Oh dear, sorry about that, guess I was a bit hasty. Oh well, I may put on another 10 question's on here, so watch this thread.

It's been four days now. Is someone going to post the answers to the original questions? Maybe give a spoiler alert first?

Being a one-timer from across the pond, I didn't do particularly well, but I need to see the answers to know if I really knew the few I thought I knew.

I think we should leave it Harland to post the answers
it is his thread

If I have got any wrong then I am sure someone will let me know!

All correct .... you beat the contestant on the program's score .....





(I know ...... I know .......)

My brain doesn't work quickly enough apart from question 1! Give me 15 minutes and I would have got the majority, with Google I would have got them all!

Thanks, Harland. Hope no one did worse than my 5 of 16.

Guess I didn't do too bad, missed 3 of 16. I hadn't seen the questions until now, answered them without aids which I suppose you are supposed to do. Two of the questions I had never heard of, the third.....I always wondered what a hush was.

The Mastermind questions are not that difficult if you have used Wainwright's guide book.I should imagine the person who set the questions used his book.
