01

Name a TV genre

Get a hint

Think of a category of television, rather than the title of one programme.

A stronger clue

One recorded high-scoring pick begins with “J” and has 8 letters or digits, excluding spaces and punctuation.

Show answers
  • Jiggle TVOne in a Krillion100points
  • Mo lei tauOne in a Krillion100points
  • Action horrorDeep Cut85points
  • Soap operaPlankton10points

The prompt asks for a type of programme. A show title and a genre are different kinds of answer; check the exact wording in the recorded list.

02

Name a device used to magnify things

Get a hint

Think about instruments that make an object appear larger.

  • Cyclops lensOne in a Krillion100points
  • ZograscopeOne in a Krillion100points
  • 4Pi microscopeDeep Cut85points

Stay with a device, rather than a person who uses it or an effect it creates. The reveal includes more specific instrument names as well as familiar ones.

03

Name a type of structure built underground (man-made)

Get a hint

Focus on something constructed below ground, not a natural formation.

A stronger clue

One recorded high-scoring pick begins with “D” and has 8 letters or digits, excluding spaces and punctuation.

Show answers
  • DeneholeOne in a Krillion100points
  • ErdstallOne in a Krillion100points
  • Archive vaultDeep Cut85points
  • TunnelPlankton10points

Both conditions matter: underground and made by people. A natural cave is not interchangeable with a purpose-built underground structure.

04

Name a body part an animal has for fighting or protection

Get a hint

Think about a structure on or in the animal, rather than a behaviour.

A stronger clue

One recorded high-scoring pick begins with “A” and has 9 letters or digits, excluding spaces and punctuation.

Show answers
  • AcrorhagiOne in a Krillion100points
  • Cuvierian tubulesOne in a Krillion100points
  • AcidoporeDeep Cut85points
  • TusksPlankton10points

The requested answer is a body part with a defensive or fighting role. Naming the animal alone does not satisfy the same question.

05

Name a type of sausage

Get a hint

Think about a named variety, rather than a dish that happens to contain sausage.

A stronger clue

One recorded high-scoring pick begins with “G” and has 8 letters or digits, excluding spaces and punctuation.

Show answers
  • GumpeselOne in a Krillion100points
  • LandjägerOne in a Krillion100points
  • AdrioDeep Cut85points
  • Italian sausagePlankton10points

A recognised variety is more precise than a broad ingredient. Preserve the spelling used in the reveal; the live game makes the final acceptance decision.

06

Name a board, card or hand game made for exactly two players

Get a hint

The important restriction is exactly two players, not simply a game that two people can play.

A stronger clue

One recorded high-scoring pick begins with “A” and has 6 letters or digits, excluding spaces and punctuation.

Show answers
  • AsaltoOne in a Krillion100points
  • LuzhanqiOne in a Krillion100points
  • ¡Abordaje!Deep Cut85points
  • Tic-tac-toePlankton10points

Check the intended player count as well as the game type. A game that supports two among several player counts does not automatically meet this wording.

07

Name a country in the Americas where Spanish is not the most widely spoken language

Get a hint

Think about language use across North America, South America and the Caribbean.

A stronger clue

One recorded high-scoring pick begins with “S” and has 28 letters or digits, excluding spaces and punctuation.

Show answers
  • Saint Vincent and the GrenadinesOne in a Krillion100points
  • Antigua and BarbudaDeep Cut85points
  • GrenadaDeep Cut85points
  • United StatesPlankton10points

This asks about the most widely spoken language, not whether Spanish has any speakers or official status. The country and the language condition both matter.
