This week I am giving you the answers at the start! All the answers are the numbers (or in some cases the text rather than the numerals) in the range 1 to 10 but not necessarily in ascending order. There is an an answer for each number in the range.

1) How many Olympic gold medals has Mo Farrah won?

2) How many times has a film directed by Steven Speilberg been nominated for Best Picture?

3) How many cylinders does a Honda CBR500R motorbike have?

4) What is the Square Root of 36?

5) Excluding Pluto (he's a cartoon dog!) how many planets are there in our solar system?

6) How many Deadly Sins are there in Chistianity?

7) On the Periodic Table, what number is Lithium?

8) How many seasons of the detective series "Lewis" have there been?

9) What was the title of the single released by U2 in Feb 1992?

10) Wood is the traditional gift choice after how many years of marriage?

    1, = 4
    2, = 10
    3, = 2
    4, = 6
    5, = 8
    6, = 7
    7, = 3 atomic number dont know if its the same
    8, = 9
    9, = 1 (written as one)
    10, = 5

    questions 2 and 8 may be the wrong way round as they were the 2 numbers left after doing the rest so I just guessed.

    Another brilliant quiz @QUICKFEET

    (1) 4
    (4). 6
    (6). 7 (many more for the more Puritanical sects ;))
    (7). 3

    Here are the answers:

    2) How many times has a film directed by Steven Speilberg been nominated for Best Picture? 10 But he has only won that category once with Schindler's List. He has also been nominated as Best Director 7 times, winning twice with Schindler's List and Saving Private Ryan

    I thought it was tough this week although I made some of the questions easier at the last minute. I changed "How many times have Aston Villa won the FA Cup?" to the 7 Deadly Sins and replaced "What version of Android was code named "Marshmallow" to the Square Root of 36 (6).

    Well done to @TheEdge949 on getting 10 out of 10!
