City Rocker Posted May 22, 2018 Report Share Posted May 22, 2018 Seriously? I can't believe I just went through that insult to my intelligence, I would have got those all right when I was about 8.

RedM Posted May 23, 2018 Report Share Posted May 23, 2018 93% Are those seriously questions in the test. Crazy, all you need to do is study history ( my poorest subject) and take some obvious guesses and you’re in. Needs to be much more emphasis on UK law etc IMO. Then people can’t plead ignorance.

Major Isewater Posted June 4, 2018 Report Share Posted June 4, 2018 This is one of those software programmes where gullible people think they are simply having a bit of fun with a quiz when in fact it is a data gathering tool . Still go ahead . You probably participate in those ' in programme ' television ' quizzes which cost a quid to send by texto when the questions are like ; " In the programme you are watching is Jess married to a) His wife or b) A Tyrannosaurus Rex ? " " In this match which Barcelona have won 3-0 who scored his hat trick a) Messi or b) A hostess trolley ? " Can't you see it ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Channel Islands, including Jersey and Guernsey, are independent of UK governance, although the UK is responsible for their defense. I hate these sort of spelling/grammatical mistakes.

Q20 refers to the Whigs, late 17thC and 18thC with Messrs. Walpole, Pitt, Grenville etc.: I don't understand your problem. I am not seeking to argue, just a genuine question.

I thought you were referring to the question itself, not that there were too many of them. I gave up half way through, as I got bored - perhaps I shall try to complete it one quiet day in the future.

(probably a bonus point to be had somewhere for those who did the above, & kept a stiff upper lip without breaking into tears) Chin, chin, old chap.
