Simple concept: 15 questions, each with a year as the answer, and all you have to do is guess the answer. You are not expected to know many of them exactly.

For each question you score the amount of years you are away from the correct answer. For example, if the question is 'In what year did England win the World Cup?' and you answer 1970, you would score 4 points as the correct answer is 1966. The person with the lowest score after 15 questions is the winner.

PM me your answers.

You may pass on one question. For which you will score zero points.

Deadline: 7pm on Monday 21st. Reveal will be the same evening.

So,

In What Year........

1. Was eBay founded?

2. Did Barack Obama become President of the USA?

3. Did Neil Armstrong walk on the moon?

4. Did the Euro notes and coins first come into circulation?

5. Were Take That originally formed?

6. Was the first James Bond film, Dr No, released?

7. Did Bucks Fizz win the Eurovision Song Contest with 'Making Your Mind Up'?

8. Did Manchester United win the Champions League with two late goals to defeat Bayern Munich?

9. Was the film Braveheart released?

10. Was Madonna born?

11. Was the first iPhone released?

12. Was the President of the United States, John F. Kennedy, assassinated?

13. Did Coronation Street first air on TV?

14. Did Michael Jackson die?

15. Was the first Harry Potter book released?

How can I be "certain" when Coronation Street started but not when Obama was elected . . . . dam my brain.

Brilliant idea.
