Bbc Quiz Of The Week ; Week 52

[Buenchico]

Hello again, everyone.

Welcome to the final ‘Quiz of the Week’ thread for 2022.

It’s a very quiet week, as there is no junior quiz this week and no Timed Teaser to frustrate us either.

So we just have the main quiz this week, where I managed to round off the year with a decent score of SIX out of seven:

Happy New Year!

I mamged 5 but did know all the answers. Guesses let me down on the other two. All the best for 2023, buenchico.

Hi, Ken! You sneaked in there late!

The question setter is a master (or mistress?) of bluff and double bluff. If you decide that an answer is "too obvious", it's invariably right. However when you actually go for the "obvious" answer, it's invariably wrong!

Well done on ending the year with a decent score anyway!
