I'm sure they get hundreds of correct answers.

I wonder if it makes any difference how you write the answers.

For example:
"Apollo 18" is "Apollo 18"
but
"2 little boys by Ralph Harris" is probably more correct as "Two little boys by Ralph Harris"
and
"1 nation under God" is probably better as "one nation under God"

guardianangel

Many thanks for those.

No 57) I had Fast Five ...the recent movie..but yes it could also be Famous Five..What do you think guys ?

guardianangel

I wonder if it matters..never thought of that

I think it's Fast Five

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fast_Five

otherwise it would be "TF 5" for "The Famous Five"

51. Moves like Jaggor by Maroon 5

I believe this is Jagger with an "e".

brian_t

I'd like to apologise in advance.
I feel very pedantic making these corrections.
