I can only hazard a guess at 27. I have no idea what 26 could be, so I guess I am beaten before I even started - 0 points!

I was useless at Spanish in school. I took German and French instead. All I can say is "?Hay una discotheca por aqui?", and that's only because it was a Pet Shop Boys song. It's not such a useful phrase.

I'll have a think about it in bed. Casa is Spanish for house (OK, I remember that). My house is your house? This is the only thing I can think of.

North African seaport? I keep thinking of Alexandra Palace, but this isn't on the tube map - unless I have completely misunderstood, and you are including Northern Heights.

Are these questions Trivial Pursuit questions or something similar as searching question 26 on the internet someone asked that exact question on Yahoo Questions 2 years ago so I can only assume these questions are from a bank?
