A novel approach leads to certain victory

Jo S

Harper Lee shot to fame in 1960 winning the Pulitzer Prize with her debut novel 'To Kill A Mockingbird', and in 2017, 3 ladies are set to achieve similar notoriety, in a team named after that great American novel - 'Tequila Mockingbird'. With an amazing score of 28 points, they strode out in front of their competition winning both free drinks rounds, and the grand title! What an amazing display of general knowledge! Much entertainment was had from 'Fumanchu', the most international team we've had of late, who gave their answers in a variety of languages, teaching us that the Spanish for "whey" is "suero", the film title "Seven" in Albania is "Shtatë", and in Italy, Scrooge MacDuck is known as Zio Paperone. That LEGO is popular the world over, came as no surprise to anyone. It was news, however, to each and everyone of us, that Barbie's middle name is in fact Millicent! Who knew?!
