THE FINAL!
1) I will accept your first Personal Message to myself as your definitive entry for that week. Any further attempts to answer for any individual week will not be considered.
2) Points will be simplified this year. You get one point for each correct answer. Simple. All points are carried forward to the following week to form a running total. The person with the most overall points at the end of the 8 week run, wins.
3) In the event of two or more people getting the exact amount of points at the end, I will post three tie-break questions. These questions will appear on Sunday 18th October (the day the quiz finishes) until
9pm. The first person to post their correct answers publicly wins! The winner of this year's quiz will be announced by midnight on Sunday October 18th.
4) The prize: The prize is a glossy desk calendar. Each month is a different photo of a classic Radio Times cover. There are four classic Christmas covers featured. In addition to this is a copy of a non-Christmas Radio Times from the late 70's or early 80's.
The runner up will also win a copy of a non-Christmas Radio Times from the late 70's or early 80's.
Remember: PLEASE GIVE YOUR ANSWERS BY GIVING ME A PERSONAL MESSAGE. This is a quiz anyone can enter so obviously, the answers need to be kept out of public view until the next week's questions launch.
5) The quiz will close at midnight on Saturday October 17th. No entry will be accepted after midnight Saturday.
