Re: Daily Quiz anyone?
Trying something different today so a bit experimental. Work out the TV programme names from the puzzles, i.e. TV & Film Dingbats. Obviously credit goes to another site who produced this hence the reason I have never heard of Q7 or 14, hence the experimentation! You should be able to increase size of image by clicking it, again experimentation!!
