Super participation on this challenging quiz - particularly seam-ripping fun though 👍

Well done all, including the newbies 😉

Thank you @TallTrees .... there's room for two here  😀

[Cleoriff]

Great game @Mi-Amigo. Only one I really struggled with was the armour question. It was either a visor or arm plate as I recall so that was a lucky guess. 😂

Well done one and all. As I'm running behind, I need to look for quiz two. x

Thank you @Cleoriff 

Pleased you enjoyed the quiz and well done on getting a Silver Thinker, with your guess at the armour question having paid off - as one of the quizzers did give breast plate as an answer which unfortunately was incorrect.

People have been sent to The Naughty Step for far worse and less @BobM 😂 - ask Pop it in Pete TNS gatekeeper 😁
