Actually, looking at the answers, I think I only actually got 12 points if you needed both locations of the racing on Ch4. That would mean Altally should have been in second place and me third.

Well done marke09.
Thanks to wizzywick for running the competition. Like others, my condolences for your loss. Really struggling for my front cover entry this year. Last years was a bit out of left field. I'm sure by 1 November I'll have come up with something. |

The Quiz will return next year with a new 6 week run starting on August 28th 2016. Cheers.
Talking of which, it's brilliant to know next year's date already, and it is in my Apple calendar, together with quarter way, half way, and three quarter way points, which will make it come round really quickly! |
