakid and me in joint first with 6.

You're forgetting my answers, which will be er, are different to everyone else's.

[GuyBarry]

You're forgetting my answers, which will be er, are different to everyone else's.

But are any of them right?

[tubeguru]

Oh yes, I've had them checked by myself.

[greatkingrat]

But if I had entered I would have given exactly the same answers as Neil, so we both have scored 2^10.

[tractakid]

But you would score more than that, due to an incorrect answer on questions 5 and 6 scoring 4 and 6 points respectively.

[tubeguru]

I really don't know what you're all arguing about. My answers are different to everyone else's, so I am the winner.

[GuyBarry]

Actually you're all wrong. The winner is the person who made the most words out of the word "November".
