That's what we've all been talking about, while trying not to talk about it.

32/35, stumbled on the same one as everyone else (warships), also the number of Soviet civilian deaths, and who Britain signed that 20 year treaty with.

31/35

This one really pissed me off since it was so subjective:
(Edit: I see, I am far from alone with this one )
 


Yeah well how the Hell can I smell what this page understands under "major warships".

34/35. I faltered on the major warship like most. I guessed on the answer to the Dambusters squadron leader question but got lucky.

missed two.

One I had no idea who the Bevin Boys were.

The other I got wrong was when I pressumed to think 'major' meant 'capital'.
