Lol. Unfortunately this is the only answer I am missing from 10 in a comp in work for 200 quid. Hopefully no one else will get it either as there are a couple of other questions which I doubt people will get.

Im going with that. Good shout Jay Dee.

One of the others was:
Yo Yo is the answer but what is the question ?

Isobar

I'd have said the Price of Freedom....

That's my guess and I'm sticking with it.

Yeah, I was thinking about the price of democracy but talk is cheap makes sense when the price for speech is much lower than the others.

The Yo Yo question is: What was the first toy in space?

Heres a few of the other questions so:
1. Which is the most remote city from the sea in the world?
2. What was quarantined from 1942 till 1990 & for what reason?
3. I am facetious, I am also abstemious, & I sometimes get pneumonia. Given these clues, what is the only American tree I will like?
4. My password is 11 letters long, which uses letter A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, J and K. All letters are used once as follows: A before D but after B. H before F. F before G. I before J. H after K. K before F. F after D. D before G. G after E. E before D. C before E. E after B. I after G. B before C but after H. C before G. A after E. What is my password?
5. With thieves I consort, with the vilest in short, I am quite at ease in depravites, yet all divines use me, for I am the centre of gravity – What am I ?

Enjoy.

I googled this rather than knowing it so I won't post it here. But you can find the answer on www.guinnessworldrecords.com.
