The 31 Day October Quiz Challenge

Due to popular demand this month I am returning with a quiz. I’m sure like last time some of the questions will know straight away, with others taking a little more time to work out – and even have you go searching for the answer. Each day in October a new question will be displayed below. If you manage to answer a question correctly you will receive 2 entries into the draw. If you get the question wrong you will receive 1 entry (just for giving it a try). All entries will be pooled at the end of the month and one winner drawn at random.
The competition started on 1st October 2017 and runs until the end of the month. The last question will be shown on 31st October 2017, with the winner being announced here on 1st November 2017. The winner will then have 24 hours to claim their £10 cash prize, so be sure to check back.
