"If you are stuck at home and bored like me. How about exercising the old grey cells? I have for a number of years run quiz nights and couple of times a year. I was due to do one tomorrow which is now cancelled So I have a bank of questions sitting in my computer's hard drive. They are quite eclectic in their nature. I am thinking I could put up a set of questions for which you write down your answers. After 30mins or so I will put up the answers. DO NOT POST YOUR ANSWERS. before I post the right answers. You mark your own answers and post your score. I will then record the scores and at the end of the ""lockdown"" we will see who is WHO's brainbox supreme. Obiviously no looking up the answers (you only cheat yourselves) Word of warning these won't be easy questions as they have been devised for teams of six. Forming teams on here might be too problematic. So I'll try to pick out the easier questions. Any interest?"

"7. Sunk by the Kaiser. And never knew about Carroll so took a stab at Andy, ha. Or 6 if (for 10) ""wasn't a UK hit"" will do? Probably playing too vague! Also correct (having checked) it was their only single on the Dance UK label. It was only released on CD in Australia. It was their only single (to that date) not on their Never Forget compilation. It was the follow-up to... nothing. But I didn't put those. Just making my point it could be ""unique"" for various reasons ;-)"

"Also 5. Slightly surprised at that as two tenuous guesses came in (Kaiser and Kaiser Bill) and could not even guess at the others, no clue."

"5 here too thanks to the Titanic link on the song. Total guess on Mark Owen and annoyingly put ""didn't get to the top 10"" for the last one, bugger!"

"6 or so. Pure logic suggests there's more than one ""correct"" answer to 10. No expert either."

"Definite 5 today, possible 6 subject to my very sketchy knowledge of boy bands gleaned from reading Darlo Debs and Gopnik Pickle's posts over the years"
