The 31 Day August Quiz Challenge

This month I have decided to run a quiz. Some of the questions you may know the answer to immediately, others you may need to go searching to find the answer to the question. Each day in August 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 August 2017 and runs until the end of the month. The last question will be shown on 31st August 2017, with the winner being announced here on 1st September. The winner will then have 24 hours to claim their £10 cash prize.
