As mentioned in the Advanced Notice on Monday, this week`s White Room Quiz is eight "easier" questions selected from various quiz books, in which six questions are classed as "easy" and two are classed as "medium" - but I`m not saying which questions are in the "easy" or "medium" classes. 

There is no QI-style question, where the answer is not what everyone thinks it is.

Good luck, everyone 

 

PLEASE NOTE AMENDED TIMES BELOW FOR SENDING YOUR PM'S WITH ANSWERS

 

The White Room Quiz is open to all members
