I'm going to give you the official name of something, you are going to tell me what everybody usually calls it.

4   Given a formal name for the first time in 2012, The Queen Elizabeth Tower is often erroneously called what?

5   Why do most people know the folk song 'Bardon Green', once described by Billy Connelly as the English National Anthem?

6   How do most people refer to 43 Bierton Road, Aylesbury?

7   This song was originally called "Hooray for the Swedish Sauna", part of the soundtrack to an Italian 'adult' pseudo-documentary called "Sweden: Heaven and Hell", but has since been popularised by the Muppets, and is played regularly by Simon Mayo on Radio 2.

The Mah na Mah na one always brings a smile to my lips when I think of it - all those families who join in having no idea what its actually from!  (It was very soft core early 70s, mostly blondes running round nude from the clip I saw - I think possibly on a Charlie Brooker programme!)

As you can see I didn't do the normal kind of quiz - I wanted to do something a bit different.

Who's up for a 50/50 round?

1   Ant and Dec always try to stand the same way round on telly, to help people remember which is which.  As you look at your TV is Declan Donnelly on the left or the on the right?

2   The two sides of a coin are called the obverse and the reverse.  On which side is the queen's head on?

3   This year is the 200th anniversary of the battle of Waterloo.  When the French advanced towards Wellington's army, were they marching north or were they marching south?

4   In Thunderbirds, which Thunderbird does Virgil fly?  Thunderbird One, or Thunderbird two

5   Who has won the most Boat Races – Oxford or Cambridge

6   In Wembley Stadium is the Royal Box in the North Stand, or the South Stand

7   According to the St Mary's website, the present building dates from the 13th Century.  Is it from the first half of the century (1200-1249) or the second half (1250-1299)

8   Sir John Hampden – the Pointy Man statue in the [Aylesbury] town square – fought for which side in the English Civil War- Parliament or the King?

9   Which is the higher rank, an Army Captain or a Naval Captain?

10   If you were in space directly above the North Pole, looking down at the Earth, would it be spinning Clockwise, or anti-clockwise.

I pointed out even a monkey with a pin should get 5 right!

Oh...Blimey !

These will mostly be guesses, then..........

1. Never watch them, don't even know which is which.......Erm......Ant
2. Obverse (reasonably confident)
3. North (Complete guess)
4. Two. (if that's wrong , I'll be teed off....Scott flew TB 1)
5. Cambridge (At least they were in the lead the last tine  took any notice of that competition...But that was a long time ago.)
6. North (Guessing again)
7. First ? (Not a clue)
8. King ? (Not a clue)
9. Navy (Pretty sure that's right.)
10. Anti-clockwise (I think)

Cheers - A.Monkey. (Thow I bet I kan tipe better than ther Munkee.)

Right

2   The two sides of a coin are called the obverse and the reverse.  On which side is the queen's head on?
Heads is obverse

3   This year is the 200th anniversary of the battle of Waterloo.  When the French advanced towards Wellington's army, were they marching north or were they marching south?
North

4   In Thunderbirds, which Thunderbird does Virgil fly?  Thunderbird One, or Thunderbird two
Scott is one, Virgil is two.

5   Who has won the most Boat Races – Oxford or Cambridge
Cambridge overall, but since the turn of the century Oxford (and why can't other universities enter?)

6   In Wembley Stadium is the Royal Box in the North Stand, or the South Stand
North

7   According to the St Mary's website, the present building dates from the 13th Century.  Is it from the first half of the century (1200-1249) or the second half (1250-1299)
Really narrowing down where you live! Waves from Leighton Buzzard!
Oh, later...

8   Sir John Hampden – the Pointy Man statue in the [Aylesbury] town square – fought for which side in the English Civil War- Parliament or the King?
King (unfortunately)

9   Which is the higher rank, an Army Captain or a Naval Captain?
Navy.  Which is why marines onboard ship always class one rank higher than army.

10   If you were in space directly above the North Pole, looking down at the Earth, would it be spinning Clockwise, or anti-clockwise.
Withershins/anti-clockwise

If Will's right, I got more than that damn monkey !.....Huzzah !
Cheers - Phil

Hampden was a traitor - he fought for Parliament because he didn't want to pay the Ship Tax towards the Navy, on the basis Buckinghamshire had no coast line.  As an arguement that's up there with arguing for a tax reduction during the battle of Britain because your county doesn't contain any Fighter bases...

And I just assumed Aylesbury was a hotbed of Royalism!
