Nice one, doing an extension to your origianl quiz! :rolly2:

But I'll sit this one out as I'm NOT afraid to answer the questions, just DON'T feel in the mood to answer them right now, that's all. :rolly2: :rolly2:

Maybe I should also do a part two to my quiz aswell as there are plenty other questions that I can come up with. :rolly2: :rolly2: :rolly2:
:blpaw:
 
Those two answers were correct, Annette.

I'll give the rest of the answers next week unless someone can answer them first.

Bayleaf48, have your original Thunderbird questions been answered completely yet? Are you going to give the correct ones?
 
In reagards to my quiz, NO ONE yet has manaeg to answer all 10 questions & because of that NO ONE has managed to get all of them right either. :rolly2:

A to your quiz, it's a good idea doing it about ALL of Gerry Anderson's shows & not just one as it means that there's a fair chance for ALL who answer them od getting them right. :rolly2:

I am surprised you haven't a Gerry Anderson Forum---- There is a great deal of interest in his material and a new generation of young people watching the series . What he achieved with puppets is now being done with special effects. he deserves credit.
Not to get too serious!!! Love the sound of your quizzes.
 
Thanks Charlie :rolly2: , haven't got one yet :crying: , but there's a thread called Gerry Anderson Forum Yes Or No that has got a lot of support for one though. :rolly2:

Thanks Charlie. I have asked for a forum, but it's 'wait and see' at the moment.

I might try another quiz, but I think they were too hard, and the only other questions I could set would be harder still.
