I regularly set a quiz in an internet chat room (not aviation related). It's tricky judging your audience - make the questions too easy and it becomes a matter of who can type fastest, make them too hard and people get fed up never knowing the answers and don't come back.

I've had a couple of goes setting a clue on here which were obviously too easy (solved in less than an hour each time) but on the other hand this one is now around a fortnight old with no sign of being solved. Might I respectfully suggest we aim for something midway between 'Daily Mirror' and 'Listener' - 'Telegraph' standard perhaps?

Ready to be flamed if it's not what people want.
