I doubt it - both the 2007 and 2008 Christmas episodes of Doctor Who were repeated the following week (i.e. New Year's Day).

With all due respect to you pembo I do not think you should have extended the quiz deadline by 48 hours except in exceptional circumsatnces . If you make cut off point of Wednesday 12am then that should be it,. It is unfair on those who have entered on time - and everyone had a week to get their answers in .

Don't worry about waiting for my answers. I am at my sisters on my phone so internet coverage is limited because she lives out in the sticks. I'm posting on here using my network providers internet allowance. Next year though buddy, I suggest you start the quiz just after Christmas when interest is still around. The thread dies off towards the end of January.

Shouldnt I have 69 points rather than 58? I scored the maximum in week 1, and the only one I seem to have got wrong in week 2 is the Jekyll and Hyde one...

Woo-hoo if I still won though; thanks for the quiz pembo!

Of course I could just mention that six months today, my quiz launches and the prize this year consists of three brand new, specially made RT related items!

As a side issue, how do we think the RT will cover the EU referendum? It has often had great political covers and has covered elections using daleks in the past! Will it have Angela Merkel as Davros on the front cover this year as the referendum date nears?

Only when Who's been running at the same time. They'd have to tie it in with something different on this occasion. Bake Off maybe?

Good point.

Therefore, as it dull as it sounds, the week of the Referendum is obviously going to be linked to the European Football Championships.

Funny thing is, the England match three days before could potentially decide the outcome of the Referendum. Forget about the "deal", forget about the fear factors and non facts, if England lose that match and exit the Euro's it could be game over for the UK in the EU.

Another factor could, laughably, be the Eurovision Song Contest just one month before!

10 days before the referendum the country (most of it anyway) will be wrapped up in the Queen's 90th Birthday celebration weekend

Pembo, you put a lot of work into this so nothing to apologise for. I suggest next year that you ensure all questions have a single correct answer and start it very early in January [2nd?] when there are still a lot of people checking out the forum. Anyway thanks for all your effort.

Well said. I hope pembo does the quiz again, because it would be a good way to start the New Year. Teething problems, that's all it was.
