A quiet new year (or old year) quiz. As in the past, please DON'T give answers in the thread. They will be posted later (in a post mortem thread). Anyone wishing to PM me with a list, I'll post the results.
There is (as always) a theme, but if I were to give any more clues it would be a dead giveaway.
There is a decided UK slant to several of the questions, but that's where I am!
