Copies are now out in the public domain and there are a few little errors - apologies for that, I really should have got someone to check it as you go a bit word blind yourself!

Anyway, these are the errors:

Question 26 - the answer is 4,2,3,3 not 4,2,1,3

Question 34 - the answer is 10 letters long

Question 63 - the answer is 6,2,3,4 not 7,2,3,4

Question 84 - should reference Alf Garnett not Mitchell (mixing the actor with the character!)

Question 95 - the answer is 7,2,3,4 not 4,2,3,4

OBL, would you be so good as to confirm the numbering for Qn 99 please?

I suspect I am just failing to see the right answer, but thought I should double-check before I drive myself mad ?
