We were back in the UK ths week for a short stay, and obviously took in a quiz (or several). Here's one highlight!

Your target this week:

1+ out of 2: We'd have won with you on our team!

The attendees
1) The statistician
2) The doctor
3) The programmer
4) The misandrist
5) The saxophonist

The ones that got away
1) 2 point question: for one point each, name the members of this double act.

The answers

1) Nick Clegg and David Cameron

Our excuse

1) Our first quiz in the UK for over a year and we drop just one question, but it was still enough to cost us victory. We quite quickly decided these were a young Richard and Judy and didn't give it much more thought.

How did you do? Would you have beaten us (1 point or more)? Let the world know with the poll below, then read on for my alternative questions (loosely) inspired by this week's Ones That Got Away!


My alternative question
1) Continuing the theme, rendered in Lego behind the button below are the seven party leaders who featured in that big TV debate which everyone said looked like a gameshow. Your task is to identify which party (not the leaders' names specifically) each of these figures is representing. 5 out of 7 gets you 1 point, while a perfect score gets you 2! (And in case you're wondering, I have jumbled the order from how they appeared on stage and the background colours aren't too much help.)

The answers

1) From left to right: Labour, Green, SNP, Plaid Cymru, Liberal Democrats, Conservatives, UKIP (represented by Ed Miliband, Natalie Bennett, Nicola Sturgeon, Leanne Wood, Nick Clegg, David Cameron and Nigel Farage, respectively) - via LEGOLAND Discovery Centre Manchester
