No googling, wiki, youtube search for answers.
As usual, there is one QI-style question, where the answer is not what most people assume.
I have tried to make this quiz a fair balance of questions, although one question may prove tricky.
This quiz - as are all White Room Thursday Quizzes - are open to all members.
I hope those who have taken part in a previous White Room Thursday Quiz will take part, and that new members, and those who have not previously played, will join in.
Please feel free to post any comments on the questions - but not the answers - on this thread.
If you have any questions about the quiz, please ask and I will reply here.
Thank you everyone for your interest.
I hope everyone enjoys this People`s Choice edition of the White Room Thursday Quiz.

@jonsie wrote:Q7 @Mi-Amigo ? Spelling?
Thank you for spotting that @jonsie
In fact, there are two typos in original post, which reads:
Q7 [GEOGRAPHY]: In which country are the Toodos montains?
which should read:
Q7 [GEOGRAPHY]: In which country are the Troodos mountains ?
if possible, could @Marjo please change the spelling mistakes on original post at start of page one?
Thank you...
