So a broad range from which "candidates demonstrated little knowledge" as exam reports would say. But all feedback is good feedback they say, so I have slightly adjusted the level for next week and will introduce more multiple choice just for @Boycie. Heres a prototype question to test you out.... Which famous WW2 aircraft was invented and developed in Southampton by R J Mitchell? A Concorde B Spitfire C Imperial Star Destroyer? ? I honestly didn’t know we had Concorde during the Second World War. Was it held back because it was too fast? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We all knew the answer to the fetishism question, but got it wrong on purpose so as to avoid embarrassment (actually I think @angieram got it right but her's was a guess ?)
