On the second #harlequiz of advent ...
Gosh! So far into December already. Anyway, enough idle chit chat. Here is tonight's quiz. As usual, 25 questions with a theme (sort of) running through the answers. It's one of those instances where the theme is a word - so you might be looking for answers that go with the theme, or you might be looking for things that fit within the category of the theme, or you might even be looking for the theme word to be hidden in some of your answers. All clear?
Anyway, you don't have to look for the theme, but it might help you if you do get it. If you do look for it, beware soundalikes, spellalikes, and instances where you have to put consecutive answers together. Good luck! x
