Welcome to
There are two White Room Quizzes each week - one on Monday and one on Wednesday.
Today`s White Room Quiz is the Multi-Choice Answers edition
Instead of the usual eight questions, there are 10 questions - with one question from each of these categories
HISTORY GEOGRAPHY SCIENCE NATURE LITERATURE MUSIC MOVIES TV SPORT GAMES
for the first time, and as a "one off" [and NOT a regular feature in future White Room Quizzes], it is
like "Who Wants To Be A Millionaire?" with four answers to each question - only one is correct.
So you don`t have to "pass" on any question and a chance of getting it right if you have to guess.
The White Room Quiz is open to all members.
Those wishing to take part must pm me - @Mi-Amigo - with their answers between 12 noon today [Wednesday] and 11.59pm tomorrow [Thursday]
I hope our regular quizzers

Thank you @TheresaV and @TallTrees
Some questions might need a bit of thinking about
Just to let everyone know...
and "No!" - unlike "Who Wants To Be A Millionaire", no-one taking part in this WRQ can ask the audience or the host; phone a friend; or go 50-50; and there`s no £1 million prize [O2 couldn`t afford it] but everyone has a chance of getting a Gold Thinker and there is no need to "pass" on questions you don`t know the answer to.
Good luck.

@TallTrees @Mi-Amigo I thought the same.
Thing is when you are presented with 4 answers, you think, 'oh it's that one...oh hang on it could be that one'... so not as easy as I thought....

or when you guess the answer first then realise it isn't one of the options
