Anyway, I know some of you lot love a good quiz question or two, so here are a selection of random questions. One guess for each question. No Googling. Ta

Which England boss made David Beckham Captain ?
What's the lowest score in darts that you cannot score with one dart ?
What is unusual about the ten day period October 5th 1582 to October 14th 1582 ?
Who is the most aired face in Britsih Televison history ?

If I remember correctly, didn't they do this thing with releasing all of Elvis's singles one week at a time a few years back? If I remember rightly they kept getting to No. 1 all after each other.
