My favourite thing when going through the answer sheets is seeing the frantic scribbling and people's thought processes particularly for the 2 anagram questions and the parts involving a connection.

The anagram questions were:

1. SOME TART HERE is an anagram of which famous historic person born in 1910?
2. I WIN RACES LOL is an anagram of which retired sportsman?

And the connection questions involved firstly identifying Jack Johnson, Queen, BB King and Ace of Base from four songs and then realising that they are connected by Jack, Queen, King, Ace.

The other connection involved answer 9 questions and working out the connection. The 9 correct answers were:

• Chinese Checkers
• Clipper
• Nick Clegg
• Chandelier
• Chip
• Thumbelina
• Shiny Happy
• Winchester
• Cape Fear

And the connection is...

...each answer contains a part of the body in its wording.
