    shameful that doctor who over our quiz:D


  • Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators Posts: 10,911 Mod ✭✭✭✭Ponster


    This quiz is a bitch. Have to correct everyone's spelling and then check each answer to see if it's correct or not :)

    2nd........I'm chuffed :)

    Thanks Ponster!

    Wrong answers are in bold



    1. Russia 6
    1. Canada 16
    1. Mexico 19

    1. Bermuda 1
    1. Cuba 1

    Russia was the best answer here. The USA has a water-border with it. The USA though doesn't share a border with Cuba nor Bermuda. (There is InternationL waters between Bermuda and the USA meaning that they don't have a touching border. And there is about 7-miles of International recognised "no-mans-land" between the USA's base on Cuba and Cuba proper.


    10. Douglas Hyde 2
    10. Eamon Devalera 3
    10. Mary Robinson 4
    10. Mary McAleese 4
    10. Patrick Hillery 4
    10. Sean T O'Kelly 6
    10. Cearbhall O Dalaigh 7
    10. Erskine Childers 11

    10. Gareth Fitzgearld 1
    10. griffith 1


    Douglas Hyde would have given you top points here. Fitzgearld though was never head of state.


    2. Spanish 3
    2. Romanian 3
    2. Portuguese 4
    2. Italian 6
    2. French 10


    2. Catalan 4
    2. English 2
    2. Galician 1
    2. Latvia 1
    2. Russia 1
    2. Sardinian 2
    2. Sicilian 2
    2. vulgar latin 1
    2. Walloon 2
    2. Welsh 1



    Some people here were trying to be clever. Others clearly didn't understand what a romance language is. I'm afraid I couldn't accept Catalan as being a major language as asked for in the question. There are only 5 major romance languages, the rest are either dialects or spoken by small number of peoples




    3. Chester Arthur 1
    3. John Tyler 1
    3. Grover Cleveland 1
    3. George Bush Snr 1
    3. Richard nixon 1
    3. Taft 1
    3. Warren Harding 1
    3. Eisenhower 2
    3. Harry Truman 2
    3. James Madison 2
    3. Bill Clinton 3
    3. William Henry Harrison 3
    3. woodrow wilson 3

    4. Roger Moore 2
    4. Pierce Brosnan 2
    4. Daniel Craig 4
    4. David Niven 4
    4. Sean Connery 7
    4. George Lazenby 12
    4. Timothy Dalton 11


    4. Roger Dalton 1


    I think someone got a little confused here :)


    5. Yellow 3
    5. Blue 3
    5. Green 4
    5. Violet 5
    5. Orange 7
    5. Indigo 8
    5. Red 10

    5. Purple 2
    5. Pink 1


    Pink? I didn't ask for the gay rainbow :) Also purple isn't a colour in the rainbow as defined by the question.

    6. Graham Norton 1
    6. Jackie Bramble 1

    6. Jeremy Kyle 3
    6. Richard and Judy 3
    6. Paul O'Grady 5
    6. J Ross 8
    6. Charlotte Church 11

    6. Jesper Carrott 1
    6. Maury 1
    6. Loose Women 2


    Jasper hosts a gameshow, not a chatshow. Maury is an American show and Loose women is a show, not the name of the presenter.





    7. Argentina 1
    7. Chile 1
    7. Paraquay 1
    7. Ecuador 3
    7. Bolivia 2
    7. Brazil 2
    7. Peru 6
    7. Suriname 10
    7. Guyana 11



    7. falkland islands 1
    7. French Guyana 4


    Neither of the 2 wrong answers are actually countries but dependencies.

    A lot of different answers here. I didn't accept any animals as family members and Todd their next-door neighbour the last time I checked :)

    On the question one. Guantanamo bay is territory of the USA, meaning cuba shares a border surely.
