A flower?
7/8 CORRECT
119/150 POINTS
Yeah, a little easy perhaps. Knowing very little about the subject I was fully expecting do very badly.

Now that is a bummer. No license? If so at least there are some you can still watch online eh? ( No I am not suggesting you watch the BBC on the sly, but the likes of UKTV play etc. )
Edit: Does that rule apply to everything on the BBC site, I thought it was just the telly? Surely you can still do the linked quiz? Half of the quiz was the older stuff from the first Doctors...

Well I could listen to Radio 4 I suppose, and I could have done the quiz but if any of it's new stuff I can't watch I'd have been operating under a handicap.
When it comes to what is and what isn't allowed I prefer to play it safe. I'd rather miss out unnecessarily than risk breaking the rules by accident.
Besides the google-box is reputed to rot the brain[1]. Not watching TV could be seen as an opportunity to restore the old grey matter or at least lessen the damage.
[1] I know this because the Oompa Loompas had a song about it and who am I to argue with the wisdom of little guys with orange faces and green hair?

Actually if you did try the quiz, even if you were handicapped, ( which I doubt would be a large handicap, because over half the quiz is Eccleston and before, ) it would give every one else a chance, because you are clearly the forum Dr. Who aficionado.
Also I am pretty sure it is just BBC tv you are missing out on.

Ok, this'll teach you all for doing better than me last week....
Hard Science & Technology Quiz
Got to recover from marking exam scripts before I do it. Coffee is involved....
Edit: hoist by my own petard... 5/20...
You can't even try it twice, because it tells you the right answers when you're done....

Trouble is I rushed it just to see how the scoring system worked and didn't try too hard, although I didn't know many of the answers. I'm sure I could have done better if i'd taken more time.
I wasn't expecting to see all the answers highlighted, which effectively prevented another try. Well it wouldn't have if I'd thought about it and not read through them like an idiot, but my brain has been dulled by marking after all.

7 / 20 and I'm kicking myself about the answer to question 9. Well I've been reminded what Deuterostomia consists of at least.
