I need just one more set to make the quiz viable. If that entails answering "Susie Dent" for every question, so be it.

There was a round with just 2 competitors before, I believe. But, please, if anyone could put answers together, I would appreciate it, as otherwise there wasn't much point me making the effort. Remember, all quizzes in this series count.

No, sorry, this is of no interest to me, I have to have an interest to devote time and effort to it

Did you know that on Friday, Kirk Bevins set only the second "perfect game" (a game where he got the best words/numbers solution) since the show's relaunch in 2001. He also holds the other one.
