    4. A state in the USA beginning with the letter M

    Out of eight potential answers, seven of them were chosen. But which one did people gravitate towards? Was it the beautiful, coastal state of Maine, the hardest state to spell correctly, Massachusetts, or the state sharing its name with a well-known river, Mississippi?

    The answer to my question is ‘none of them’, as it is actually Michigan which ends up on top. It is quite a low-scoring Sheep, however, which would have been a waste of a Double.

    5. A prime minister of the UK (1960-2000)

    There were only three different answers nominated here, one of which is the incumbent PM, who was nominated by more than one person. Which one of these ‘fine’ individuals did you throw your support behind?

    The Iron Lady is a big scorer - and even bigger still if you were one of the lucky 7 to nominate it as their Double Or Nothing. Some people seem to have mis-read the time period in the question, which isn’t promising for the next round either… :pac:

    * Biggest 'M' state in terms of population.
    * Big lake.
    * Easier to spell than Massachusetts or Mississippi
    * Much talked about swing state in the Election.
    * Mean Girls reference ;)

    A seismic shift at the top of the table, as cee_jay becomes the new leader thanks to a Doubled score. And a pretty good one at that. Will his other answers be good enough to hold off the future Doubles to come?
