Today’s questions will be answered in tomorrow’s Teaser.

The quizmaster’s decisions about scores are final.

Thank you for coming: have a good day.

*        The shopping wasn’t too bad, Olga.   OK, granted, there’s something I forgot, but at least I managed to get a haircut!   So that’s something.

        An alien that keeps changing face … ?   Naaaaah … it’s a bit implausible.   On a more serious note … ?   In No Time to Die, Lashana Lynch plays 007.   And does rather well.   (I think Cavill would be perfect.   He does a sympathetic Sherlock Holmes, as well.   How he’d do Bond, I don’t know.   I could see him as the 14th Doctor: but I don’t think the BBC could afford him, as The Witcher’s got a very good budget.)

        Happy Christmas!

†        See you later, Mum!

‡        It’s a VERY good film, Debbi: certainly on a par with Casino Royale.   But if you haven’t guessed who Lashana Lynch is playing, by now?   Well!
